Objective To investigate the controlled release effect and the anti-cancer cell ability of a 5-FU loaded poly-L-lactic acid?（PLLA） nanofibers membrane blending with keratin. Methods Making PLLA and keratin mix together and crosslinking to generate blending solution. Then the anti-cancer drug 5-FU was added into the solution to fabricate nanofibers membrane by high voltage electrospinning method. The micro morphology was observed by scanning electron microscope （SEM）. The controlled release effect of 5-FU from the nanofibers membrane was measured by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）. The cytotoxicity of 5-FU/PLLA keratin nanofibers membrane was evaluated by using 3-（4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide （MTT） assay on HCT116 cell lines. At the meantime, cell growth morphology of HCT116 in experiment group were observed by microscope and transmission electron microscope. Results 5-FU could be dispersed homogeneous in the PLLA/keratin nanofibers membrane through SEM. HPLC suggested that 5-FU could be diffused out from the fibers slowly and uniformly, which corresponded the zero order kinetics basically. After different treatment, the longer time the 5-FU/PLLA keratin nanofibers （experiment group） immerse in the medium, the much more swelling, apoptosis, and necrocytosis of the cells were observed. The cell viability for experiment group was （47.5±2.8）% by MTT, while the PLLA keratin nanofibers without 5-FU had no significant impact on cell viability （93.9±2.8）%, which was statistic significance （P＜0.01）. Conclusion 5-FU/PLLA keratin nanofibers membrane owns good controlled release effect and satisfies cell inhibitory effect against HCT116 cells in vitro，which suggested that it has a promising prospect for clinical therapy.
