What is Synthesis and characterization of a novel biocompatible pseudo-hexagonal NaCa-layered double metal hydroxides for smart pH-responsive drug release of dacarbazine and enhanced anticancer activity in malignant melanoma about?
Layered metal hydroxides have exhibited remarkable benefits in drug delivery, days or even weeks of continuous drug release with improved bioavailability and minimized adverse effects. Here, we report synthesis of a new M (Na) and M (Ca) layered double metal hydroxide-based phases with the general formula of [NaCa(OH)] (NO), and 3D pseudo-hexagonal morphology. NaCa layered double metal hydroxide (NaCa-LDH), which is biodegradable, biocompatible, and pH-sensitive, could have broad applicability in drug release and other biomedical applications. Dacarbazine (DAC) is one of the most commonly used chemotherapy drugs for treating various cancers. However, its poor water solubility, short half-life in blood circulation, low response rate and high side effects limit its application. This study aimed to increase its half-life and anticancer activity; minimize its side effects; and prolong its drug release by intercalating of DAC in biodegradable NaCa-LDH (DAC-LDH). Results from the intercalation process show that NaCa-LDH is able to intercalate DAC with a simple procedure and with a good drug loading (38% w/w) through a one pot reaction. The DAC shows a sustained and pH-sensitive release,
