Hu Y, Liu P. Diselenide-Bridged Doxorubicin Dimeric Prodrug: Synthesis and Redox-Triggered Drug Release. Molecules 2024; 29:1709. [PMID: 38675530 PMCID: PMC11052396 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29081709] [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: 02/14/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The diselenide bond has attracted intense interest in redox-responsive drug delivery systems (DDSs) in tumor chemotherapy, due to its higher sensitivity than the most investigated bond, namely the disulfide bond. Here, a diselenide-bridged doxorubicin dimeric prodrug (D-DOXSeSe) was designed by coupling two doxorubicin molecules with a diselenodiacetic acid (DSeDAA) molecule via α-amidation, as a redox-triggered drug self-delivery system (DSDS) for tumor-specific chemotherapy. The drug release profiles indicated that the D-DOXSeSe could be cleaved to release the derivatives selenol (DOX-SeH) and seleninic acid (DOX-SeOOH) with the triggering of high GSH and H2O2, respectively, indicating the double-edged sword effect of the lower electronegativity of the selenide atom. The resultant solubility-controlled slow drug release performance makes it a promising candidate as a long-acting DSDS in future tumor chemotherapy. Moreover, the interaction between the conjugations in the design of self-immolation traceless linkers was also proposed for the first time as another key factor for a desired precise tumor-specific chemotherapy, besides the conjugations themselves.

Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15091990. [PMID: 37177138 PMCID: PMC10180867 DOI: 10.3390/polym15091990] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Revised: 04/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Micellar-nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems possessing characteristics such as an excellent circulation stability, inhibited premature release and on-demand site-specific release are urgently needed for enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, a novel kind of shell-sheddable core-crosslinked polymeric micelles with pH and oxidation dual-triggered on-demand drug release behavior was facilely constructed. The multifunctional micelles were self-assembled from a carefully designed amphiphilic triblock PEGylated polyurethane (PEG-acetal-PUBr-acetal-PEG) employing an acid-labile acetal linker at the hydrophilic-hydrophobic interface and pendant reactive bromo-containing polyurethane (PU) as the hydrophobic block, followed by a post-crosslinking via oxidation-cleavable diselenide linkages. These well-defined micelles exhibited an enhanced structural stability against dilution, achieved through the incorporation of diselenide crosslinkers. As expected, they were found to possess dual pH- and oxidation-responsive dissociation behaviors when exposure to acid pH (~5.0) and 50 mM H2O2 conditions, as evidenced using dynamic light-scattering (DLS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) analyses. An in vitro drug release investigation showed that the drug indomethacin (IND) could be efficiently encapsulated in the micelles, which demonstrated an inhibited premature release compared to the non-crosslinked ones. It is noteworthy that the resulting micelles could efficiently release entrapped drugs at a fast rate in response to either pH or oxidation stimuli. Moreover, the release could be significantly accelerated in the presence of both acid pH and oxidation conditions, relative to a single stimulus, owing to the synergetic degradation of micelles through pH-induced dePEGylation and oxidation-triggered decrosslinking processes. The proposed shell-sheddable core-crosslinked micelles with a pH and oxidation dual-response could be potential candidates as drug carriers for on-demand drug delivery.

