Abstract

In this study, we developed a general method to decorate plasmonic gold nanorods (GNRs) with a CD44-targeting functional polymer, containing a hyaluronic acid (HA)-targeting moiety and a small molecule Glut1 inhibitor of diclofenac (DC), to obtain GNR/HA-DC. This nanosystem exhibited the superiority of selectively sensitizing tumor cells for photothermal therapy (PTT) by inhibiting anaerobic glycolysis. Upon specifically targeting CD44, sequentially time-dependent DC release could be achieved by the trigger of hyaluronidase (HAase), which abundantly existed in tumor tissues. The released DC depleted the Glut1 level in tumor cells and induced a cascade effect on cellular metabolism by inhibiting glucose uptake, blocking glycolysis, decreasing ATP levels, hampering heat shock protein (HSP) expression, and ultimately leaving malignant cells out from the protection of HSPs to stress (e.g., heat), and then tumor cells were more easy to kill. Owing to the sensitization effect of GNR/HA-DC, CD44 overexpressed tumor cells could be significantly damaged by PTT with an enhanced therapeutic efficiency in vitro and in vivo.

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.
