The therapeutic strategy used here was a combination treatment with the chemotherapeutic docetaxel (DTX) and siRNA against the ABCG2 gene that regulates multidrug resistance in many tumor types. Liposome-encapsulated DTX/ABCG2–siRNA molecules were targeted to recognize tumor cells of squamous morphology by conjugation to the EGFR-targeting ligand, GE11. Targeted, drug-infused liposomes were nanosized and exhibited controlled release of DTX. Presence of GE11 peptides on liposomal surfaces enhanced the quantities of liposomal constructs taken up by Hep-2 laryngeal cancer cells. GE11 peptide-conjugated liposomes also enhanced cytotoxic effects against Hep-2 laryngeal cancer cells when compared to treatment with free DTX, thereby reducing IC50 values. Additionally, GE11 peptide-conjugated liposomes had significantly increased anti-tumor and apoptotic effects. Treatments with the GDSL nanoparticle formulation inhibited tumor growth in Hep-2 xenograft-bearing nude mouse models when compared to treatments with non-targeted NP constructs. Treatment of the mouse models with GE11 peptide-conjugated liposomes mitigated toxicities observed after treatment with free DTX. Taken together, liposomal encapsulation of DTX and ABCG2–siRNA improved the anti-tumor effects of treatment with free DTX in Hep-2 cell lines, and conjugation of GE11 peptides to liposomal constructs enhanced anti-tumor efficacies and specificities in laryngeal cancer cells.
