摘要

We developed an ROS-responsive PEGylated polypeptide-based macromolecular ethyl caffeate (EC) prodrug via phenylboronic esters for the alleviation of uveitis. The antioxidative 4-hydroxy benzyl alcohol (HBA) and EC can be released under the stimulation of ROS

which can effectively protect cells against oxidative stress-induced injury in an ROS-depletion way.

Abstract

Uveitis is a sophisticated syndrome showing a high relevance with reactive oxygen species (ROS). Herein

an ROS-responsive PEGylated polypeptide based macromolecular prodrug of herbaceous antioxidant ethyl caffeate (EC) is designed

via

phenylboronic esters with improved solubility for the alleviation of uveitis. The antioxidative 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (HBA) and EC can be released from the macromolecular EC prodrug under the stimulation of ROS

which can effectively protect cells against oxidative stress-induced injury in an ROS-depletion way. The antioxidative and protective effects of the macromolecular EC prodrug

in vivo

are further verified in a uveitis mouse model. Overall

this work not only provides a handy method to synthesize a phenylboronic ester-bearing EC prodrug which is highly sensitive to pathological ROS

but also depicts a promising future to apply macromolecular antioxidative prodrugs in the treatment of uveitis as well as other ROS-related diseases.
