Abstract:

Carmustine (BCNU), a vital type of chloroethylnitrosourea (CENU), inhibits tumor cells growth by inducing DNA damage at O(6 )position of guanine and eventually forming dG-dC interstrand cross-links (ICLs). However, the clinical application of BCNU is hindered to some extent by the absence of tumor selectivity, poor stability and O-6- alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) mediated drug resistance. In recent years, tumor microenvironment has been widely utilized for advanced drug delivery. In the light of the features of tumor microenvironment, we constructed a multifunctional hypoxia/esterase-degradable nanomicelle with AGT inhibitory activity named HACB NPs for tumor-targeting BCNU delivery and tumor sensitization. HACB NPs was self-assembled from hyaluronic acid azobenzene AGT inhibitor conjugates, in which O6-BG analog acted as an AGT inhibitor, azobenzene acted as a hypoxia-responsive linker and carboxylate ester bond acted as both an esterase-sensitive switch and a connector with hyaluronic acid (HA). The obtained HACB NPs possessed good stability, favorable biosafety and hypoxia/ esterase-responsive drug-releasing ability. BCNU-loaded HACB/BCNU NPs exhibited superior cytotoxicity and apoptosis-inducing ability toward the human uterine cervix carcinoma HeLa cells compared with traditional combined medication of BCNU plus O-6-BG. In vivo studies further demonstrated that after a selective accumulation in the tumor site, the micelles could respond to hypoxic tumor tissue for rapid drug release to an effective therapeutic dosage. Thus, this multifunctional stimulus-responsive nanocarrier could be a new promising strategy to enhance the anticancer efficacy and reduce the side effects of BCNU and other CENUs.
