Self-assembled stimuli-responsive adamantanamine-podophyllotoxin conjugate/β-cyclodextrins inclusion complex for enhanced solubility and anticancer activity
Podophyllotoxin (PPT) has excellent antitumor activity. However, poor water solubility and severe adverse effects hinder its extensive clinical applications. To effectively utilize PPT to fight against cancer, PPT was conjugated with adamantanamine (Ad) via glutathione (GSH) response disulfide bond and the resulting PPT-SS-AD was incorporated in β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) to generate high-affinity PPT-SS-AD/β-CD and PPT-SS-AD/HP-β-CD inclusion complexes. By conjugating with AD, the stability constants (Ks) of PPT-SS-AD/β-CDs were notably higher than that of PPT/β-CDs. In addition, the water solubility of PPT-SS-AD/β-CD and PPT-SS-AD/HP-β-CD increased 5.1-fold and 8.71-fold compared to free PPT, respectively. Both PPT-SS-AD/β-CD and PPT-SS-AD/HP-β-CD inclusion complexes exhibited accelerated release in the presence of DTT and at acidic condition. The inclusion complex with hydrophilic CD and hydrophobic PPT could self-assemble into nanosized particles with spherical shape. Cell uptake studies showed that uptake of PPT-SS-AD/β-CD NPs was 2.12-fold greater than that of PPT. Moreover, the in vitro studies showed that the cytotoxic effects of PPT-SS-AD/β-CD and PPT-SS-AD/HP-β-CD inclusion complexes were also enhanced compared to free PPT and the most significant cell growth inhibition was observed in Hela cells. Our study demonstrates the potential of utilizing adamantanamine modification to enhance the complexation of anticancer drugs with cyclodextrins and subsequently boosting the anticancer efficacy.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Molecular Structure is dedicated to the publication of full-length articles and review papers, providing important new structural information on all types of chemical species including:
• Stable and unstable molecules in all types of environments (vapour, molecular beam, liquid, solution, liquid crystal, solid state, matrix-isolated, surface-absorbed etc.)
• Chemical intermediates
• Molecules in excited states
• Biological molecules
• Polymers.
The methods used may include any combination of spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic techniques, for example:
• Infrared spectroscopy (mid, far, near)
• Raman spectroscopy and non-linear Raman methods (CARS, etc.)
• Electronic absorption spectroscopy
• Optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism
• Fluorescence and phosphorescence techniques
• Electron spectroscopies (PES, XPS), EXAFS, etc.
• Microwave spectroscopy
• Electron diffraction
• NMR and ESR spectroscopies
• Mössbauer spectroscopy
• X-ray crystallography
• Charge Density Analyses
• Computational Studies (supplementing experimental methods)
We encourage publications combining theoretical and experimental approaches. The structural insights gained by the studies should be correlated with the properties, activity and/ or reactivity of the molecule under investigation and the relevance of this molecule and its implications should be discussed.
