Résumé

Essentially, the human body can release in different disease conditions specific biomolecules such as histamines when the body encounters a toxic substance, antibodies which are part of the body's natural immune response or nitric oxide as a cardiovascular signalling molecule. Design and development of "intelligent" delivery systems able to release the therapeutic agent only in the presence of bioactive compounds was presented here. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-N-(3-aminopropyl)methacrylamide)) (poly(NIPAAm-co-APM)) was synthesized as an exciting pH/temperature sensitive copolymer. Under physiological conditions (pH = 7.4), the APM in copolymer is in the ionized state (pK
