Curcumin-Loaded mPEG-PLGA Nanoparticles Attenuates the Apoptosis and Corticosteroid Resistance Induced by Cigarette Smoke Extract.

ABSTRACT: The present study was aim to prepare curcumin-loaded methoxypolyethylene-glycols-poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (Cur-mPEG-PLGA-NPs) and investigate curcumin's effect on reversing corticosteroid resistance induced by cigarette smoke extract (CSE) in rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells. The Cur-mPEG-PLGA-NPs were spherical, regular in shape with smooth surfaces, and well distributed and Cur-mPEG-PLGA-NP suspensions had good water solubility and presented prolonged release. Furthermore, we found that Cur-mPEG-PLGA-NPs were internalized more than curcumin into the cells and significantly alleviated apoptosis in RTE cells. In addition, 10% CSE reduced the maximal inhibition percentage and increased the half-inhibitory concentration of budesonide (BUD) on IL-8 secretion, and curcumin restored the efficacy of BUD inhibition. BUD in combination with Cur-mPEG-PLGA-NPs showed higher inhibitory rates for LPS- and CSE-induced IL-8 secretion than that in combination with curcumin. Moverover, the relative expression levels of HDAC2 was reduced after CSE exposure and curcumin could improve HDAC2 expression and reverse CSE-induced corticosteroid resistance. Curcumin in high concentration and Cur-mPEG-PLGA-NPs restored HDAC2 levels in RTE cells and thus Cur-mPEG-PCL-NPs have higher biological activity than curcumin.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that mithramycin A (MIT) is a promising candidate for the treatment of pancreatic carcinoma through inhibiting transcription factor Sp1. However, systemic toxicities may limit its clinical application. Here, we report a rationally designed formulation of MIT-loaded nanoparticles (MIT-NPs) with a small size and sustained release for improved passive targeting and enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Nearly spherical MIT-NPs with a mean particle size of 25.0±4.6 nm were prepared by encapsulating MIT into methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (mPEG-PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) with drug loading of 2.11%±0.51%. The in vitro release of the MIT-NPs lasted for >48 h with a sustained-release pattern. The cytotoxicity of MIT-NPs to human pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 and MIA Paca-2 cells was comparable to that of free MIT. Determined by flow cytometry and confocal microscopy, the NPs internalized into the cells quickly and efficiently, reaching the peak level at 1-2 h. In vivo fluorescence imaging showed that the prepared NPs were gradually accumulated in BxPC-3 and MIA Paca-2 xenografts and retained for 168 h. The fluorescence intensity in both BxPC-3 and MIA Paca-2 tumors was much stronger than that of various tested organs. Therapeutic efficacy was evaluated with the poorly permeable BxPC-3 pancreatic carcinoma xenograft model. At a well-tolerated dose of 2 mg/kg, MIT-NPs suppressed BxPC-3 tumor growth by 96%. Compared at an equivalent dose, MIT-NPs exerted significantly higher therapeutic effect than free MIT (86% versus 51%, P<0.01). Moreover, the treatment of MIT and MIT-NPs reduced the expression level of oncogene c-Myc regulated by Sp1, and notably, both of them decreased the protein level of CD47. In summary, the novel formulation of MIT-NPs shows highly therapeutic efficacy against pancreatic carcinoma xenograft. In addition, MIT-NPs can downregulate CD47 expression, implying that it might play a positive role in cancer immunotherapy.
