▎ 摘  要

Chemotherapy using drug delivery systems (DDS) can target cancer cells selectively and without affecting normal cells. In this paper, NL2 peptide as a tumor targeted peptide was bonded on the surface of poly 3,4-Dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine (Poly L-DOPA) graphene quantum dots (GQD), which was imprinted by Doxorubicin (DOX). The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and particle size was determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). DOX release from synthesized nano-composite was investigated spectrophotometrically. Also, the toxicity and selectivity of NL2-GQD-NC on SK-BR-3 cell line were evaluated. FTIR and DLS experiment confirm the successful synthesis of Poly L-DOPA coated graphene quantum dots and their uniform particles. In vitro studies have shown that NL2-GQD-NC attached more to SK-BR-3 cells than NL2-free nanocomposites (GQD-NC). After attaching the cells could be imaged due to the presence of GQD particles and DOX release was accomplished in the tumor cells.