Biodegradable hollowed mesoporous SeO2 nanoplatform loaded with indocyanine green for simultaneous NIR II fluorescence imaging and synergistic breast carcinoma therapy. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1151148. [PMID: 37008031 PMCID: PMC10060888 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1151148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Contrast agents in the second window of the near-infrared region (NIR II, 1000–1700 nm) have several advantages and indocyanine green (ICG), which emits NIR II fluorescence, is clinically approved and its use has been widely investigated for in vivo imaging, specifically for delineating tumor outlines; however, insufficient tumor targeting and rapid physiological metabolism of free ICG has substantially impeded its further clinical application. Here, we constructed novel hollowed mesoporous selenium oxide nanocarriers for precise ICG delivery. After surface modification with the active tumor targeting amino acid motif, RGD (hmSeO2@ICG-RGD), the nanocarriers were preferentially targeted toward tumor cells and subsequently degraded for ICG and Se-based nanogranule release under tumor tissue extracellular pH conditions (pH 6.5). The released ICG acted as an NIR II contrast agent, highlighting tumor tissue, after intravenous administration of hmSeO2@ICG-RGD into mammary tumor-bearing mice. Importantly, the photothermal effect of ICG improved reactive oxygen species production from SeO2 nanogranules, inducing oxidative therapy. The synergistic therapeutic effects of hyperthermia and increased oxidative stress on 808 nm laser exposure induced significant tumor cell killing. Thus, our nanoplatform can generate a high-performance diagnostic and therapeutic nanoagent that facilitates in vivo tumor outline discrimination and tumor ablation.

Abstract
In recent years, the exploration of tumor microenvironment has provided a new approach for tumor treatment. More and more researches are devoted to designing tumor microenvironment-responsive nanogels loaded with therapeutic drugs. Compared with other drug carriers, nanogel has shown great potential in improving the effect of chemotherapy, which is attributed to its stable size, superior hydrophilicity, excellent biocompatibility, and responsiveness to specific environment. This review primarily summarizes the common preparation techniques of nanogels (such as free radical polymerization, covalent cross-linking, and physical self-assembly) and loading ways of drug in nanogels (including physical encapsulation and chemical coupling) as well as the controlled drug release behaviors. Furthermore, the difficulties and prospects of nanogels as drug carriers are also briefly described.

Abstract
Selenium is capable of forming a dynamic covalent bond with itself and other elements and can undergo metathesis and regeneration reactions under optimum conditions. Its dynamic nature endows selenium-containing polymers with striking sensitivity towards some environmental alterations. In the past decade, several selenium-containing polymers were synthesized and used for the preparation of oxidation-, reduction-, and radiation-responsive nanocarriers. Recently, thioredoxin reductase, sonication, and osmotic pressure triggered the cleavage of Se-Se bonds and swelling or disassembly of nanostructures. Moreover, some selenium-containing nanocarriers form oxidation products such as seleninic acids and acrylates with inherent anticancer activities. Thus, selenium-containing polymers hold promise for the fabrication of ultrasensitive and multifunctional nanocarriers of radiotherapeutic, chemotherapeutic, and immunotherapeutic significance. Herein, we discuss the most recent developments in selenium-containing polymeric micelles in light of their architecture, multiple stimuli-responsive properties, emerging immunomodulatory activities, and future perspectives in the delivery and controlled release of anticancer agents.

Abstract
A new kind of on-demand dissolution hydrogel is successfully synthesized by modification of chitosan using γ-selenobutyrolactone. The chitosan hydrogel with different selenium contents is formed by ring opening of γ-selenobutyrolactone with the amines of D-glucosamine units on the chitosan backbone. The structure of the hydrogel was confirmed by 1H NMR, XRD and XPS. Its physical and biological properties were evaluated by rheology characterization, degradation tests and cytotoxicity test. The hydrogel showed excellent biocompatibility and good degradation properties under oxidation or reduction conditions. All the evidence demonstrated that this type of material has good prospects for dressing applications.

Abstract
X-ray-responsive nanocarriers for anticancer drug delivery have shown great promise for enhancing the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy. A critical challenge remains for development of such radiation-controlled drug delivery systems (DDSs), which is to minimize the required X-ray dose for triggering the cargo release. Herein, we design and fabricate an effective DDS based on diselenide block copolymers (as nanocarrier), which can be triggered to release their cargo with a reduced radiation dose of 2 Gy due to their sensitivity to both X-ray and the high level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the microenvironment of cancer cells. The underlying molecular mechanism is further illustrated by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In vivo experiments on tumor-bearing mice validated that the loaded drugs are effectively delivered to the tumor site and exert remarkable antitumor effects (minimum tumor volume/weight) along with X-ray. Furthermore, the diselenide nanocarriers exhibit no noticeable cytotoxicity. These findings provide new insights for the de novo design of radiation-controlled DDSs for cancer chemoradiotherapy.

