Using coumarin-6 as a fluorescence probe, we prepared H7K(R2)2-modified p H-sensitive liposomes(designated as coumarin-6-PSL-H7K(R2)2). The flow cytometry assay was used to evaluate the effect of H7K(R2)2 proportions on the cellular uptake and endocytosis pathways of coumarin--6--PSL--H7K(R2)2 on U87-MG cells. The circular dichroism(CD) spectroscopy assay was used to investigate the secondary structures of H7K(R2)2 peptide at pH 7.4 and H 6.8, respectively. Our results indicated that the 2.5% proportion of H7K(R2)2 in the coumarin-6--PSL-H7K(R2)2 was superior to those of 1% and 3.5% of H7K(R2)2. The uptake of coumarin--6-PSL--H7K(R2)2 on U87--MG cells was not inhibited by filipin, M-β--CD or chlorpromazine. The secondary structure of H7K(R2)2 at pH 6.8 was mostly presented as β--turn. In conclusion, we suggested that the appropriate proportion of H7K(R2)2 in the H7K(R2)2--modified pH--sensitive liposomes could be set at 2.5%. The cellular uptake pathway for H7K(R2)2-modified pH--sensitive liposomes was via the cell penetrating capacity of H7K(R2)2 which responded to acidic condition. The secondary structure of H7K(R2)2 at pH 6.8, which was presented as the shape of hairpin, might be mainly responsible for its targeting and cell penetrating effect.展开更多
