Durant les dernières décennies, le domaine pharmaceutique s’est intéressé aux micelles et nanoparticules polymères celles-ci pouvant être utilisées comme vecteurs à libération contrôlée. Dans ce domaine, des copolymères amphiphiles combinant le poly(oxyde d’éthylène) (POE), polymère possédant des propriétés répulsives vis-à-vis des protéines plasmiques, et la poly-epsilon-caprolactone (PCL), un polyester aliphatique, polymère hydrophobe biocompatible et biodégradable permettant l’incorporation d’un principe actif hydrophobe, sont d’excellents candidats pour cette d’application. Jusqu’à présent, ce type de copolymère amphiphile principalement étudié est d’architecture linéaire. Récemment, notre laboratoire a développé une stratégie permettant la préparation de nouveaux copolymères greffés, composés d’un squelette principal de PCL et de greffons de POE. De plus, des agents de ciblage peuvent être introduits à l’extrémité du POE de ces copolymères amphiphiles, faisant de ceux-ci des candidats idéaux comme vecteur de troisième génération, permettant un ciblage spécifique au sein même de l’organisme. Le mannose est un agent intéressant, car il est reconnu à la surface des cellules dendritiques. Dans ce travail, la préparation de copolymères greffés fonctionnalisés par du mannose est décrite. La présence de mannose à la surface des micelles a d’abord été mise en évidence par test ELLA (Enzyme Linked Lectin Assay). Ensuite une étude plus approfondie a été réalisée par QCM-D (Microbalance à Cristal de Quartz avec Dissipation). Cette technique originale permet de mettre en évidence l’interaction entre la lectine immobilisée sur la surface du cristal de la microbalance et le mannose exposés à la périphérie des micelles du copolymère.

A series of novel fluorinated amphiphilic stabilizers of different architecture (diblock, grafted, or palm tree copolymers) were successfully prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer and used as stabilizers for the dispersion polymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in fluorinated solvent, namely alpha,alpha,alpha-trifluorotoluene (TFT). The effect of the amount and the architecture of the copolymer on the size and the stabilization of the particles was studied. Whatever the experimental conditions, scanning electron microscopy showed the formation of submicronic (typically about 300 nm) spherical particles, with a narrow size distribution. The principal difference emerges from the concentration of surfactant. Indeed, at higher copolymer concentration, smaller and less aggregated particles were produced. These results were confirmed by dynamic light scattering but these measurements also revealed the presence of larger aggregates (1,5 micrometer). Furthermore, the surfactant properties of the copolymers were investigated by measuring the interfacial tension at the H2O/TFT interface, and the results were correlated to their stabilizing efficiency in the dispersion polymerization of HEMA.
