Poly(2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline) for Immunotherapeutical Applications |
초록 |
Poly(2-oxazolines) represent the group of biocompatible polymers with defined structures with the potential towards different biomedical applications. Poly(2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline) (PIPOx) is a special member of this group, since it can be prepared by free-radical polymerization of 2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline, which is proceeding on vinyl group and the reactive 2-oxazoline unit remains on the side chain. This polymer can be used for further functionalization and modification with biologically active substances as proteins, polysaccharides, or drugs. In this work, cytotoxicity and immunotoxicity of prepared PIPOx polymers was assessed using the cell viability MTT test and ELISA assay monitoring the expression of cytokines. We demonstrated that PIPOx has immunomodulatory properties and can specifically modulate the immune response.
