The development of new effective drugs to treat breast cancer remains a huge challenge. ABT-737 can inhibit Bcl-2 proteins to promote apoptosis. Resiquimod (R848) is a TLR7/8 agonist that is effective in modulating the immunosuppressive microenvironment. In this study, a codelivery system (TPGS/ABT+R848 NPs) based on D-α-tocopheryl poly (ethylene glycol) 1000 succinate as a potential drug delivery vector to codelivery ABT-737 and R848 was investigated. The size of TPGS/ABT+R848 NPs was 102.5 nm, the drug loading of ABT-737 and R848 was 30.6 % and 12.5 %, and the entrapment efficiency was 84.2 % and 23.7 %, respectively. The nanoparticles showed no significant change in particle size over 14 days. R848 and ABT-737 were released in co-loaded nanoparticles in sequential order. In vitro anti-tumor experiments, the IC50 value of TPGS/ABT+R848 NPs was 0.30 μg·mL−1, 34 times lower than that of free ABT-737. Animal experiments also verified that TPGS/ABT+R848 NPs could enhance the anti-tumor activity, and the tumor weight inhibition rate was 75.3 %. This study demonstrated that TPGS NPs loaded with ABT-737 and R848 have superior combination tumor therapeutic effects, and the co-loaded preparation is conducive to anti-tumor efficacy. The TPGS/ABT+R848 NPs could be a promising platform against breast cancer. |
