Combretastatin A4-loaded Poly (Lactic-co-glycolic Acid)/Soybean Lecithin Nanoparticles with Enhanced Drug Dissolution Rate and Antiproliferation Activity. Curr Drug Deliv 2022; 19:918-927. [PMID: 35139789 DOI: 10.2174/1567201819666220209093443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 08/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to prepare combretastatin A4 (CA4)-loaded nanoparticles (CA4 NPs) using poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and soybean lecithin (Lipoid S100) as carriers, and further evaluate the physicochemical properties and cytotoxicities of CA4 NPs against cancer cells. METHODS CA4 NPs were prepared using a solvent evaporation technique. The effects of formulations on CA4 NPs were investigated in terms of particle size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficacy, and drug loading. The physicochemical properties of CA4 NPs were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and Fourier transform infrared spectra. The drug release from CA4NPs was performed using a dialysis method. In addition, the cytotoxicity of CA4NPs against human alveolar basal epithelial (A549) cells was also evaluated. RESULTS CA4 NPs prepared with a low organic/water phase ratio (1:20) and high drug/PLGA mass ratio (1:2.5) exhibited a uniform hydrodynamic particle size of 142 nm, the zeta potential of -1.66 mV, and encapsulation efficacy and drug loading of 92.1% and 28.3%, respectively. CA4 NPs showed a significantly higher release rate than pure CA4 in pH 7.4 phosphate-buffered solution with 0.5% Tween 80. It was found that the drug molecules could change from the crystal state to an amorphous form when loaded into the PLGA/Lipoid S100 matrix, and some molecular interactions could also occur between the drug and PLGA. Importantly, CA4 NPs showed a remarkably higher antiproliferation activity against A549 cancer cells compared to pure CA4. CONCLUSION These results suggested the promising potential of PLGA/Lipoid S100 nanoparticles as the drug delivery system of CA4 for effective cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hydroxamic acid group is one of the characteristic pharmacophores of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors. But here, we discovered a series of hydroxamic acid-based microtubule destabilizing agents (MDAs), which were derived from shortening the length of the linker in HDAC6 inhibitor SKLB-23bb. Interestingly, the low nanomolar antiproliferative activity of these MDAs depended on the presence of hydroxamic acid groups, but their inhibitory effects on HDAC were lost. Among them, 12b showed favorable metabolism stability, high bioavailability, and potent antitumor activity in multidrug-resistant cell lines and A2780/T xenograft model. More importantly, in the patient-derived xenograft models of triple-negative breast cancer and osimertinib-resistant non-small-cell lung cancer, both 20 mg/kg oral and 10 mg/kg intravenous administration of 12b could induce more than 70% tumor inhibition without obvious toxicity. Overall, we discovered that 12b, as a novel MDA based on hydroxamic acid, could serve as a potential MDA for further investigation.

Abstract
This work explored the mechanism of augmented stress-induced vascular reactivity of senescent murine femoral arteries (FAs). Mechanical and pharmacological reactivity of young (12-25 weeks, y-FA) and senescent (>104 weeks, s-FAs) femoral arteries was measured by wire myography. Expression and protein phosphorylation of selected regulatory proteins were studied by western blotting. Expression ratio of the Exon24 in/out splice isoforms of the regulatory subunit of myosin phosphatase, MYPT1 (MYPT1-Exon24 in/out), was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). While the resting length-tension relationship showed no alteration, the stretch-induced-tone increased to 8.3 ± 0.9 mN in s-FA versus only 4.6 ± 0.3 mN in y-FAs. Under basal conditions, phosphorylation of the regulatory light chain of myosin at S19 was 19.2 ± 5.8% in y-FA versus 49.2 ± 12.6% in s-FA. Inhibition of endogenous NO release raised tone additionally to 10.4 ± 1.2 mN in s-FA, whereas this treatment had a negligible effect in y-FAs (4.8 ± 0.3 mN). In s-FAs, reactivity to NO donor was augmented (pD2 = -4.5 ± 0.3 in y-FA vs. -5.2 ± 0.1 in senescent). Accordingly, in s-FAs, MYPT1-Exon24-out-mRNA, which is responsible for expression of the more sensitive to protein-kinase G, leucine-zipper-positive MYPT1 isoform, was increased. The present work provides evidence that senescent murine s-FA undergoes vascular remodelling associated with increases in stretch-activated contractility and sensitivity to NO/cGMP/PKG system.

