Dual-Responsive Core Crosslinking Glycopolymer-Drug Conjugates Nanoparticles for Precise Hepatocarcinoma Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated a potential for hepatocarcinoma therapy. However, the effective and safe NP-mediated drug transportation is still challenging due to premature leakage and inaccurate release of the drug. Herein, we designed a series of core cross-linking galactose-based glycopolymer-drug conjugates (GPDs) NPs with both redox-responsive and pH-sensitive characteristics to target and program drug release. Glycopolymer is comprised of galactose-containing units, which gather on the surface of GPD NPs and exhibit specific recognition to hepatocarcinoma cells, which over-express the asialoglycoprotein receptor. GPD NPs are stable in a normal physiological environment and can rapidly release the drug in hepatocarcinoma cells, which are reductive and acidic, by combining disulfide bond cross-linked core, as well as boronate ester-linked hydrophilic glycopolymer chain and the hydrophobic drug.

Project description:Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems are among the most popular research topics in recent years. Compared with traditional drug carriers, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) offer modifiable surfaces, adjustable pore sizes and good biocompatibility. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems have become a research direction for many scientists. With the active target factionalized, scientists could deliver drug carriers into cancer cells successfully. However, drugs in cancer cells could elicit drug resistance and induce cell exocytosis. Thus, the drug cannot be delivered to its pharmacological location, such as the nucleus. Therefore, binding the cell membrane and the nuclear target on the nanomaterial so that the anticancer drug can be delivered to its pharmacological action site is our goal. In this study, MSN-EuGd was synthesized by doping Eu3+ and Gd3+ during the synthesis of MSN. The surface of the material was then connected to the TAT peptide as the nucleus target for targeting the cancer nucleus and then loaded with the anticancer drug camptothecin (CPT). Then, the surface of MSN-EuGd was bonded to the hyaluronic acid as an active target and gatekeeper. With this system, it is possible and desirable to achieve dual imaging and dual targeting, as well as to deliver drugs to the cell nucleus under a hyaluronidase-controlled release. The experimental approach is divided into three parts. First, we conferred the material with fluorescent and magnetic dual-imaging property by doping Eu3+ and Gd3+ into the MSN. Second, modification of the cell membrane target molecule and the nucleus target molecule occurred on the surface of the nanoparticle, making the nanoparticle a target drug carrier. Third, the loading of drug molecules into the carrier gave the entire carrier a specific target profile and enabled the ability to treat cancer. In this study, we investigated the basic properties of the drug carrier, including physical properties, chemical properties, and in vitro tests. The result showed that we have successfully designed a drug delivery system that recognizes normal cells and cancer cells and has good anticancer effects.
