While engineered DNA nanoframeworks have been extensively exploited for delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic regents, DNA tiling-based DNA frameworks amenable to applications in living systems lag much behind. In this contribution, by developing a Y-shaped backbone-based DNA tiling technique, we assemble Y-shaped backbone-rigidified supersized DNA tetrahedrons (RDT) with 100% efficiency for precisely targeted tumor therapy. RDT displays unparalleled rigidness and unmatched resistance to nuclease degradation so that it almost does not deform under the force exerted by the atomic force microscopy tip, and the residual amount is not less than 90% upon incubating in biological media for 24 h, displaying at least 11.6 times enhanced degradation resistance. Without any targeting ligand, RDT enters the cancer cell in a targeted manner, and internalization specificity is up to 15.8. Moreover, 77% of RDT objects remain intact within living cells for 14 h. The drug loading content of RDT is improved by 4-8 times, and RDT almost 100% eliminates the unintended drug leakage in a stimulated physiological medium. Once systemically administrated into HeLa tumor-bearing mouse models, doxorubicin-loaded RDTs preferentially accumulate in tumor sites and efficiently suppress tumor growth without detectable off-target toxicity. The Y-DNA tiling technique offers invaluable insights into the development of structural DNA nanotechnology for precise medicine.
虽然工程 DNA 纳米框架已被广泛用于递呈诊断和治疗试剂,但适用于生命系统的基于 DNA 平铺的 DNA 框架仍远远落后。在本研究中,我们通过开发一种基于 Y 形骨架的 DNA 平铺技术,以 100%的效率组装 Y 形骨架刚性超大 DNA 四面体(RDT),用于精确靶向肿瘤治疗。RDT 具有无与伦比的刚性和对核酸酶降解的无与伦比的抗性,以至于在原子力显微镜针尖施加的力下几乎不会变形,在生物介质中孵育 24 小时后残留量不少于 90%,显示出至少 11.6 倍的增强降解抗性。RDT 无需任何靶向配体即可靶向进入癌细胞,内化特异性高达 15.8。此外,77%的 RDT 物体在活细胞内完整存在 14 小时。RDT 的药物载药量提高了 4-8 倍,并且在刺激的生理介质中,RDT 几乎可以 100%消除非预期的药物泄漏。一旦被系统地递送至荷瘤 HeLa 小鼠模型中,载多柔比星的 RDT 优先聚集在肿瘤部位,并有效地抑制肿瘤生长,而没有可检测到的脱靶毒性。Y-DNA 平铺技术为精确医学的结构 DNA 纳米技术的发展提供了宝贵的见解。
