Abstract | Detoxification of glutathione (GSH) and insufficient cellular uptake of cisplatin (CDDP) severely compromised the therapeutic efficacy of CDDP. Here, a nano-delivery system (BT-4@PtPPNPs) for CDDP prodrug (C16-Pt(Ⅳ)-PEG) based on a novel sulfhydryl blocking reagent methyl 2-(methylsulfonyl) benzothiazole-6-carboxylate (BT-4) was developed. On the one hand, BT-4 can deplete GSH in tumor cells by directly interacting with reactive sulfhydryl group on GSH, thereby increasing the cytotoxicity of CDDP. On the other hand, the CDDP prodrug carrier C16-Pt(IV)-PEG can promote the distribution of CDDP in tumors, reduce the probability of unexpected inactivation of CDDP, and reduce the content of GSH in tumor cells during the conversion to CDDP, thereby making CDDP more effective for treatment. The results showed that the optimized BT-4@PtPPNPs with a small particle size (130 nm) exhibited notable cytotoxicity and apoptosis of 4T1 cells. BT-4@PtPPNPs not only significantly improved the uptake of drugs by tumor cells, but also rapidly targeted and accumulated in the tumors for a long time. Moreover, in vivo efficacy studies showed that BT-4@PtPPNPs could effectively inhibit tumor growth, inhibiting 60.85 % of tumors in a 4T1 breast cancer mice model, showing superior antitumor activity, which can be attributed to GSH-triggered CDDP tolerance reversal. Overall, this study provides an attractive and simple strategy to combine novel sulfhydryl blockers and CDDP prodrugs to potentiate the efficacy of CDDP in breast cancer. |
