[Abstract]
Objective Oleic acid (OA) was modified onto the hydroxypropyl chitosan (HPCS) molecular chain through grafting reaction to synthesize the HPCS/OA polymer carrier. Cannabidiol nanomicelles (CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs) were prepared and their antitumor activities were studied. Methods Taking particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), and Zeta potential as evaluation indicators, the preparation method of blank nanomicelles of HPCS/OA was screened by single-factor experiments. Its structure was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy (1H-NMR) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and its critical micelle concentration (CMC) was determined. CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs was prepared by dialysis method, and its key physicochemical properties such as particle size, PDI, Zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, drug loading and solubility were determined. The morphology was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM). The in vitro stability and drug release of micelles in simulated physiological and cell culture environments were evaluated. The biological safety was investigated through hemolytic experiments. The inhibitory effect of CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs on the SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells was evaluated by the CCK-8 method. The uptake of CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs by SKOV3 cells was analyzed by fluorescence microscopy. The effect of CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs on the migration ability of SKOV3 cells was investigated through cell scratch assay, and its anti-tumor effect was preliminarily clarified. Results The HPCS/OA polymer carrier was successfully synthesized. The optimal prescription process is as follows: OA dosage 0.6 mL, reaction time 6 h, and reaction temperature 60 ℃.The CMC of HPCS/OA blank nanomicelles prepared under this condition was 0.010 2 mg·mL-1.The CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs showed a regular spherical shape under TEM. The particle size, PDI and Zeta potential were (194.80 ±1.2) nm, 0.27 ±0.01 and (39.13 ±3.46) mV, respectively. The encapsulation efficiency was (72.85 ±0.37) %, and the drug loading was (29.14 ±0.21) %. Its solubility in water is 290 μg·mL-1, which is 743 times higher than that of free CBD. Stability test results showed that CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs had no significant change in particle size after 168 h storage in simulated physiological and cell culture environment (P > 0.05), indicating good stability of micelles. The hemolytic test results indicated that CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs had a relatively low hemolysis rate and good biocompatibility. The CCK-8 results showed that the blank nanomicelles of HPCS/OA had no cytotoxicity. The median inhibitory concentration (IC50) of CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs on SKOV3 cells was 8.51 μg·mL-1 after 24 h of administration. Fluorescence microscopy observation confirmed that the uptake efficiency of CBDHPCS/OA-NMs by SKOV3 cells was significantly stronger than that of free CBD. The cell scratch assay indicated that the inhibitory effect of CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs on the migration of SKOV3 cells was significantly better than that of free CBD (P < 0.05). Conclusion The CBD-HPCS/OA-NMs prepared in this study can effectively improve the water solubility and stability of CBD, and has both good biological safety and in vitro anti-tumor activity.
