  • Biodegradable poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone-co-L-lactide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol) (PCLA-b-PEG) copolymers were synthesized via solution polymerization by varying the feed composition of $\varepsilon$-caprolactone ($\varepsilon$-CL) and L-lactide (LLA) ($\varepsilon$-CL: LLA= 10:0, 7:3, 5:5, 3:7, 0: 10). The feed ratio based on weight is in accordance with the copolymer composition except for the case of $\varepsilon$-CL: LLA=3:7 (C3L7), which was verified by $^1H$-NMR. Two different approaches were used for the exceptional case, which is an extension of the reaction time or the sequential introduction of the monomer. A copolymer composition of $\varepsilon$-CL: LLA=3:7 could be obtained in either case. The chemical microstructure of PCLA-b-PEG was determined using the $^{13}C$-NMR spectra and the effect of the sequential structure on the thermal properties and crystallinity were examined. Despite the same composition ratio of the copolymer, the microstructure can differ according to the reaction conditions.

  • 본 연구에서는 생체분해성 폴리에스터 계열의 glycolide, L-lactide 및 ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone 단량체를 이용하여 2단계 중합법에 의한 삼원 공중합체를 제조하여, DSC를 이용한 비등온 결정화 거동을 고찰하였다. 보다 더 정확한 거동을 검토하기 위하여 Avrami 식과 Ozawa 식을 조합하여 비등온 결정화 거동을 고찰하였다. 과냉각도를 분석한 결과 PGCLA21의 값이 가장 큰 값을 보이고 있으며 L-lactide 함량이 증가함에 따라 과냉각도는 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 수정된 Avrami 식을 이용하여 다양한 냉각속도에서 비등온 결정화 거동 결정화 속도 상수는 큰 경향을 보이고 있지 않는 것을 알 수 있었다. Avrami 및 Ozawa 식을 조합하여 특정한 상대적 결정화도에서의 냉각함수를 구한결과 L-lactide 함량이 증가하면서 PGCL과 비교시 결정화 속도를 향상시키는 역할을 하고 있는 것으로 여겨지는 반면 PGCLA41과 PGCLA21을 비교시 L-lactide 함량이 일정 이상 증가시 logF(T) 값이 큰 것을 확인 할 수 있는데 이는 동일한 결정을 얻는데 더 많은 냉각 속도를 필요로 한다는 것을 의미하며 결정화 속도 향상에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 전기방사법을 사용하여 poly(L-lactide-$co$-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PLCL)과 marine collagen (MC)이 혼합된 나노섬유를 제조하는 것이다. 전기방사된 나노섬유의 직경과 형태는 여러 공정 변수에 의해서 변화되는데, PLCL과 MC의 혼합비, 노즐과 콜렉터와의 거리, 노즐의 직경, 용액의 방출 속도 그리고 전기장의 세기 변화에 따라 나노파이버의 직경을 주사전자현미경을 통해서 분석하였다. 또한 제조된 나노파이버의 표면변화를 확인하기 위해 물과의 접촉각을 측정하였으며, 나노파이버의 세포 친화성을 평가하기 위해 MG-63을 이용하여 생존율과 흡착형태를 주사전자현미경과 형광현미경을 통해서 관찰하였다. 이와 같은 연구 결과, 방사거리, MC의 함량, 전기장의 세기가 증가할수록 제조된 나노파이버의 평균직경은 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 또한 MC의 함량이 증가할수록 나노파이버의 친수성이 증가하였고 세포독성은 관찰되지 않았다. 이에 따라 해양유래 생물에서 추출한 콜라겐은 조직공학용 소재에 새롭게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

  • Copolymerization of L-lactide and s-caprolactone initiated by tin (II) octoate (Sn(Oct)$_2$) was carried out in supercritical chlorodifluoromethane (R22) with varying reaction conditions (time and temperature) and amounts of monomer and catalyst, under a pressure of 250 bar. The optimum conditions were a reaction time of 10 h and a temperature of 130 $^{\circ}C$, which is similar to the temperature used in bulk copolymerization system. The conversion increased from 56% to 76% by increasing the reaction time from 1 to 10 h. The molecular weight also increased to 75,900 g.mol$^{-1}$ over the same period, while the increased monomer concentration resulted in a high molecular weight of 86,400 g.mol$^{-1}$ and a monomer conversion of 84%. Raising the reaction temperature from 90 to 130 $^{\circ}C$ increased the monomer conversion as well as the poly-L-lactide-co-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone (PLCL) molecular weight. The variation on the stannous octoate catalyst suggested that less catalyst would decrease the caprolactone content of the polymer.

