A Facile Strategy for <i>In Situ</i> Controlled Delivery of Doxorubicin with a pH-Sensitive Injectable Hydrogel
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In light of the challenges along with the traditional intravenous administration of chemotherapeutics, injectable hydrogel-drug system emerges as a powerful tool for noninvasive and in situ controlled-release of drugs. Herein, we report a novel strategy of drug delivery system with pH responsive injectable hydrogels by taking advantages of two biomaterials. The first one is a pH sensitive polymer-drug (prodrug) conjugate, poly (ethylene glycol)–doxorubicin (MPEG–DOX) with hydrazone linkage. This prodrug interacted with a second biomaterial, α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) under mild conditions and subsequently formed the hydrogels in minutes with tunable stiffness. The gels showed a sustained release behavior dependent on the surrounding pH and released drugs effectively killed tumor cells (MCF-7). The quick cell uptake and efficient intracellular delivery of DOX were observed under a confocal microscope. This study thus provides a novel and simple drug encapsulation strategy to deliver poorly soluble drugs in situ for a potential targeted chemotherapy.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
