PEG-PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) modified with anti-CD133 and tumor-targeting single-chain antibody fragment (scFV-NPs) for systemic delivery of methioninase (METase) and pemetrexed for gastric carcinoma were successfully formulated. The structure characterization and biological functions of METase-pemetrexed-loaded scFV-PEG-PLGA NPs (scFV-METase/pemetrexed-NPs) were investigated. Functional scFV-PEG-PLGA NPs or PEG-PLGA NPs present low cell cytoxicity in CD133+ SGC7901 cells. scFV-METase/pemetrexed-NPs (scFv-M/P-NP) was more effective in inhibiting tumor growth (including cell growth and migration ability) in CD133 positive expressed gastric cancer cells than METase/pemetrexed-NPs (M/P-NP). Moreover, METase enhanced the inhibitory effect of pemetrexed on thymidylate synthase (TS) synthesis and cell apoptosis. We have demonstrated the application of scFV-targeted PEG-PLGA NPs as a new potential strategy to enhance treatment benefits for gastric carcinoma.
聚乙二醇-聚乳酸-羟基乙酸共聚物纳米粒(NPs)经抗 CD133 和肿瘤靶向单链抗体片段(scFV)修饰后,可用于系统递 delivery 甲硫氨酸酶(METase)和培美曲塞治疗胃癌。成功制备了载甲硫氨酸酶-培美曲塞的 scFV-PEG-PLGA NPs(scFV-METase/pemetrexed-NPs),并对其结构特征和生物学功能进行了研究。功能 scFV-PEG-PLGA NPs 或 PEG-PLGA NPs 在 CD133+SGC7901 细胞中表现出低细胞毒性。scFV-METase/pemetrexed-NPs(scFv-M/P-NP)在抑制 CD133 阳性表达胃癌细胞的肿瘤生长(包括细胞生长和迁移能力)方面比 METase/pemetrexed-NPs(M/P-NP)更有效。此外,METase 增强了培美曲塞对胸苷酸合成酶(TS)合成和细胞凋亡的抑制作用。我们已经证明了 scFV 靶向 PEG-PLGA NPs 的应用是增强胃癌治疗效果的一种新的潜在策略。
