14、非小细胞肺癌的治疗1,2。由于PTX在水中溶解度极低,临床以聚氧乙烯蓖麻油和乙醇溶解后给药,给药后存在严重过敏反应、肾毒性、神经毒性、心脏毒性等不良反应,使其临床应用受到限制3,4。为消除毒副作用,提高PTX在水中的分散性,设计新的更能被接受的剂型以淘汰含有Cremophor的传统剂型成为当前的研究热点,如微乳、胶束、囊泡、前体药物、包合物、脂质体、纳米粒等5-11。聚合物囊泡(Polymersome)是由合成或天然改性的双亲性聚合物自组装构成、具有类似脂质体双层结构的封闭空腔球体或类球体。相对于表面活性剂、脂质体等小分子囊泡,聚合物囊泡有着分子可设计性好、囊泡强度高、稳定性好、渗透性强等优点
15、 12,13。作为药物载体时,同脂质体一样具有组织相容性和细胞透过性,但不像脂质体容易受氧化或水解,也不易泄漏药物。药物被聚合物囊泡包封后,可以起到增效、减毒、缓释、增加药物稳定性和靶向等作用;表面修饰后,则可赋予囊泡在血液中长循环和靶向等特性14,15。近年来,随着大分子自组装的飞速发展,以聚合物囊泡作为一类新型药物载体的研究得到了广泛的关注。叶酸是一种糖基化磷脂肌醇连接的膜糖蛋白,其受体在许多肿瘤细胞中过度表达,而在绝大多数正常组织中几乎不表达,同时叶酸无毒、免疫原性弱、稳定, 与叶酸受体的结合力强,对肿瘤有高度选择性16-18。因此,将叶酸连接到聚合物囊泡表面,赋予聚合物囊泡对肿瘤细胞的
