Cleavable conjugates of functionalized platinum-acridine and platinum-benzacridine agents and methods thereof

The present invention relates to using a versatile synthetic approach to generate a new class of ester, amido, or carbamate prodrugs of highly potent, but systemically too toxic, platinum-acridine anticancer agents. The new hybrids contain a hydroxyl group, which has been masked with a cleavable lipophilic acyl moiety. Both butanoic (butyric) and bulkier 2-propanepentanoic (valproic) esters were introduced to these compounds. The goal of this design was to improve the drug-like properties of the pharmacophore (e. g., log D) without compromising its DNA-mediated cell kill potential. Two distinct pathways by which the target compounds undergo effective ester hydrolysis, the proposed activating step, have been confirmed: platinum-mediated, self-immolative ester cleavage in a low-chloride environment (LC-ESMS, NMR spectroscopy) and enzymatic cleavage by human carboxylesterase-2 (hCES-2) (LC-ESMS). Several of the new compounds show excellent stability, reduced systemic toxicity, and favorable activation profiles while maintaining submicromolar cytotoxicity in various cancers, such as lung adenocarcinoma cell lines (A549, NCI-H1435). The results suggest that the novel dual-mode prodrug concept may have the potential to hasten the preclinical development of platinum-acridines.

MiR-181a-5p nanocomposite for treating oral cancer as well as preparation method and application of miR-181a-5p nanocomposite

The invention provides a miR-181a-5p nano compound for treating oral cancer as well as a preparation method and application of the miR-181a-5p nano compound. The polyethyleneimine modified silver nanoparticles are selected, a culture medium without double antibodies is generally needed during cell transfection, and nano-silver has a certain bacteriostatic effect and can effectively reduce the risk that cells are polluted during transfection, so that the operation is simpler, more convenient, safer and more effective when the nano-carrier is used; and the experiment efficiency can be improved. Besides, the polyethyleneimine modified nano-silver compound has certain pH responsiveness, the targeting of nano-drugs to tumor sites and the release efficiency of gene sequences can be remarkably improved, and research on in-vivo and in-vitro anti-tumor mechanisms is more convenient. The nano-carrier is used for delivering miR-181a-5p with an oral cancer inhibition function, and the expression quantity of miR-181a-5p in cells can be improved while the serum stability and RNA enzyme stability of mimics of miR-181a-5p can be remarkably improved, so that malignant behaviors such as proliferation, migration and invasion of oral cancer cells are effectively inhibited.