Abstract
The combination of selenium and pillararenes to prepare selenium-containing pillararene-based biomaterials is of great significance for the development of biomedicine. Herein, using a covalent self-assembly strategy, we successfully developed new diselenium-containing ultrathin polymer nanocapsules based on lateral cross-linked pillararenes. The new system exhibited a very potent anticancer effect; additionally, the incorporation of the cleavable redox diselenium bond into the polymer nanocapsules provided a smart nanocarrier for drug delivery. Moreover, the polymer nanocapsules were developed for anticancer drug targeting delivery by loading an anticancer drug and introducing the tumor-penetrating peptide RGD through the host-guest interaction strategy. The targeting DOX-loaded diselenium-containing polymer nanocapsules exhibited enhanced stability, self-anticancer effect, targeted delivery and controlled drug release, resulting in effective combined inhibition of tumor progression.

Int J Pharm 2019; 567:118486. [PMID: 31260783 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.118486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2019] [Revised: 06/15/2019] [Accepted: 06/28/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polymeric nanostructures have emerged as potential drug carriers for cancer therapy. Herein, we synthesized redox-responsive diselenide bond containing amphiphilic polymer, Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 from mPEG-PLGA and 3,3'-diselanediyldipropanoic acid (DSeDPA) using DCC/DMAP as coupling agents. Due to its amphiphilic nature, Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 self-assembled in to stable micelles in aqueous solution with a hydrodynamic size of 123.9 ± 0.85 nm. The Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 micelles exhibited DOX-loading content (DLC) of 6.61 wt% and encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 54.9%. The DOX-loaded Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 micelles released 73.94% and 69.54% of their cargo within 72 h upon treatment with 6 mM GSH and 0.1% H2O2, respectively, at pH 7.4 and 37 °C. The MTT assay results demonstrated that Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 was devoid of any inherent toxicity and the DOX-loaded micelles showed pronounced antitumor activities against HeLa cells, 44.46% of cells were viable at maximum dose of 7.5 µg/mL. The cellular uptake experiment further confirmed the internalization of DOX-loaded Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 micelles and endowed redox stimuli triggered drug release in cytosol and nuclei of cancer cells. Overall, the results suggested that the smart, biocompatible Bi(mPEG-PLGA)-Se2 copolymer could serve as potential drug delivery biomaterial for the controlled release of hydrophobic drugs in cancer cells.

Diselenide linkage containing triblock copolymer nanoparticles based on Bi(methoxyl poly(ethylene glycol))-poly(ε-carprolactone): Selective intracellular drug delivery in cancer cells. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2019; 103:109803. [PMID: 31349440 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2019.109803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2018] [Revised: 04/24/2019] [Accepted: 05/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Redox-responsive diselenide bond containing triblock copolymer Bi(mPEG-SeSe)-PCL,Bi(mPEG-SeSe)-PCL was developed for specific drug release in cancer cells. Initially, ditosylated polycaprolactone was prepared via the reaction between polycaprolactone diol (PCL-diol) and tosyl chloride (TsCl). Next, Bi(mPEG-SeSe)-PCL was synthesized via the reaction between ditosylated polycaprolactone and sodium diselenide initiated poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether tosylate. The synthesized amphiphilic triblock copolymer could self-assemble into uniform nanoparticles in aqueous medium and disassemble upon redox stimuli. The Bi(mPEG-SeSe)-PCL nanoparticles showed a DOX loading content of 5.1 wt% and a loading efficiency of 49%. In vitro drug release studies showed that about 62.4% and 56% of DOX was released from the nanoparticles during 72 h at 37 °C in PBS containing 2 mg/mL (6 mM) GSH and 0.1% H2O2, respectively, whereas only about 30% of DOX was released in PBS under the same conditions. The cell viability (MTT assays) results showed that the synthesized material was biocompatible with above 90% cell viability, and that the DOX-loaded Bi(mPEG-SeSe)-PCL nanoparticles had a high antitumor activity against HeLa cells and low antitumor activity against HaCaT cells, following a 24-h incubation period. Three-dimensional (3D) spheroids of HeLa cells were established for the evaluation of localization of the DOX-loaded nanoparticles into spheroids cells and the successfully inhibition of 3D tumor spheroid growth. The results indicated that the synthesized material Bi(mPEG-SeSe)-PCL was biocompatible and it could be a potential candidate for anticancer drug delivery system.

