摘要
Practical clinical applications of chemotherapeutic drug are limited due to inevitable drawbacks such as low water solubility, big side effect and poor therapeutic efficiency. To overcome these drawbacks, we developed a novel nanoscale metal-organic framework (nMOFs)-based pH-responsive drug delivery system designed for efficient cancer therapy. In this work, a zirconium-based nMOFs UiO-66 was synthesized, and its surface was engineered to convert partial amino groups to hydrazone groups through stepwise organic transformations. Subsequently, the anticancer agent doxorubicin (DOX) served as a therapeutic drug and a fluorescent label was loaded through acid-labile hydrazone linkage to yield UiO-66-DOX. Acidic pH conditions (such as those surrounding tumor cells) catalyzed the hydrolysis of the hydrazone linkage and promoted the DOX release. These novel pH-sensitive drug delivery system will help to achieve safe delivery of the very cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drug (such as DOX), allowing to reduce the therapeutic dose and minimizing drug secondary effects.
