Dual-modified natural high density lipoprotein particles for systemic glioma-targeting drug delivery.

ABSTRACT: Therapeutic outcome for the treatment of glioma was often limited due to the two barriers involved: the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-brain tumor barrier (BBTB). Therefore, the development of nanocarriers that possess both BBB and BBTB permeability and glioma-targeting ability is of great importance for the chemotherapy of glioma. New frontiers in nanomedicine are advancing the research of new biomaterials. Here we constructed a natural high-density lipoprotein particle (HDL)-based drug delivery system with the dual-modification of T7 and dA7R peptide ligand (T7/dA7R-HDL) to achieve the above goals. HDL, the smallest lipoprotein, plays a biological role and is highly suitable as a platform for delivering imaging and therapeutic agents. T7 is a seven-peptide ligand of transferrin receptors (TfR) capable of circumventing the BBB and then targeting glioma. dA7R is a d-peptide ligand of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR 2) overexpressed on angiogenesis, presenting excellent glioma-homing property. 10-Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT), a hydrophobic anti-cancer drug, was used as the model drug in this study. By combining the dual-targeting delivery effect, the dual-modified HDL displayed higher glioma localization than that of single ligand-modified HDL or free HCPT. After loading with HCPT, T7/dA7R-HDL showed the most favorable anti-glioma effect in vivo. These results demonstrated that the dual-targeting natural nanocarriers strategy provides a potential method for improving brain drug delivery and anti-glioma treatment efficacy.

Project description:BACKGROUND: The successful gene delivery into the brain is a major challenge due to the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In order to transport plasmid DNA across the BBB and target the brain glioma, the PEGylated liposomes (PLs) modified with OX26 and chlorotoxin (CTX) were developed as a dual-targeting gene delivery system, and the therapeutic efficacy of OX26/CTX-PL/pC27 against glioma was evaluated using in vitro and in vivo experimental models. METHODS: The PEGylated liposome complexes were prepared by the reverse phase evaporation method, and their physicochemical properties were examined. The transfection efficiency, intracellular distribution, in vitro effects of OX26/CTX-PL/pC27 were determined on C6, F98 and HEK293T cell lines. The dual-targeting therapeutic efficacy of OX26/CTX-PL/pC27 against glioma were assessed using the BMVECs/C6 cells co-culture model and the rat orthotopic glioma model. RESULTS: The OX26/CTX-PL/pDNA complexes exhibited a subglobose shape, and possessed notably low toxicities to HEK293T and C6 cells post 4 h incubation. In the in vitro transfection experiment, gene expressions of hTERTC27 from C6 and F98 cells were significantly improved by OX26 and CTX modification. Our in vitro results also showed that OX26 endowed the PLs with the transport ability across the BBB. Using the BMVECs/C6 cells co-culture model, the viability of C6 cells was decreased to 46.0% after OX26/CTX-PL/pC27 transfection. The OX26/CTX-PL/pC27 complexes exhibited enhanced therapeutic effects on C6 cells. Moreover, the dual-targeting therapeutic effects were further conformed with diminished tumor volumes (18.81?±?6.15 mm³) and extended median survival time (46 days) in C6 glioma-bearing rats. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed the therapeutic effects derived from enhanced hTERTC27 expression in the tumor site. CONCLUSIONS: The PEGylated liposomes modified with OX26 and CTX are able to significantly promote cell transfection, increase the transport of plasmid DNA across the BBB and afterwards target the brain glioma cells in vitro and in vivo, exhibit the most significant therapeutic efficacy. The ligand OX26 plays a critical role in transporting the lipoplexes across the BBB, and CTX acts as a major role in targeting brain glioma cells. The results would encourage further developments for non-invasive targeting therapy of brain gliomas by intravenous injection.