Abstract
The development of smart delivery systems that are robust in circulation and quickly release drugs following selective internalization into target cancer cells is a key to precision cancer therapy. Interestingly, reduction-sensitive polymeric nanomedicines showing high plasma stability and triggered cytoplasmic drug release behavior have recently emerged as one of the most exciting platforms for targeted delivery of various anticancer drugs including small chemical drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids. In vivo studies in varying tumor models reveal that these reduction-sensitive multifunctional nanomedicines outperform the currently used clinical formulations and reduction-insensitive counterparts, bringing about not only significantly enhanced tumor selectivity, accumulation and inhibition efficacy but also markedly reduced systemic toxicity and improved therapeutic index. In this review, we will highlight the cutting-edge advancement with a focus on in vivo performances as well as future perspectives on reduction-sensitive polymeric nanomedicines for targeted cancer therapy.

Abstract
Herein, reduction-responsive disintegratable nanoclusters (NCs) were prepared as a novel nanovehicle for targeted drug delivery. The NCs, with a diameter of ∼170 nm, were self-assembled from hydrophobically modified and iRGD decorated hydroxyethyl starch (iRGD-HES-SS-C18). DOX was loaded into the NCs as a model drug. DOX@iRGD-HES-SS-C18 NCs can disintegrate into smaller ones and release DOX under reduction stimuli. Due to the ligand-receptor binding interactions between iRGD and integrin αV, DOX@iRGD-HES-SS-C18 NCs can specifically bind to the cell membranes of HepG-2 and 4T1 cells (integrin αV positive), resulting in enhanced cellular uptake as compared to DOX@HES-SS-C18 NCs. After cellular internalization, the NCs were transported to endosomes/lysosomes in which the reductive environment triggered the disintegration and DOX release. As a consequence, DOX@iRGD-HES-SS-C18 NCs exhibited an enhanced antitumor effect as compared to DOX@HES-SS-C18 NCs and free DOX, in an in vitro antitumor activity study. The reduction-responsive disintegratable NCs reported here were proved to be a safe and efficient nanoplatform, holding significant translation potential for tumor-targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 )-responsive materials have been employed as drug delivery or diagnostic systems to treat or detect diseases with abnormal oxidative stress. A number of H2 O2 -responsive systems have been developed, and they have achieved great progress in controlled drug delivery for disease treatment. However, pathological sites with elevated H2 O2 level, such as cancer and inflammation, have their own characteristics; therefore the material structures and the subsequent formulations should be reasonably designed to acquire maximized therapeutic effects. In this progress report, we overview the development of H2 O2 -responsive functional groups for constructing H2 O2 -responsive formulations, as well as the guidance for designing suitable formulations to treat each specific pathological condition. The challenges and perspectives in this field are also discussed.

Abstract
Nanogels (or nanohydrogels) have been extensively investigated as one of the most promising nanoparticulate biomedical platforms owing to their advantageous properties that combine the characteristics of hydrogel systems with nanoparticles. Among them, smart nanogels that have the ability to respond to external stimuli, such as pH, redox, temperature, enzymes, light, magnetic field and so forth, are most attractive in the area of drug delivery. Besides, numerous multifunctionalized nanogels with high sensitivity and specificity were designed for diagnostic applications. In this feature article, we have reviewed and discussed the recent progress of biodegradable nanogels as smart nanocarriers of anticancer drugs and biomedical diagnostic agents for cancer.
