Abstract

Polydopamine (PDA) coating as a bioinspired strategy for nanoparticles (NPs) has been extensively applied in cancer theranostics. However, a cellular-level understanding of nano-biointeraction of these PDA-coated NPs (PDNPs), which drives the fate of them and acts as a critical step to determine their efficacy, still remains unknown. Herein, we utilized the representative mesoporous silica NPs (MSNs) to be coated with PDA and study their nano-bioactivities in cancer cells. HeLa cell line was utilized as a model in this study. The PDNPs were discovered to be internalized through three specific pathways, that is, Caveolae-, Arf6-dependent endocytosis, and Rab34-mediated macropinocytosis (55%, 20% and 37% of uptake inhibition by nystatin, Arf6 knockdown, and rottlerin, respectively). Autophagy-mediated accumulation of PDNPs in lysosomes was observed and the formed PDA shells shedded in the lysosomes. Almost 40% of the NPs were transported out of cells via Rab8/10- and Rab3/26-mediated exocytosis pathways at our tested level. On the basis of these results, a novel combined cancer treatment strategy was further proposed using drug-loaded MSNs-PDA by (i) utilizing naturally intracellular mechanism-controlled PDA shedding for organelle-targeted release of drugs in lysosomes to generate lysosome impairment and (ii) blocking the demonstrated exocytosis pathways for enhanced therapeutic efficacy.

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.