  • Electrospun nanofibers prepared with synthetic biodegradable polymer have some limitations in regulating adhesion, proliferation, and spreading of cells because of their surface hydrophobicity and absence of cell-interaction. In this study, we functionalized the electrospun poly(L-lactide-co-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PLCL) nanofibers with acrylic acid (AAc) to modulate their surface hydrophilicity using electron-beam irradiation method and then measured grafting ratio of AAc, water contact angle, and ATR-FTIR of AAc-grafted nanofibers. A grafting ratio of AAc on the nanofibers was increased as irradiation dose and AAc concentration were increased. AAc-grafted nanofibers also have higher wettability than non-modified nanofibers. In conclusion, those surface-modified nanofibers may be an essential candidate to regulate cell attachment in tissue engineering applications.

  • 메톡시폴리에틸렌글리콜(MPEG)과 카프로락톤(CL)과 L-락타이드(LA)로 구성된 MPEG-PCLA 블록공중합체의 단량체를 다양한 비율로 $Sn(Oct)_2$의 존재 하에서 개환중합을 통해 합성하였다. MPEG-PCLA 블록공중합체의 특성은 $^1H-NMR$, GPC, DSC 그리고 XRD를 이용하여 결정하였다. 동역학적 변화를 측정하기 위하여 $Sn(Oct)_2$의 존재 하에서 MPEG-PCLA 블록공중합체의 중합 시 중합시간, 온도, 첨가하는 촉매의 양을 달리하면서 중합을 실시하였다. 그 결과 $110\;^{\circ}C$의 중합온도와 첨가하는 촉매의 양은 개시제 대비 1.2배의 경우에서 가장 높은 중합률을 보였다. 또한 합성된 블록공중합체의 수용액상에서의 시간에 따른 생분해 거동은 GPC를 이용한 분자량 분포의 비교를 통해 측정하였다. 합성된 블록공중합체의 생분해 거동을 측정한 결과 MPEG-PCLA 블록공중합체의 L-락타이드 함량이 증가할수록 생분해성도 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 MPEG-PCLA 블록공중합체의 $Sn(Oct)_2$의 존재 하에서 개환중합을 실시함에 있어 다양한 중합조건에 따른 중합속도를 확인하였으며 MPEG-PCLA 블록공중합체는 PCLA 블록의 PCL 대비 PLA의 함량 비율에 따라 생분해 기간을 조절할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

  • Biodegradable and elastic poly(L-lactide-co-$\varepsilon$-caprolactone) (PLCL) was electrospun to prepare nanofibers, and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) was then grafted onto their surfaces under aqueous conditions using $^{60}Co-{\gamma}$ irradiation. The graft yield increased with increasing irradiation dose from 5 to 10 kGy and the nanofibers showed a greater graft yield compared with the firms. SEM confirmed that the PLCL nanofibers maintained an interconnected pore structure after grafting with NIPAAm. However, overdoses of irradiation led to the excessive formation of homopolymer gels on the surface of thc PLCL nanofibers. The equilibrium swelling and deswelling ratio of the PNIPAAm-g-PLCL nanofibers (prepared with 10 kGy) was the highest among the samples, which was consistent with the graft yield results. The phase-separation characteristics of PNIPAAm in aqueous conditions conferred a unique temperature-responsive swelling behavior of PNIPAAm-g-PLCL nanofibers, showing the ability to absorb a large amount of water at < $32^{\circ}C$, and abrupt collapse when the temperature was increased to $40^{\circ}C$. In accordance with the temperature-dependent changes in swelling behavior, the release rate of indomethacin and FITC-BSA loaded in PNIPAAm-g-PLCL nanofibers by a diffusion-mediated process was regulated by the change in temperature. Both model drugs demonstrated greater release rate at $40^{\circ}C$ relative to that at $25^{\circ}C$. This approach of the temperature-controlled release of drugs from PNIPAAm-g-PLCL nanofibers using gamma-ray irradiation may be used to design drugs and protein delivery carriers in various biomedical applications.

