RESUMO

To effectively treat aggressive breast cancer by tumor-activated targetable photothermal chemotherapy, in this work, folate (FA)-modified hybrid polymeric nanoassemblies (HPNs) with a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-detachable capability are developed as vehicles for tumor-targeted co-delivery of IR780, a lipophilic photothermal reagent, and zoledronic acid (ZA), a hydrophilic chemotherapy drug. Through hydrophobic interaction-induced co-assembly, IR780 molecules and ZA/poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) complexes were co-encapsulated into a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-rich core stabilized by the amphiphilic FA-modified D-α-tocopheryl poly(ethylene glycol) succinate (FA-TPGS) and acidity-sensitive PEG-benzoic imine-octadecane (C18) (PEG-b-C18) conjugates. The developed FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs with high ZA and IR780 payloads not only showed excellent colloidal stability in a serum-containing milieu, but also promoted IR780-based photostability and photothermal conversion efficiency. Furthermore, for FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs under simulated physiological conditions, the premature leakage of IR780 and ZA molecules was remarkably declined. In a mimetic acidic tumor microenvironment, the uptake of FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs by FA receptor-overexpressed 4T1 breast cancer cells was remarkably promoted by PEG detachment combined with FA receptor-mediated endocytosis, thus effectively hindering migration of cancer cells and augmenting the anticancer efficacy of photothermal chemotherapy. Notably, the in vivo studies demonstrated that the FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs largely deposited at 4T1 tumor sites and profoundly suppressed tumor growth and metastasis without severe systemic toxicity upon near infrared (NIR)-triggered IR780-mediated hyperthermia integrated with ZA chemotherapy. This work presents a practical strategy to treat aggressive breast tumors with tumor-triggered targetable photothermal chemotherapy using FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs.

RESUMO

Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has emerged as a promising strategy for tumor treatment. Nevertheless, the low Fenton catalytic efficiency and the high concentration of glutathione (GSH) in cancer cells largely decline antitumor efficacy of CDT. To self-augment antitumor effect of the CDT by combining with photothermal therapy (PTT), the unique photothermal nanozymes that doubly depleted GSH, and generated massive hydroxyl radicals (·OH) in the hyperthermia/acidity-activated manner were developed. Through the coordination of Fe3+ ions with PEGylated chitosan (PEG-CS)-modified polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles, the attained Fe3+@PEG-CS/PDA nanozymes showed outstanding colloidal stability, photothermal conversion efficiency and acidity-triggered Fe3+ release. By GSH-mediated valence states transition of Fe3+ ions and Michael reaction between GSH and quinone-rich PDA, the nanozymes sufficiently executed dual depletion of GSH with the elevated temperature.Under mimic tumor acidity and near-infrared (NIR) irradiation condition, the endocytosed nanozymes effectively converted intracellular H2O2 into toxic ·OH upon amplified Fenton reaction, thereby potently killing 4T1 cancer cells and RAW 264.7 cells. Importantly, the nanozymes prominently suppressed 4T1 tumor growth in vivo and metastasis of cancer cells by CDT/PTT combination therapy without significant systemic toxicity. Our study provides novel visions in design of therapeutic nanozymes with great clinical translational prospect for tumor treatment.

RESUMO

To effectively promote antitumor potency of doxorubicin (DOX), a regularly used chemotherapy drug, the tumor acidity-responsive polymeric nanomicelles from self-assembly of the as-synthesized amphiphilic benzoic imine-containing PEGylated chitosan-g-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) conjugates were developed as vehicles of DOX. The attained PEGylated chitosan-g-PLGA nanomicelles with high PEGylation degree (H-PEG-CSPNs) were characterized to exhibit a "onion-like" core-shell-corona structure consisting of a hydrophobic PLGA core covered by benzoic imine-rich chitosan shell and outer hydrophilic PEG corona. The DOX-carrying H-PEG-CSPNs (DOX@H-PEG-CSPNs) displayed robust colloidal stability under large-volume dilution condition and in a serum-containing aqueous solution of physiological salt concentration. Importantly, the DOX@H-PEG-CSPNs in weak acidic milieu undergoing the hydrolysis of benzoic imine bonds and increased protonation of chitosan shell showed dePEGylation and surface charge conversion. Also, the considerable swelling of protonated chitosan shell within DOX@H-PEG-CSPNs accelerated drug release. Notably, the cellular internalization of DOX@H-PEG-CSPNs by TRAMP-C1 prostate cancer cells under mimic acidic tumor microenvironment was efficiently boosted upon acidity-triggered detachment of PEG corona and exposure of positively-charged chitosan shell, thus augmenting DOX-mediated anticancer effect. Compared to free DOX molecules, the DOX@H-PEG-CSPNs appreciably suppressed TRAMP-C1 tumor growth in vivo, thereby showing great promise in improving DOX chemotherapy.
