| Sumario: | Ying Li, Chunyan Zhu Department of Drug Delivery Research Center, Institute of Medicinal Plant Development, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, People’s Republic of China Abstract: In oral administration, gastrointestinal physiological environment, gastrointestinal epithelial cell membranes, and blood circulation are typical biological barriers to hepatic delivery of ligand-modified nanoparticle drug delivery systems. To elucidate the mechanism of oral hepatic targeting of cholic acid receptor-mediated nanoliposomes (LPs) (distearoyl phosphatidylethanolamine–polyethylene glycol–cholic acid-modified LPs, CA-LPs), evaluations were performed on colon cancer Caco-2 cell monolayers, liver cancer HepG2 cells, and a rat intestinal perfusion model. CA-LPs, ~100 nm in diameter, exhibited sustained-release behavior and had the greatest stability in rat gastrointestinal fluid and serum for both size and entrapment efficiency. CA-LPs demonstrated highest transport across Caco-2 cells and highest cellular uptake by HepG2 cells. The enhanced endocytosis of CA-LPs was found to be mediated by Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide and involved the caveolin-mediated endocytosis pathway. Further, we used fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) technology to show that the CA-LPs maintained their structural integrity in part during the transport across the Caco-2 cell monolayer and uptake by HepG2 cells.