  • 의료용 금속스텐트는 관상동맥계 심장질환을 앓고 있는 환자에 시술되어 상대적으로 생존율을 높여 준다. 그러나, 재협착 및 후기 혈전증으로 인하여 새로운 스텐트의 개발이 시급하게 되었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 신생내막 과대증식을 막을 수 있는 것으로 알려진 alpha lipoic acid(ALA)를 생분해성 고분자인 poly(lactide-coglycolide)(PLGA), poly(L-lactide)(PLLA) 및 poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone)(PCL)과 혼합하여 전기분사 방식으로 스테인레스 스틸 표면 위에 코팅하였다. 코팅된 고분자로부터 약물방출 거동은 고분자의 종류와 농도, 용출속도 및 용매의 종류에 따라서 조사하였다. 약물방출 속도는 유리전이온도($T_g$)가 낮은 PCL에서 가장 빨랐으며 PLGA, PLLA 순서를 보였다. 고분자 표면의 거친정도는 용출속도가 증가함에 따라서 증가하였고, 용매의 비등점의 차이에 의해서 약물방출속도가 변화됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 약물방출 거동을 조절함으로써 ALA가 담지된 생분해성 고분자로 코팅된 약물방출 스텐트를 실제 임상적용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

  • pH-sensitive block copolymers were synthesized by coupling reaction of sulfamethazine and amphiphilic diblock copolymer, and their micellization-demicellization behavior was investigated. Sulfamethazine (SM), a derivative of sulfonamide, was introduced as a pH responsive moiety while methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)poly(D,L-lactide) (MPEG-PDLLA) and methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-poly($D,L-lactide-co-{\varepsilon}-caprolactone$) (MPEG-PCLA) were used as biodegradable amphiphilic diblock copolymers. After the sulfamethazine was carboxylated by the reaction with succinic anhydride, the diblock copolymer was conjugated with sulfamethazine by coupling reaction in the presence of DCC. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) and mean diameter of the micelles were examined at various pH conditions through fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. For MPEG-PDLLA-SM and MPEG-PCLA-SM solutions, the pH-dependent micellization-demicellization was achieved within a narrow pH band, which was not observed in the MPEG-PDLLA and MPEG-PCLA solutions. The micelle showed a spherical morphology and had a very narrow size distribution. This pH-sensitive block copolymer shows potential as a site-targeted drug carrier.

  • Finite element analysis(FEA) has been extensively applied in the analyses of biomechanical properties of stents. Geometrically, a closed-cell stent is an assembly of a number of repeated unit cells and exhibits periodicity in both longitudinal and circumferential directions. This study concentrates on various parameters of the FEA models for the analysis of drug-eluting biodegradable polymeric stents for application to the treatment of coronary artery disease. In order to determine the mechanical characteristics of biodegradable polymeric stents, FEA was used to model two different types of stents: tubular stents(TS) and helicoidal stents(HS). For this modeling, epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG)-eluting poly[(L-lactide-co-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone), PLCL] (E-PLCL) was chosen as drug-eluting stent materials. E-PLCL was prepared by blending PLCL with 5% EGCG as previously described. In addition, the effects of EGCG blending on the mechanical properties of PLCL were investigated for both types of stent models. EGCG did not affect tensile strength at break, but significantly increased elastic modulus of PLCL. It is suggested that FEA is a cost-effective method to improve the design of drug-eluting biodegradable polymeric stents.
