Mussel-Derived, Cancer-Targeting Peptide as pH-Sensitive Prodrug Nanocarrier

Abstract: In this work, we prepared a novel cancer chemotherapeutic nanocarrier through the self-assembly of a mussel-derived, cancer-targeting peptide with a pH-sensitive conjugation of antitumor drugs. The biomimetic peptide was designed with a fluorescent molecule fluorescein isothiocyanate for imaging, a RGD sequence for cancer-targeting and tetravalent catechol groups for dynamic conjugation of the antitumor drug bortezomib via pH-cleavable boronic acid–catechol esters. Our study demonstrated that the peptide-based… Show more

“…Molecular Synthesis and Surface Functionalization. The clickable mussel-inspired peptide was prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis according to our previously reported method (38)(39)(40). Briefly, DOPA, a catecholic amino acid abundant in Mfps (30,41), was introduced into the peptide sequence using acetonideprotected Fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl-DOPA(acetone)-OH.…”

“…Nevertheless, the opposite is true at a basic pH as catechol–boronate complexes can be formed instead. Additionally, this chemistry has been widely exploited to prepare pH‐responsive capsules, [ 150 ] assemblies, [ 151 ] and coatings, [ 152 ] which have utilities in bioimaging, cancer cell targeting, and drug delivery (Figure 6A, b,c). It has also ignited great interest in the development of self‐healing materials that work under ambient humidity conditions.…”

“…The in vivo experimental results showed that this system could effectively deliver drug to tumor cells and suppresstumor growth. 43 Recently, several limitations of single drug cancer chemotherapy have been reported such as poor bioavailability, low therapeutic efficacy, and multidrug resistance. 44 Therefore, combination chemotherapy of two or more anticancer drugs has been thoroughly investigated and extensively developed in the past few years.…”
