Anti-Glioma Effect with Targeting Therapy Using Folate Modified Nano-Micelles Delivery Curcumin
2020
Targeted drug delivery systems have currently demonstrated considerable potential clinical benefits in cancer treatment. Curcumin has become a candidate anti-tumor drug for the therapy of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) by increasing cell apoptosis and suppressing cell proliferation. In current research, we explored a novel targeted drug delivery system with a self-assembly measure by curcumin, MPEG-PLA and Fa-PEG-PLA. Compared with free curcumin and Cur/MPEG-PLA, Cur/Fa-PEG-PLA can remarkably suppress the growth of GL261 cells and promote apoptotic rate. Moreover, after the procession of tumor-bearing mice with curcumin/Fa-PEG-PLA complex, tumor growth in subcutaneous and intracranial tumor models were repressed via suppressing angiogenesis and facilitating apoptosis in vivo. The Curcumin/Fa-PEG-PLA nanoparticle may be a novel drug for the therapy of GBM.
