| Zusammenfassung: | Supramolecular chemotherapy is a strategy that is currently used to improve the therapeutic efficacy of traditional chemotherapy while mitigating side effects. Heptaplatin, a platinum chemotherapeutic antitumor drug in colorectal tumors, is traditionally used in the clinic. However, its side effects and low efficiency in killing tumors remain unresolved. Herein, a facile supramolecular chemotherapy platform on account of the host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril and the commercially available heptaplatin was studied. At pH 7.4, heptaplatin showed a strong binding to the cucurbit[7]uril nanocarrier by 1H NMR, whose Ka was (1.38 ± 0.06) × 106 M-1 by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). At pH 6.0 in a tumor microenvironment, overexpressed spermine can exchange competitively heptaplatin from heptaplatin-CB[7]. This supramolecular complex achieved higher antitumor activity on colorectal tumor cells and lower cytotoxicity than the drug alone on colorectal normal cells. Furthermore, the antitumor mechanisms of supramolecular complex were investigated by apoptosis, cell cycle, and spermine synthase. It was found that heptaplatin-CB[7] consumed more colorectal tumorous intracellular spermine by the spermine synthase assay (413.85 ± 0.004 pg/mL); hepataplatin-CB[7] caused early apoptosis (87.73%) of colorectal tumor cells; heptaplatin-CB[7] induced an inhibitory response in the G1 phase of the tumor cell cycle. These findings demonstrated that heptaplatin-CB[7] had higher antitumor activity toward human colorectal tumor cells but lower cytotoxicity toward human colorectal normal cells. It is expected to promote the supramolecular chemotherapy and translational development of the nanocomplex into the clinical field |
