Abstract

The invention provides an EPI SPION, which comprises ferrous chloride, ferric trichloride, sodium metasilicate, carbodiimide, EDC.HCI, N-hydroxyl succinimide and EPI. Fe<3+>, Fe<2+>, SiO3<2-> are taken as main raw materials, and the SPION is prepared through a chemical coprecipitation method; hydroxide radicals which exist on the surface of the SPION have a silane reaction with a silane coupling agent, and an active group carbonyl group is introduced; and by the aid of a nucleophilic reaction between amido and the carbonyl group, the EPI is grafted to the nanoparticle, so that a target product EPI SPION is obtained. The EPI-SPION has good conductivity and magnetic permeability, and under the action of an applied magnetic field, the nanoparticle can reach a tumor diseased region, normal tissue cells are not damaged, and an application value of targeted treatment for tumors is achieved.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of pharmacy, and relates to an epirubicin superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle and a preparation method thereof. Background technique

[0002] Cancer is one of the number one killers that seriously endanger human health. According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, there are 10 million cancer patients in the world every year, and about 6 million people die from cancer, accounting for 12% of the global death toll; There were 1.8 million cancer patients and 1.4 million deaths, an average of 1.3 people died of cancer every 3 minutes, and the incidence of cancer showed a sharp upward trend. Chemotherapy is one of the important methods to treat cancer. Epirubicin is a broad-spectrum anti-tumor chemotherapy drug commonly used in clinic. It is a derivative of doxorubicin, and it can quickly penetrate into tumor tissues and tumor cells DNA binding, inhibition of nucleic acid synthesis and mitosis, stron...
