Abstract Andrographolide (AG) has favorable anti-inflammatory and antioxidative capacity. However, it has low bioavailability due to high lipophilicity and can be easily cleared by the synovial fluid after intra-articular injection, leading to low therapeutic efficiency in osteoarthritis (OA). Herein, we designed a nano-sized pH-responsive drug delivery system (DDS) for OA treatment by using modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with pH-responsive polyacrylic acid (PAA) for loading of AG to form AG@MSNs-PAA nanoplatform. The nanoparticles have uniform size (∼120 nm), high drug loading efficiency (22.38 ± 0.71%) and pH-responsive properties, beneficial to sustained release in OA environment. Compared with AG, AG@MSNs-PAA showed enhanced antiarthritic efficacy and chondro-protective capacity based on IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes and anterior cruciate ligament transection-induced rat OA model, as demonstrated by lower expression of inflammatory factors and better prevention of proteoglycan loss. Therefore, the AG@MSNs-PAA nanoplatform may be developed as a promising OA-specific and on-demand DDS.

Targeted Drug

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has the worst survival rate of all cancers. This poor prognosis results from the lack of efficient systemic treatment regimens, demanding high-dose chemotherapy that causes severe side effects. To overcome dose-dependent toxicities, we explored the efficacy of targeted drug delivery using a protease-dependent drug-release system. To this end, we developed a PDAC-specific drug delivery system based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) functionalized with an avidin–biotin gatekeeper system containing a protease linker that is specifically cleaved by tumor cells. Bioinformatic analysis identified ADAM9 as a PDAC-enriched protease, and PDAC cell-derived conditioned medium efficiently cleaved protease linkers containing ADAM9 substrates. Cleavage was PDAC specific as conditioned medium from leukocytes was unable to cleave the ADAM9 substrate. Protease linker-functionalized MSNs were efficiently capped with avidin, and cap removal was confirmed to occur in the presence of PDAC cell-derived ADAM9. Subsequent treatment of PDAC cells in vitro with paclitaxel-loaded MSNs indeed showed high cytotoxicity, whereas no cell death was observed in white blood cell-derived cell lines, confirming efficacy of the nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery system. Taken together, this research introduces a novel ADAM9-responsive, protease-dependent, drug delivery system for PDAC as a promising tool to reduce the cytotoxicity of systemic chemotherapy.
