초록
Poly (γ-benzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG)와 말단에 아미노기를 갖는 Polyethylene glycol (PEG)의 치환반응을 행하여 PEG-grafted PBLG (PEG-g-PBLG)를 합성하였다. 또한 PEG-g-PBLG 필름표면에 ethanolamine(EA)을 치환반응하여 표면에 히드록시그룹을 갖는 PEG-g-PBLG-EA 필름을 얻었다. 폴리펩티드중합체와 혈액성분과의 상호작용에 관한 실험결과, PEG-g-PBLG 상에서의 혈소판의 점착율 및 형태변화는 PEG-g-PBLG-EA보다 적게 나타났고, PEG-g-PBLG상에서의 혈장 단백질의 응고시간은 PEG-g-PBLG-EA 또는 PBLG의 응고시간보다 길게 나타났다. 이들 결과는 혈액응고시간 및 혈액응고량을 조사한 실험결과와 일치하였다. 따라서 폴리펩티드상의 히드록시그룹은 혈액성분과의 상호작용을 강하게 하여 혈액적합성이 저하하는 반면, PEG-g-PBLG는 비교적 좋은 혈액적합성을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.
Polyethylene glycol (PEG) grafted poly (γ-benzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG) was synthesized by the substitution reaction of PBLG and PEG having primary amino groups at both ends. PEG-g-PBLG films containing hydroxyl group were also prepared by the substitution reaction of PEG-g-PBLG film and ethanolamine (EA). Adhesion of platelets and activation of plasma proteins on the copolypeptide films were studied. The results showed that platelets are less adhered and activated on the PEG-g-PBLG than on other polypeptides and plasma recalcification time (PRT) on the PEG-g-PBLG was longer than that on other polypeptides. These results were consistent with those of blood clotting time and thrombus formation on the polypeptides. As a results, PEG-g-PBLG surfaces showed better blood compatibility than PBLG or PEG-g-PBLG-EA surfaces.
