Multidrug resistance (MDR) has become a very serious problem in cancer therapy. To effectively reverse MDR in tumor treatments, a new pH-sensitive nano drug delivery system (NDDS) composed of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and d-a-tocopheryl poly-ethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) copolymers was synthesized to deliver doxorubicin (DOX) into drug-resistant breast cancer cell line (MCF-7/ADR). DOX@MSNs-TPGS were characterized to have a single peak size distribution, high DOX loading efficiency and a pH-dependent drug release profile. MSNs-TPGS were internalized via caveolae, clathrin-mediated endocytosis and energy-dependent cellular uptake. The DOX@MSNs-TPGS exhibited 10-fold enhanced cell killing potency compared to free DOX and DOX@MSNs. The enhanced MDR reversal effect was ascribed to the higher amount of cellular uptake of DOX@MSNs-TPGS in MCF-7/ADR cells than that of free DOX and DOX@MSNs, as a result of the inhibition of P-gp mediated drug efflux by TPGS. In vivo studies of NDDS in tumor-bearing mice showed that DOX@MSNs-TPGS displayed better efficacy against MDR tumors in mice and reached the tumor site more effectively than DOX and DOX@MSNs, with minimal toxicity. These results suggest DOX@MSNs-TPGS developed in this study have promising applications to overcome drug resistance in tumor treatments.
多药耐药(MDR)已成为癌症治疗中一个非常严重的问题。为了有效地逆转肿瘤治疗中的 MDR,合成了一种由介孔硅纳米粒子(MSNs)和 d-a-生育酚聚乙二醇 1000 琥珀酸酯(TPGS)共聚物组成的新型 pH 敏感的纳米药物传递系统(NDDS),以将阿霉素(DOX)递送至耐药乳腺癌细胞系(MCF-7/ADR)。对 DOX@MSNs-TPGS 进行了表征,结果表明其具有单峰尺寸分布、高 DOX 负载效率和 pH 依赖性药物释放特性。MSNs-TPGS 通过 caveolae、网格蛋白介导的内吞作用和能量依赖性细胞摄取被内化。与游离 DOX 和 DOX@MSNs 相比,DOX@MSNs-TPGS 表现出 10 倍增强的细胞杀伤效力。增强的 MDR 逆转作用归因于 DOX@MSNs-TPGS 在 MCF-7/ADR 细胞中的细胞摄取量高于游离 DOX 和 DOX@MSNs,这是由于 TPGS 抑制了 P-糖蛋白介导的药物外排。在荷瘤小鼠的 NDDS 体内研究中,DOX@MSNs-TPGS 对小鼠 MDR 肿瘤的疗效优于 DOX 和 DOX@MSNs,到达肿瘤部位的效率更高,毒性最小。这些结果表明,本研究中开发的 DOX@MSNs-TPGS 具有克服肿瘤治疗中耐药性的应用前景。
