可生物降解电纺纳米纤维平台整合抗血小板-化疗预防术后肿瘤复发转移

Abstract

The perioperative trauma-related platelet recruitment and activation severely affect tumor recurrence and metastasis. Therefore, efficiently killing residual tumor cells and simultaneously inhibiting platelet activation to block platelet-cancer cell interaction might be a promising strategy to prevent postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis. Methods: Biodegradable PLGA electrospun nanofibrous films co-delivering doxorubicin-loaded tumor repopulating cell-derived microparticles (DOX-MPs) and aspirin (ASA) were developed as the implant materials (DOX-MPs/ASA@NF) for postoperative in-situ treatment. The characterization, cytotoxicity against tumor cells, inhibition in platelet activation-triggered proliferation, migration and metastasis of tumor cells and in vivo anti-recurrence and anti-metastasis activity induced by DOX-MPs/ASA@NF were systematically evaluated. Results: PLGA nanofibrous films facilitate the enhanced distribution of DOX-MPs as well as DOX-MPs and ASA release in a time-programmed manner within the tumor resection cavity. The released DOX-MPs efficiently kill the residual tumor cells, while ASA decreases platelet activation and inhibits platelet-promoted proliferation, migration and metastasis of tumor cells, resulting in the remarkable inhibition of postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis. Conclusions: DOX-MPs/ASA@NF may be a promising candidate to prevent the recurrence and metastasis of resectable tumors.
