Targeting different cellular pathways using combinational therapies has been gaining popularity in cancer treatment, with the added benefit of reducing dosage and side effects.Methods: A gold nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery nanoplatform was developed for co-delivery of doxorubicin and polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) siRNA. Gold nanoparticles were coated with polyethyleneimine to facilitate assembly of PLK1 on the surface. Doxorubicin was loaded on nanoparticles through a pH-sensitive linker with a thiol group at one terminal end for controlled release.Results: The therapeutic efficiency of this co-delivery system was evaluated in 2D and 3D cultured systems. The reduced IC50 value clearly demonstrated the synergistic effect of combined drug and gene delivery over their individual delivery in a cancer treatment model.Conclusion: This study may provide an adaptable, facile platform to investigate drug-siRNA combinations for cancer inhibition.Keywords: nanomedicine, cancer therapy, pH-responsive, co-delivery, PLK1Shrestha BWang LZhang HHung CYTang LDove Medical Pressarticlenanomedicinecancer therapyph-responsiveco-deliveryplk1Medicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 15, Pp 8109-8119 (2020) |
