A novel “BEL-7402+HUVEC” co-cultured cell model was established to mimic tumor microenvironment. The cytotoxicity and migration assays were performed against the novel co-cultured model. Angiogenesis ability was evaluated by tube formation test, and in vivo metastatic ability was evaluated by lung metastasis test.Results: The result demonstrated that dual-ligand-modified liposomes showed greater inhibition of tumor angiogenesis and metastasis in comparison with other combined groups. Significantly, the mechanism analysis revealed that curcumin and combretastatin A-4 phosphate could inhibit tumor angiogenesis and metastasis via down-regulation of VEGF and VEGFR2 expression, respectively, and that GA&Gal-Lip could improve antitumor effect by GA/Gal-mediated active-targeting delivery.Conclusion: CUCA/GA&Gal-Lip hold great potentials in hepatoma-targeting delivery of antitumor drugs and can achieve anti-angiogenic and anti-metastatic effects by simultaneously blocking VEGF/VEGFR2 signal pathway, therefore exhibiting superior anti-hepatoma efficacy.Keywords: dual-ligand-modified, liposomes, anti-angiogenesis, VEGF, co-deliveryWang FLi YJiang HLi CLi ZQi CLi ZGao ZZhang BWu JDove Medical Pressarticledual-ligand-modifiedliposomesanti-angiogenesisvegfco-deliveryMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 16, Pp 4001-4016 (2021) |
