Abstract

The blood‐brain barrier (BBB) remains a formidable obstacle in medicine, preventing efficient penetration of chemotherapeutic and diagnostic agents to malignant gliomas. Here, a transactivator of transcription (TAT) peptide‐modified gold nanoparticle platform (TAT‐Au NP) with a 5 nm core size is demonstrated to be capable of crossing the BBB efficiently and delivering cargoes such as the anticancer drug doxorubicin (Dox) and Gd 3+ contrast agents to brain tumor tissues. Treatment of mice bearing intracranial glioma xenografts with pH‐sensitive Dox‐conjugated TAT‐Au NPs via a single intravenous administration leads to significant survival benefit when compared to the free Dox. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that TAT‐Au NPs are capable of delivering Gd 3+ chelates for enhanced brain tumor imaging with a prolonged retention time of Gd 3+ when compared to the free Gd 3+ chelates. Collectively, these results show promising applications of the TAT‐Au NPs for enhanced malignant brain tumor therapy and non‐invasive imaging.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
