[Abstract]
Objective To construct galactose-modified pH-sensitive artesunate nanovesicles (Gal-Art-NVs) and investigate their in vivo tissue distribution and anti-tumor efficacy. Methods Gal-Art-NVs were prepared by the ethanol injection method. The formulation process was optimized based on the encapsulation efficiency, drug loading, and particle size through single-factor experiments combined with the Box-Behnken response surface method, and then freeze-dried. The microscopic morphology of GalArt-NVs was observed by transmission electron microscopy, and their drug release behavior in phosphate buffer solutions at pH 5.0, 5.5, 6.5, and 7.4 was investigated by in vitro dialysis. A rat model of liver cancer was established, and tail intravenous administration was used to determine the drug concentration in various tissues at different time points for artesunate injection and Gal-Art-NVs, the relative uptake rate (RUE) and peak concentration ratio (Ce) were calculated to evaluate the in vivo targeting of the drug delivery system. Meanwhile, the tumor inhibition rate was calculated to evaluate the in vivo anti-tumor effect of Gal-Art-NVs. Results The optimal formulation of Gal-Art-NVs was as follows: Artesunate concentration of 0.98 mg·mL-1, the ratio of sorbitan monooleate 80 to cholesterol succinate was 1.93∶ 1.00, the ratio of the carrier to artesunate was 20.77∶ 1.00, and the amount of galactose stearate was 8% of the total carrier mass. After optimization, the average encapsulation efficiency of Gal-Art-NVs was (85.68 ± 1.07)%, the drug loading was (3.91 ± 0.14)%, the particle size was (183.76 ± 7.60) nm, and the ζ potential was (-26.79 ± 1.04) mV, presenting an elliptical vesicular shape. The nanovesicles significantly increased the drug release rate and cumulative release rate of artesunate in phosphate buffer solutions at pH 5.0 and 5.5, demonstrating obvious pH sensitivity. Compared with artesunate injection, the RUE and Ce of Gal-Art-NVs in tumor tissues increased by 3.02 times and 1.95 times, respectively. Compared with the model group, Gal-ArtNVs significantly inhibited tumor growth in nude mice bearing tumors, with an inhibition rate of 64.21% in the Gal-Art-NVs group (30 mg·kg-1). Conclusion Gal-Art-NVs have pH sensitivity and can increase the accumulation of artesunate in tumor sites, thereby effectively enhancing its anti-tumor efficacy.
