Description
X-ray controllable activated nanoparticle as well as preparation method and application thereof Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicine, in particular to GRP78 targeted and nitric oxide released X-ray controllable activated nano particles, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Radiation therapy (Radiotherapy, RT) is one of the central means of treating localized solid tumors, with more than 50% of cancer patients receiving radiation therapy (hereinafter referred to as radiation therapy) during their treatment. However, tumor radiation resistance (Radioresistance) is the primary cause of treatment failure, and about 20-50% of patients experience recurrence or metastasis after radiation therapy. The tumor radiotherapy resistance generation mechanism is complex and mainly comprises (1) an anoxic region exists in the tumor, the sensitivity of anoxic cells to radiotherapy is obviously lower than that of the anoxic cells, (2) the radiotherapy can induce the tumor cells to overexpress pro-survival factors such as heat shock protein 70 (HSP 70), GRP78 and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) so as to enhance the resistance capability of the tumor cells, and (3) the tumor cells have an efficient DNA damage repair system and can rapidly repair DNA breakage caused by radiation. Nitric Oxide (NO) is a gaseous signal molecule with vasodilating effect. In recent years, NO has been found to be effective in sensitizing radiation therapy by a mechanism in which NO reacts with radiation-generated Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) to produce the highly oxidative peroxynitrite (ONOO -) which causes more severe DNA damage and inhibits the activity of key proteins for DNA repair. In addition, the vasodilation of NO is helpful for improving the blood flow perfusion of tumor, relieving hypoxia, and further improving the radiotherapy effect. However, the half-life of NO is extremely short and systemic delivery lacks tumor selectivity, which can lead to severe systemic toxicity such as hypotension, limiting its clinical use. Therefore, a delivery system capable of selectively delivering NO to a tumor site and responding to the local accurate release of X-rays is developed, and has important significance for overcoming the resistance of radiotherapy and improving the curative effect of the radiotherapy.
