Popis: Background Although pH and redox sensitiveness have been extensively investigated to improve therapeutic efficiency, the effect of disulfide bonds location and pH-triggered charge-reversal on cascade-targeting still need to be further evaluated in cancer treatment with multi-responsive nanoparticles. Purpose The aim of this study was to design multi-responsive DOX@MSNs-COS-NN-CMC, DOX@MSNs-COS-SS-CMC and DOX@MSNs-COS-CMC-SS and systematically investigate the effects of disulfide bonds location and charge-reversal on the cancer cell specificity, endocytosis mechanisms and antitumor efficiency. Results In vitro drug release rate of DOX@MSNs-COS-SS-CMC in tumor environments was 7-fold higher than that under normal physiological conditions after 200 h. Furthermore, the fluorescence intensity of DOX@MSNs-COS-SS-CMC and DOX@MSNs-COS-CMC-SS was 1.9-fold and 1.3-fold higher than free DOX at pH 6.5 and 10 mM GSH. In addition, vesicular transport might be a factor that affects the uptake efficiency of DOX@MSNs-COS-SS-CMC and DOX@MSNs-COS-CMC-SS. The clathrin-mediated endocytosis and endosomal escape of DOX@MSNs-COS-SS-CMC enhanced cellular internalization and preserved highly controllable drug release into the perinuclear of HeLa cells. DOX@MSNs-COS-SS-CMC exhibited a synergistic chemotherapy in preeminent tumor inhibition and less side effects of cardiotoxicity. Conclusion The cascade-targeting of charge-reversal and disulfide bonds shielding would be a highly personalized strategy for cervical cancer treatment.
