Naphthalene-hydrophobized β-1,3-glucan nanogel for doxorubicin delivery to immunocytes.
A water soluble β-1,3-glucan schizophyllan (SPG) can be recognized by an immunocyte receptor called dectin-1. When we introduced naphthalene into the side chain of SPG (nSPG), it formed nanogel by physical cross-link and gained capability to ingest hydrophobic compounds such as doxorubicin. Our in vitro assay revealed that this nanogel can be used as specific delivery of anti-cancer drugs to immunocytes.
