Preparation of pH sensitive liposomes co-loaded with curcumin and cisplatin and evaluation of their anti-breast cancer activity in vitro
Objective To prepare cisplatin and curcumin co-loaded pH sensitive liposome (CCL) and investigate its anti-breast cancer activity in vitro. Methods Semi-model screening of the optimal ratio of two drugs combined;CCL was prepared by a thin film dispersion method. Box-Behnken design optimization optimal prescription;The particle size,ζ potential and morphology were investigated by laser particle size analyzer and transmission electron microscope. HPLC was used to determine the drug content. The release of 4T1 cells in vitro was investigated by dialysis bag method,and the proliferation inhibition of 4T1 cells was investigated by CCK-8. The migration,proliferation and apoptosis of 4T1 cells were investigated by cell scratch,cell clone and DAPI staining assay. The biocompatibility was investigated by hemolysis test. Results The optimal ratio of the two drugs was cisplatin-curcumin 1∶6;The optimal prescription parameters of CCL were:drug to lipid ratio 1∶29.83,bile to lipid ratio 1∶11.23,the dosage of sodium deoxycholate 14.08 mg;The particle size of CCL at pH 7.0 and pH 5.0 were (156.54±2.56) nm and (318.92±12.82) nm,and the ζ potential was (−34.48±2.67) mV and (−11.07±1.05) mV,respectively. Under transmission electron microscope (TEM),CCL was more regular and spheroidal at pH 7.0,without obvious cracks. Under pH 5.0,CCL had larger particle size,irregular shape and cracks. The encapsulation rate and drug loading of Cur and cisplatin were (96.45±0.53)%,(79.85±0.20)%,(1.43±0.13)%,(0.30±0.05)%,respectively,determined by HPLC. In vitro release results showed that CCL had a sustained release effect,which was consistent with the first-order release model. The results of CCK-8 experiment showed that CCL inhibited the proliferation of breast cancer 4T1 cells and was positively correlated with drug concentration. The results of cell scratch test showed that CCL inhibited cell migration significantly (P<0.001) compared with the control group and other groups at the same time. The results of DAPI staining showed that in CCL group the number of cell was less than that in other groups and nucleus pyknosis. The results showed that the inhibition of cell cloning in CCL group was significantly higher than that in other groups (P<0.001). The results of hemolysis test showed that CCL had good biocompatibility. Conclusion The pH sensitive liposomes of CCL were successfully prepared,and the anti-breast cancer effect of the two drugs combined was better than that of the single drug,which provided a new idea for the study of drug combined treatment of breast cancer.
