The invention belongs to the field of biological
medicine, and particularly relates to a high-selectivity sensitizer for
solid tumor radiotherapy and a preparation method thereof.The sensitizer comprises two newly-designed modified compounds: a derivative based on a diamino-
anthraquinone structure and capable of enhancing
radiation energy deposition and relieving
tumor hypoxia; and the other one is a
cystamine derivative containing a
diselenide bond, and can effectively consume overexpressed
glutathione in
tumor cells and enhance the generation of
active oxygen. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving the two modified compounds and the
biodegradable polymer in an
organic solvent to form an organic phase, dissolving
phospholipid polyethylene glycol amino in
warm water, blending with a stabilizer in a
buffer solution to form a water phase, dropwise adding the organic phase into the water phase through a nano-
precipitation method, self-assembling to form nano-particles, and filtering and purifying to obtain a final product. The sensitizer can specifically target tumor tissues, the radiotherapy effect is remarkably improved through a multiple
synergistic mechanism, meanwhile, the damage to normal tissues is reduced, the preparation process is simple and convenient, and the reproducibility is good.
