| Abstract: |
Liposomes, especially polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified long-circulating liposomes, have been approved for market use, due to good biocompatibility, passive tumor targeting, and sustained drug release. PEG-modified long-circulating liposomes address issues such as poor stability and rapid clearance by the reticuloendothelial system. However, they still face challenges like hindering drug uptake by tumor cells and preventing tumor penetration. Inspired by the hypoxic tumor microenvironment, we constructed a hypoxia-responsive liposome (PAO-L) to enhance the intracellular uptake and photodynamic therapy (PDT) effect of chlorin e6 (Ce6). The intelligent hypoxia-cleavable PEG-AZO-OA (PAO) was prepared by coupling PEG and octadecylamine (OA) to hypoxia-sensitive azobenzene-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid (AZO) through amide reaction. The synthesized PAO was further incorporated into Ce6-loaded liposomes to enhance the circulation stability, while promote the tumor penetration and internalization by the responsive shedding of PEG from liposome surface upon reaching the hypoxic tumor tissue. PAO-L mediated PDT significantly inhibited the growth of B16F10 and 4T1 tumors, as well as lung metastasis of 4T1 breast cancer. The excellent therapeutic effect and good tolerability make PAO-L a promising candidate for enhanced PDT. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