Local application of doxorubicin- loaded Iron oxid nanoparticles and the vascular disrupting agent via the hepatic artery: chemoembolization-photothermal ablation treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma in rats. Cancer Imaging 2019; 19:71. [PMID: 31685015 PMCID: PMC6829940 DOI: 10.1186/s40644-019-0257-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2019] [Accepted: 10/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigates the effectiveness of local application of doxorubicin(Dox)-loaded, polydopamine (PDA)- coated single crystal hematite (α- Fe2O3) nanocubes (Fe2O3-PDA-Dox) and combretastatin A-4 phosphate disodium(CA4P)in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in rats. METHODS The magnetic characteristics and photothermal effects of the nanoparticles were determined in vitro. Tumor-bearing Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups of 8 according to treatment: controls, transarterial chemoembolization-photothermal ablation (pTACE) (Lipidol+Fe2O3-PDA-Dox + NIR), and CA4P + pTACE (CA4P+ Lipidol+Fe2O3-PDA-Dox + NIR). Drugs were administered through the hepatic artery, and the tumors exposed to 808-nm near-infrared radiation. The Fe content of tumors was assessed using neutron activation analysis. Treatment effectiveness was assessed using heating curves, magnetic resonance imaging, pathology results, and immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS The mean tumor Fe content was greater in rats treated with CA4P + pTACE (1 h, 23.72 ± 12.45 μg/g; 24 h, 14.61 ± 8.23 μg/g) than in those treated with pTACE alone (1 h, 5.66 ± 4.29 μg/g; 24 h, 2.76 ± 1.33 μg/g). The tumor T2 imaging signal was lower in rats treated with CA4P + pTACE. Following laser irradiation, the tumor temperature increased, with higher temperatures reached in the CA4P + pTACE group (62 °C vs 55 °C). Tumor cells exhibited necrosis, apoptosis, and proliferation inhibition, with greater effects in the CA4P + pTACE group. Transient liver and kidney toxicity were observed on day 3, with more severe effects after CA4P + pTACE. CONCLUSIONS Fe2O3-PDA-Dox nanoparticles are effective for TACE-PTA. Pretreatment with CA4P increases nanoparticle uptake by tumors, increasing the treatment effectiveness without increasing hepatorenal toxicity.

J Pharm Biomed Anal 2019; 169:215-224.

Abstract
Poly (l-glutamic acid)-Combretastatin A4 conjugate (PLG-CA4) is a novel nano-anticancer drug. For macromolecule conjugate nanomedicine, its pharmacology mechanism is closely related to the pharmacokinetic profiles in vivo. It is a great significance that evaluates this polymer drug combined by covalently bound via studying the pharmacokinetics and distribution characteristics. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a simple, accurate and practical analytical method for such conjugated polymers combined by covalently bound. In this study, a simple and complete alkali hydrolysis was designed and optimized for the total CA4 concentrations obtained from PLG-CA4. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method with multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) mode and the internal standard (IS) were adopted to develop a sensitive and accurate method satisfied both free and total determination of PLG-CA4 in biosamples. The method was validated which showed good linearity over a wide concentration range (R2 > 0.99), and the intra- and inter-day assay variability was less than 15% for CA4. The mean extraction recoveries of CA4 from plasma were all more than 80.0%. Furthermore, the method was applied to the study of pharmacokinetics (PK) and tissue distribution of PLG-CA4 in tumor-bearing nude mice. PLG-CA4 significantly prolonged retention time and enhanced distribution of CA4 in tumor.

Early Actions of Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor/Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor Drugs on Angiogenic Blood Vessels. THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PATHOLOGY 2017; 187:2337-2347.

Abstract
Tumors induce their heterogeneous vasculature by secreting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A. Anti-VEGF/VEGF receptor (VEGFR) drugs treat cancer, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. An adenovirus expressing VEGF-A (Ad-VEGF-A164) replicates the tumor vasculature in mice without tumor cells. Mother vessels (MV) are the first angiogenic vessel type to form in tumors and after Ad-VEGF-A164. Multiday treatments with a VEGF trap reverted MV back to normal microvessels. We now show that, within hours, a single dose of several anti-VEGF drugs collapsed MV to form glomeruloid microvascular proliferations (GMP), accompanied by only modest endothelial cell death. GMP, common in many human cancers but of uncertain origin, served as an intermediary step in MV reversion to normal microvessels. The vasodisruptive drug combretastatin CA4 also targeted MV selectively but acted differently, extensively killing MV endothelium. Antivascular changes were quantified with a novel Evans blue dye assay that measured vascular volumes. As in tumors, Ad-VEGF-A164 strikingly increased endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression. The eNOS inhibitor N(G)-Nitro-l-arginine methyl ester mimicked anti-VEGF/VEGFR drugs, rapidly collapsing MV to GMP. Inhibition of eNOS reduces synthesis of its vasodilatory product, nitric oxide, leading to arterial contraction. Patients and mice receiving anti-VEGF/VEGFR drugs develop hypertension, reflecting systemic arterial contraction. Together, anti-VEGF/VEGFR drugs act in part by inhibiting eNOS, causing vasocontraction, MV collapse to GMP, and subsequent reversion of GMP to normal microvessels, all without extensive vascular killing.

Abstract
Combretastatin A4 phosphate (CA4P) is a novel vascular disrupting agent for cancer therapy. However, frequent dosing and negative patient compliance have been encountered over CA4P by injection administration due to its quite short-term action and acute side effects. Therefore, it is significant to develop an oral formulation of CA4P. We established a novel method to prepare CA4P-loaded nanoparticles (CA4P-NPs) for oral administration by combining methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-polylactide (PELA) and poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) polymers. Transport study in vitro was evaluated on Madin-Darby canine kidney cell models, and antitumor effect evaluation in vivo was performed on S180 subcutaneous xenotransplanted tumor models in mice. The highest entrapment efficiency of CA4P-NPs was achieved when the weight ratio of PELA to PLGA was optimized to 1:1. The apparent permeability coefficient of CA4P-NPs was found to be 2.08-fold higher than that of free CA4P in transport study. CA4P-NPs reached an absolute bioavailability of 77.6% with the tumor inhibition ratio of 41.2% that was significantly superior to free CA4P. These results suggest a promising application of this composite nanoparticle for the oral delivery of water-soluble drugs.
