摘要: Quercetin (QCT) has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and other important pharmacological activities, but the poor water solubility limits its application. In this work, the amphiphilic dextran (ADEX) was prepared by grafting L-cysteine and octadecylamine onto carboxymethyl dextran with the grafting rate of 21.29 % and 19.35 %. Then, the QCT-loaded nanomicelles (QNMs) were prepared by using ADEX as wall material and the QCT as core material via ultrasonic self-assembly method. The particle size and zeta potential of QNMs were 372 nm and 31.4 mV. Under simulated gastric and simulated intestinal fluids, the cumulative release QNMs were 37.54 % and 52.13 % within 180 min, and the QNMs showed better stability in simulated gastric fluid. The QNMs showed significantly better PTIO center dot, (OH)-O-center dot and O-center dot(2)- scavenging activities than QCT. In addition, QNMs could effectively down-regulate the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and promoted the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine. The cellular uptake results proved that the QNMs were more easily absorbed by cells than free QCT, indicating that the nano-encapsulation procedure effectively improved the uptake efficiency of QCT by cells.
