Comparison of cell delivery and cell membrane camouflaged PLGA nanoparticles in the delivery of shikonin for colorectal cancer treatment. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2024; 241:114017. [PMID: 38865869 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.114017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
Inspired by the "natural camouflage" strategy, cell-based biomimetic drug delivery systems (BDDS) have shown great potential in cancer therapy. Red blood cell (RBC) delivery vehicles and red blood cell membrane (RBCm)-camouflaged vehicles were commonly used strategies for drug delivery. We prepared shikonin-encapsulated PLGA nanoparticles (PLGA/SK) with different surface charges to obtain both RBC delivery and RBCm-camouflaged PLGA NPs. The physicochemical properties, in vivo circulation and antitumor effects of these biomimetic preparations were studied. Since the positive PLGA NPs may affect the morphology and function of RBCs, the biomimetic preparations prepared by the negative PLGA NPs showed better in vitro stability. However, positive PLGA NP-based biomimetic preparations exhibited longer circulation time and higher tumor region accumulation, leading to stronger anti-tumor effects. Meanwhile, the RBC delivery PLGA(+) NPs possessed better in vitro cytotoxicity, longer circulation time and higher tumor accumulation than RBCm-camouflaged PLGA(+) NPs. Collectively, RBC delivery vehicles possessed more potential than RBCm-camouflaged vehicles on drug delivery for tumor treatment, especially with positive NPs-loaded.

A biomimetic nanocarrier facilitates glucose consumption and reactive oxide species accumulation in enzyme therapy for colorectal cancer. J Control Release 2024; 367:76-92. [PMID: 38262488 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2024.01.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/25/2024]
Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOx)-based enzyme therapeutics are potential alternatives for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment via glucose consumption and accumulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Given that H2O2 can be eliminated by cytoprotective autophagy, autophagy inhibitors that can interrupt autolysosome-induced H2O2 elimination are promising combination drugs of GOx. Here, we developed a multifunctional biomimetic nanocarrier for effective co-delivery of an autophagy inhibitor-chloroquine phosphate (CQP) and GOx to exert their synergistic effect by irreversibly upregulating intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Poly (D, l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) were used to encapsulate both GOx and CQP using a W/O/W multi-emulsion method. Calcium phosphate (CaP) was used to "fix" CQP to GOx in the internal water phase, where it served as a pH-sensitive unit to facilitate intracellular drug release. Folic acid-modified red blood cell membranes (FR) were used to camouflage the GOx/CQP/CaP encapsulated PLGA NPs (referred to as PLGA/GCC@FR). In an AOM/DSS-induced CRC mouse model, PLGA/GCC@FR exhibited improved antitumor effects, in which the number of tumor nodes were only a quarter of that in the free drug combination group. The enhanced therapeutic effects of PLGA/GCC@FR were attributed to the prolonged tumor retention which was verified by both dynamic in vivo imaging and drug biodistribution. This multifunctional biomimetic nanocarrier facilitated combined enzyme therapeutics by depleting glucose and augmenting intracellular ROS levels in tumor cells, which exerted a synergistic inhibitory effect on tumor growth. Therefore, this study proposed a novel strategy for the enhancement of combined enzyme therapeutics, which provided a promising method for effective CRC treatment.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The use of tumor cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles, specifically the multifunctional biomimetic core-shell nanosystem MPCONPs, can enhance the targeting ability and immune escape functionality of traditional chemotherapy, leading to more precise drug delivery and improved treatment outcomes. EXPERIMENTS Preparation of MPCONPs: Autologous tumor cell membrane (CM) fragments are collected and used to create a shell for the nanoparticles. A trypsin-sensitive cationic polylysine framework is synthesized and embedded with oxaliplatin (l-OHP) and Ce6-AuNDs (a singlet oxygen generator). The MPCONPs are formed by assembling these components. FINDINGS MPCONPs, as nanoparticles camouflaged with tumor CM, have enhanced cellular uptake in cancer cells and improved the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemotherapy (CT). This offers great potential for their use as individualized therapeutic agents for clinical oncology treatment.
