Weakly acidic pH-responsive liposomal content release induced by histidine-modified agents.
Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry 2024 March 23
Internal stimuli-responsive controlled release from liposomal vesicles is an innovative approach for site-specific delivery of therapeutic drugs. In this study, to enhance the endosomal pH control of drug release from liposomes, a series of histidine-modified pH-sensitive C n -His ( n = 8, 12, 18) agents were designed and utilized as triggers for liposomal content release. The pH-dependent properties of C n -His-incorporated liposomes were characterized using dynamic light scattering, ζ-potential, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The liposomes maintained a relatively uniform size across all pH conditions. However, the ζ-potential exhibited positive values at endosomal acidic pH levels and neutral or negative values at physiological pH levels. Furthermore, acidic pH-dependent release of both polar content (carboxyfluorescein) and nonpolar content (Nile red) was observed from the C n -His-incorporated liposomes. Notably, with C12-His as the pH sensitizer, the pH dependence of liposomal content release was significantly evident. This work establishes endosomal pH-controllable liposome platforms, laying the groundwork for developing clinically applicable triggered release formulations.
