Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of pharmacy, and relates to a whole-process targeting polypeptide and use thereof, in particular to a whole-process targeting polypeptide molecule having the functions of crossing blood-brain barrier and blood-tumor barrier, targeting tumor neovasculature, tumor vasculogenic mimicry, tumor cells and tumor stem cells, and a pharmaceutical complex and a modified nanodelivery system thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The existing technology discloses that tumor mortality is ranked first among all disease mortalities, and has become a serious threat to human life and health. In clinical treatment, traditional chemotherapy as a main means of tumor drug treatment has defects such as poor selectivity for tumor tissues, great toxicity, narrow treatment window, and easy production of multidrug resistance. Therefore, in order to overcome the limitations of traditional treatment means, in recent years, active targeting has become an important strategy for improving tumor tissue targeting efficiency. The active targeting strategy mainly targets receptors or transporters highly expressed in tumor tissues, and uses corresponding ligands having recognition and binding capacity with specific receptors or transporters to deliver drugs or nanodelivery systems to tumor tissues or cells. Research shows that drugs or nanodelivery systems modified by ligands can deliver drugs to tumor tissues and cells through specific recognition, binding and internalization of cell surface receptors or transporters and ligands, so as to realize active targeting of tumors. According to data, most of the current ligands are only targeted to a certain receptor or a certain cell. However, tumor tissues have tumor cells, tumor stem cells, tumor vasculogenic mimicry, tumor neovasculature and blood-tumor barrier (BTB), and brain tumors also have blood-brain barrier (BBB), which makes about 98% of small molecule chemotherapy drugs and almost 100% of protein and other macromolecular drugs unable to penetrate BBB into the brain, resulting in almost ineffective drug treatment. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop ligands having the function of targeting the whole process of tumor growth and development, especially brain tumors.

[0004] WSW( L WSW(L type amino acid sequence is SYPGWSW) and its stable optimized polypeptide D WSW(D type amino acid sequence D W D S D W D G D P D Y D S)) is also a 7-peptide with high binding activity to quorum sensing receptors verified in the early stage of the present application, which can target brain capillary endothelial cells and penetrate BBB, target tumor neovascular endothelial cells and penetrate BTB, and target tumor cells, but has no tumor stem cell targeting function.

[0005] Based on the current situation and foundation of the prior art, the inventors of the present application intend to provide a whole-process targeting polypeptide and its application in constructing a tumor-targeting diagnosis and treatment drug delivery system, so as to more effectively exert the targeting diagnosis and treatment effect on brain tumors or peripheral tumors with brain metastasis characteristics, and to exert a synergistic anti-tumor effect by combining the drug delivery system with a tumor treatment drug

[0153] After the administration of the tumor-bearing nude mice was completed, the brain tissue was removed, fixed, paraffin-embedded and sectioned, and CD31 immunohistochemical staining and PAS double staining were performed, and 3 high-power fields were continuously observed under a general optical microscope, and the number of CD31 positive blood vessels was counted, and the results are shown in Figure 17

[0154] 2) Tumor apoptosis test

[0155] After the administration of the tumor-bearing nude mice was completed, the brain tissue was removed, fixed, and frozen sectioned, and the tumor apoptosis was detected by TUNEL method, and the degree of tumor cell apoptosis was detected by Terminal deoxynucleotidyl Transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL), including the steps of: paraffin section was routinely dewaxed to water; PBS was rinsed for 3 times, each for 3 min; 0.3% H2O2 solution was treated at room temperature for 20 min; 20 μg / mL protease K was digested at 37°C for 20 min; PBS was rinsed for 3 times, each for 3 min; 30 μL of TUNEL mixture (TDT and biotin-dNTP) was added to each section and placed in a humidified box for incubation at 37°C for 60 min; the positive result was brown yellow or brown in the cell nucleus, and the brown particles in the cell nucleus were positive, which was determined as apoptotic cells; 5 high-power fields were continuously observed under a general optical microscope, and the number of positive cells was counted, and the percentage of positive cells in the cells in the field was the apoptosis index (as shown in Figure 18

[0156] 3) Tumor stem cell inhibition test

[0157] ​​After the administration was completed, the brain tissues of the tumor-bearing nude mice were routinely treated for fixation, and the number of brain tumor stem cells was detected by CD133 staining method. The positive result was that the cell nucleus was brownish yellow or brown, and the brown particles in the cell nucleus were positive, which was determined as tumor stem cells. Five high-power fields were continuously observed under an ordinary optical microscope, and the number of positive cells was counted, and the results were shown in Table 1. Figure 19 Table 1
