Abstract

The majority of the chemotherapeutic drugs currently employed do not act exclusively into the target areas, which results in a series undesired effects to the patients. This scenario requires the design of strategies to overcome these drawbacks. The MIT research group lead by Prof. Michael F. Rubner and Prof. Robert E. Cohen has been developing through the layer-by-layer technique a new drug delivery device known as cell backpacks which might be attached to immune cell surface with no damage to cell viability. These backpacks present a top region for interaction with cells, an intermediate pay-load region and a bottom sacrificial region, responsible for detaching backpacks from substrate after production. Despite the recent scientific advances in both top and bottom cellular backpack regions, these device still requires meaningful developments into the pay-load region either in the drug loading and triggered release mechanisms. This research project proposes the study of the pay-load section of the cellular backpacks, aiming the development of new strategies for loading and triggered release of the anticancer drug doxorubicin into the backpacks. Besides the morphological and chemical characterization of the LbL films, this project also suggests testing different biocompatible materials as building-blocks of the pay-load region, in order to create a device able to release the drug as a response to external triggers such as magnetic field, near infrared radiation, among others. As the main project outcome the authors expect to develop the aforementioned strategies with proved efficacy in-vitro tests, which may support future in-vivo experiments with cellular backpacks.
