Abstract |
Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common type of newly diagnosed malignancy in men. Combined chemotherapy has been shown to be an effective strategy for the treatment of PC therapy. Lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LPNs) are core-shell nanoparticles composed of a polymer core and a lipid shell, which are reported to provide significant advantages for combined PC therapy. This study synthesized an aptamer conjugated ligand and designed an aptamer-functionalized, curcumin (CUR) and cabazitaxel (CTX) co-delivered LPNs (APT-CUR/CTX-LPNs). APT-CUR/CTX-LPNs had a mean size of 121.3 ± 4.2 nm and a positive surface charge (23.5 ± 2.6 mV). Both CUR and CTX were sustained released from LPNs. Aptamer-functionalized APT-CUR/CTX-LPNs exhibited good cell inhibition ability, high tumor accumulation, and remarkable tumor inhibition efficiency at the drug ratio of 2:5 (CUR:CTX). The novel LPNs offers great promise for the double drugs delivery to the prostate cancer cells and tumor xenograft in vivo, showing the potential of synergistic combination therapy for prostate cancer.
