pH and Redox Dual Responsive Nanoparticle for Nuclear Targeted Drug Delivery

K. C., Remant Bahadur, Thapa, Bindu, Xu, Peisheng·2012·Molecular Pharmaceutics

Abstract

To mimic the clinic dosing pattern, initially administering high loading dose and then low maintenance dose, we designed a novel poly(2-(pyridin-2-yldisulfanyl)ethyl acrylate) (PDS) based nanoparticle delivery system. Side chain functional PDS was synthesized by free radical polymerization. Polyethylene glycol and cyclo(Arg-Gly-Asp-d-Phe-Cys) (cRGD) peptide was conjugated to PDS through thiol-disulfide exchange reaction to achieve RPDSG polymer. RPDSG/DOX, RPDSG nanoparticle loaded with doxorubicin, was fabricated by cosolvent dialysis method. The size of the nanoparticles was 50.13 ± 0.5 nm in PBS. The RPDSG/DOX nanoparticle is stable in physiological condition while quickly releasing doxorubicin with the trigger of acidic pH and redox potential. Furthermore, it shows a two-phase release kinetics, providing both loading dose and maintenance dose for cancer therapy. The conjugation of RGD peptide enhanced the cellular uptake and nuclear localization of the RPDSG/DOX nanoparticles. RPDSG/DOX exhibits IC(50) close to that of free doxorubicin for HCT-116 colon cancer cells. Due to the synergetic effect of RGD targeting effect and its two-phase release kinetics, RPDSG/DOX nanoparticles display significantly higher anticancer efficacy than that of free DOX at concentrations higher than 5 μM. These results suggest that RPDSG/DOX could be a promising nanotherapeutic for tumor-targeted chemotherapy.

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.
