摘要
调控上皮-间质转化(epithelial-mesenchymal transition,EMT)过程是抑制肿瘤生长和转移的重要策略.该研究基于视网膜母细胞瘤的EMT过程,构建同时负载槲皮素(quercetin,QUE)与多柔比星(doxorubicin,DOX)的脂质体,用于研究QUE与DOX联用对视网膜母细胞瘤的治疗作用及其机制.通过单因素考察对槲皮素与多柔比星双载脂质体(QD Lipo)进行处方工艺优化,最终得到球形,粒径(108.87±1.93)nm,PDI 0.13±0.02,Zeta电位(-34.83±1.92)mV的双载脂质体,其中QUE、DOX包封率分别为96.20％±4.40％、91.17％±4.41％.以人视网膜母细胞瘤Y79作为体外细胞模型,采用共聚焦显微镜证明QD Lipo能提高Y79对其摄取效率.采用CCK-8法证明QUE∶DOX在1∶1～1∶2时具有最佳联合治疗作用.流式细胞技术证明QD Lipo增强了诱导Y79细胞凋亡的能力.通过Western blot技术发现QD Lipo能显著降低EMT通路相关蛋白vimentin和α-SMA的表达,并且荧光法检测到治疗后的Y79细胞内ROS水平显著降低.以上结果显示,脂质体共递送QUE与DOX可提高药物向视网膜母细胞瘤的输送效率,通过下调ROS水平抑制视网膜母细胞瘤的EMT过程,同时增强DOX对视网膜母细胞瘤的杀伤作用.
Abstract
Regulating the process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)is an essential strategy to inhibit tumor growth and metastasis.This study is based on the EMT process of retinoblastoma and constructs quercetin(QUE)and doxorubicin(DOX)co-loaded liposome(QD Lipo)to investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanisms of combined QUE and DOX treatment on retinoblasto-ma.Single-factor experiments were conducted to optimize the prescription process of QD Lipo.Eventually,spherical particles with a diameter of(108.87±1.93)nm,a PDI of 0.13±0.02,and a Zeta potential of(-34.83±1.92)mV were obtained.The encapsulation rates of QUE and DOX were 96.20％±4.40％and 91.17％±4.41％,respectively.Y79 human retinoblastoma cells were used as an in vitro cellular model,and confocal microscopy demonstrated that QD Lipo could enhance Y79 uptake efficiency.The CCK-8 assay con-firmed that the optimal combination therapy effect of QUE and DOX occurred at a mass ratio of 1∶1 to 1∶2.Flow cytometry showed that QD Lipo enhanced the induction of apoptosis in Y79 cells.Western blot analysis revealed that QD Lipo significantly reduced the ex-pression of EMT pathway-related proteins vimentin and α-SMA.Fluorescence assays detected a significant decrease in ROS levels in Y79 cells after treatment with QD.These results indicated that liposomal co-delivery of QUE and DOX can enhance drug delivery effi-ciency to retinoblastoma cells,inhibit the EMT process in retinoblastoma by downregulating ROS levels,and enhance the cytotoxicity of DOX against retinoblastoma.
