Abstract:
Objective To preparation a kind of Herceptin loaded and breast cancer targeted high molecular polymer ultrasound contrast agent and investigate their affinity for breast cancer in vitro. Methods The high molecular polymer PLGA-COOH ultrasound contrast agents were produced by the double emulsion technique. Herceptin was covalently linked to the PLGA-COOH nanoparticle surface using a carbodiimide technique. Its physical property was determined. The combination of Herceptin with the PLGA-COOH nanoparticle was proved by immunofluorescent assay,and the PLGA-COOH nanoparticle targeting specifity to breast cancer cells was observed with light microscope and confocal microscope,normal PLGA-COOH nanoparticle was served as control group. Results The diameter range of targeted high molecular polymer ultrasound contrast agents was 466.8～857.6 nm, the average diameter was (662.2 ± 69. 7) nm,85.9% of the diameter was in the range. Green punctiform fluorescence was observed by fluorescence microscope,and the conjugation of the targeted high molecular polymer ultrasound contrast agents with MCF-7 cells was tight while the conjugation in control group was negative. Conclusions The Herceptin loaded PLGA-COOH targeted ultrasound contrast agents was prepared successfully. The targeted ultrasound contrast agents can bind to breast cancer effectively in vitro.
