摘要
本研究将二甲双胍聚合物(metformin polymer,PolyMet)与多柔比星(doxorubicin,DOX)共载制备一种静电吸附的核膜型脂质纳米粒(PolyMet-DOX-lipid-nanoparticles,PolyMet-DOX-LNPs),并对其治疗乳腺癌的效果进行评价。首先γ-聚谷氨酸(γ-polyglutamic acid,PGA)和DOX经酰胺反应合成阴离子链(PGA-DOX)并进行核磁表征;采用静电吸附法共载PolyMet与PGA-DOX,得到PolyMet-DOX-NPs;再用阳离子脂质体膜包裹纳米粒得到核膜型的PolyMet-DOX-LNPs;采用透射电子显微镜观察其结构与形态;以粒径、zeta电位、包封率、载药量和体外释放特性等对其进行表征。采用MTT法检测PolyMet联合DOX对4T-1细胞的杀伤作用。用荷4T-1Fluc乳腺癌小鼠研究PolyMet-DOX-LNPs的体内抗肿瘤疗效。所有动物实验符合伦理学标准,并获得浙江中医药大学实验动物伦理委员会批准。结果表明,PolyMet-DOX成功合成,DOX接枝率为(72.03±1.29)%。制得的PolyMet-DOX-LNPs呈良好的圆球形和分散性,粒径稳定在(159.3±7.4)nm,zeta电位为(+36.3±1.9)mV,包封率和载药量分别为(72.76±1.92)%和(1.16±0.12)%。体外释放曲线显示,PolyMet-DOX-LNPs在48 h内生理pH值下(pH 7.4)表现出缓慢且持续释放的特性。进一步研究显示,PolyMet与DOX联合能体外协同增强对4T-1细胞的杀伤作用。活体生物发光成像(bioluminescence imaging,BLI)结果显示,PolyMet-DOX-LNPs处理后4T-1Fluc细胞发光信号强度降低,抑制肿瘤体积生长。H&E染色和体重变化结果显示,PolyMet可减轻DOX的毒性。综上,PolyMet与DOX联合治疗乳腺癌具有较好的增效减毒作用,为新型二甲双胍聚合物在抗肿瘤方面的应用奠定了一定的基础。
In this study,the lipid membrane-wrapped nanoparticles loaded with metformin polymer(PolyMet)and doxorubicin(DOX)was prepared and then evaluated therapeutic effect on breast cancer.An anionic chain PGA-DOX based onγ-polyglutamic acid(PGA)with DOX was synthesized via amidation reaction and characterized by 1H NMR.The PGA-DOX and PolyMet were loaded via electrostatic attraction to prepare the co-delivery nanoparticles system(PolyMet-DOX-NPs).Then,PolyMet-DOX-NPs were coated with cationic liposome membrane to form the core-membrane structural system(PolyMet-DOX-lipid-nanoparticles,PolyMet-DOX-LNPs).The structure and morphology of PolyMet-DOX-LNPs were observed by transmission electron microscope.The particle size,zeta potential,encapsulation efficiency(EE),drug loading(DL),release behavior in vitro of PolyMet-DOX-LNPs were investigated.The MTT assay was used to examine the cytotoxicity of PolyMet combined with DOX on 4T-1 cells.The 4T1Fluc tumor-bearing mice model was used to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of PolyMet-DOX-LNPs in vivo.All animal experiments were performed in line with ethical standards and approved by the Animal Experiments Ethical Committee of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University.1H NMR spectrum showed that PGA-DOX was successfully synthesized with DOX grafting rate of(72.03±1.29)%.The EE and DL of PolyMet-DOX-LNPs was(72.76±1.92)%and(1.16±0.12)%,respectively.PolyMet-DOX-LNPs exhibited a suitable size of(159.3±7.4)nm and positive charge of(+36.3±1.9)mV with good spheroidal morphology and dispersibility.The release profiles in vitro showed that PolyMet-DOX-LNPs exhibited a slowly and maintained release behavior at physiological pH value(pH 7.4)within 48 h.Further studies showed that PolyMet combined with DOX could synergistically enhance the cytotoxicity on 4T-1 cells.Bioluminescence imaging(BLI)result showed that the luminescence signal intensity of 4T-1Fluc cells was reduced after treatment with PolyMet-DOXLNPs and the tumor volume growth was also inhibited.Additionally,the H&E staining and changes of body weight showed that PolyMet could reduce the toxicity of DOX.To sum up,PolyMet has a good synergistic effect with DOX in the treatment of breast cancer,which provide the foundation for this novel metformin polymer on the antitumor application.
