Abstract
As an essential substance for cell life activities, ions play an important role in controlling cell osmotic pressure balance, intracellular acid-base balance, signal transmission, biocatalysis and so on. The imbalance of ion homeostasis in cells will seriously affect the activities of cells, cause irreversible damage to cells or induce cell death. Therefore, artificially interfering with the ion homeostasis in tumor cells has become a new means to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells. This treatment is called ion interference therapy (IIT). Although some molecular carriers of ions have been developed for intracellular ion delivery, inorganic nanoparticles are widely used in ion interference therapy because of their higher ion delivery ability and higher biocompatibility compared with molecular carriers. This article reviewed the recent development of IIT based on inorganic nanoparticles and summarized the advantages and disadvantages of this treatment and the challenges of future development, hoping to provide a reference for future research.

NANO RESEARCH 2022; 15:4334-4343. [PMID: 35126877 PMCID: PMC8800414 DOI: 10.1007/s12274-022-4069-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2021] [Revised: 12/03/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 05/05/2023]
Abstract
Ca2+ plays critical roles in the development of diseases, whereas existing various Ca regulation methods have been greatly restricted in their clinical applications due to their high toxicity and inefficiency. To solve this issue, with the help of Ca overexpressed tumor drug resistance model, the phytic acid (PA)-modified CeO2 nano-inhibitors have been rationally designed as an unprecedentedly safe and efficient Ca2+ inhibitor to successfully reverse tumor drug resistance through Ca2+ negative regulation strategy. Using doxorubicin (Dox) as a model chemotherapeutic drug, the Ca2+ nano-inhibitors efficiently deprived intracellular excessive free Ca2+, suppressed P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression and significantly enhanced intracellular drug accumulation in Dox-resistant tumor cells. This Ca2+ negative regulation strategy improved the intratumoral Dox concentration by a factor of 12.4 and nearly eradicated tumors without obvious adverse effects. Besides, nanocerias as pH-regulated nanozyme greatly alleviated the adverse effects of chemotherapeutic drug on normal cells/organs and substantially improved survivals of mice. We anticipate that this safe and effective Ca2+ negative regulation strategy has potentials to conquer the pitfalls of traditional Ca inhibitors, improve therapeutic efficacy of common chemotherapeutic drugs and serves as a facile and effective treatment platform of other Ca2+ associated diseases. Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material (further details of the XRD pattern of CeO2, TEM images, XPS spectra, cellular uptake study, cytotoxicity data, apoptosis study, biodistribution, and biosecurity of nanocerias in vivo, etc.) is available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s12274-022-4069-0.
