Abstract

This work reports a multifunctional nanocarrier based on hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) for targeting tumor therapy. Doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded into HMSNs and blocked with cytochrome C conjugated lactobionic acid (CytC-LA) via redox-cleavable disulfide bonds and pH-disassociation boronate ester bonds as intermediate linkers. The CytC-LA was used both as sealing agent and targeting motif. A series of characterizations demonstrated the successful construction of the drug delivery system. The system demonstrated pH and redox dual-responsive drug release behavior in vitro. The DOX loading HMSNs system displayed a good biocompatibility, which could be specifically endocytosed by HepG2 cells and led to high cytotoxicity against tumor cells by inducing cell apoptosis. In vivo data (tumor volume, tumor weight, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling and hematoxylin and eosin staining) proved that the system could deliver DOX to tumor site with high efficiency and inhibit tumor growth with minimal toxic side effect.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
