This study shows the effectiveness of magnetic-guide targeting in the delivery of curcumin diethyl γ-aminobutyrate (CUR-2GE), a prodrug of curcumin (CUR) previously synthesized to overcome unfavorable physicochemical properties of CUR. In this study, chitosan (Ch)-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (Ch-IONPs) were fabricated and optimized using Box-Behnken design-based response surface methodology for delivery of CUR-2GE. Ch was used as a coating material on the nanoparticle surface to avoid aggregation. The optimized condition for preparing Ch-IONPs consisted of using 4 mg Ch fabricated at pH 11 under a reaction temperature of 85 °C. The optimized Ch-IONPs were successfully loaded with CUR-2GE with sufficient loading capacity (1.72 ± 0.01%) and encapsulation efficiency (94.9 ± 0.8%). The obtained CUR-2GE-loaded Ch-IONPs (CUR-2GE-Ch-IONPs) exhibited desirable characteristics including a particle size of less than 50 nm based on TEM images, superparamagnetic property, highly crystalline IONP core, sufficient stability, and sustained-release profile. In the presence of permanent magnets, CUR-2GE-Ch-IONPs significantly increased cellular uptake and cytotoxicity toward MDA-MB-231 with a 12-fold increase in potency compared to free CUR-2GE, indicating the potential of magnetic-field assisted delivery of CUR-2GE-Ch-IONPs for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.
本研究显示了磁导向靶向在姜黄素二乙氨基丁酸盐(CUR-2GE)递送中的有效性,姜黄素二乙氨基丁酸盐是姜黄素(CUR)的一种前药,此前已合成以克服CUR不利的物理化学性质。在本研究中,使用基于Box-Behnken设计的响应面方法制备并优化了壳聚糖(Ch)包被的氧化铁纳米颗粒(Ch-IONPs)用于CUR-2GE的递送。Ch被用作纳米颗粒表面的包被材料以避免聚集。制备Ch-IONPs的优化条件包括在85℃的反应温度下,使用在pH 11条件下制备的4mg Ch。优化后的Ch-IONPs成功负载了CUR-2GE,具有足够的负载量(1.72±0.01%)和包封率(94.9±0.8%)。基于透射电镜图像,所获得的负载CUR-2GE的Ch-IONPs(CUR-2GE-Ch-IONPs)表现出理想的特性,包括粒径小于50nm、超顺磁性、高度结晶的IONP核心、足够的稳定性和缓释特性。在永磁体存在的情况下,CUR-2GE-Ch-IONPs显著增加了对MDA-MB-231细胞的摄取和细胞毒性,其效力比游离CUR-2GE增加了12倍,表明CUR-2GE-Ch-IONPs的磁场辅助递送在治疗三阴性乳腺癌方面具有潜力。
