英文摘要 | NCl/NIH [5R00CA153772, R01CA156775]; UGA; U.S. National Science Foundation [ECCS0823849, CBET 1139057]; Georgia Cancer Coalition Distinguished Clinicians and Scientists Award; Intramural Research Program of NIBIB; NIH; Major State Basic Research Development Program of China (973 Program) [2013CB733802]; National Nature Science of Foundation of China (NSFC) [81101101, 51273165]; Key Project of Chinese Ministry of Education [212149]; Photodynamic therapy is an emerging treatment modality that is under, intensive preclinical and clinical investigations for many types of disease including cancer. Despite the promise, there is a lack of a reliable drug delivery vehicle that can transport photosensitizers (PSs) to tumors in a site-specific manner: Previous efforts have been focused on polymer- or liposome-based nanocarriers, which are usually associated with a suboptimal PS loading rate and a large particle size. We report herein that a RGD4C-modified ferritin (RFRT), a protein-based nanoparticle, can serve as a safe and efficient PS vehicle. Zinc hexadecafluorophthalocyanine (ZnF16Pc), a potent PS with a high 102 quantum yield but poor water solubility, can be encapsulated into RFRTs with a loading rate as high as similar to 60 wt % (i.e, 13 mg of ZnF16Pc can be loaded on 1 mg of RAM), which far exceeds those reported previously.. Despite the high loading, the ZnF16Pc-loaded Fans (P-RFRTs) show an overall particle size of 18.6 +/- 2.6 nm, which is significantly smaller than other PS-nanocarrier conjugates: When tested on U87MG subcutaneous tumor models, P-RFRTs showed a high tumor accumulation rate (tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of 26.82 +/- 4.07at 24 h), a good tumor inhibition rate (8164% on day 12), as well as minimal toxicity to the skin and other major organs. This technology can be extended to deliver other metal-containing PSs and holds great clinical translation potential. |
