RESUMEN
Two kinds of amphiphilic block copolymers of TfR-T12-PEG-PLGA and TATH7-PEG-PLGA were synthesized to self-assembly nano-composite micelles for encapsulating paclitaxel and imiquimod synchronously. TfR-T12 peptide modified nano-composite micelles can pass through BBB in a TfR-mediated way to achieve targeted delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs, and pH sensitive TATH7 peptide modified nano-composite micelles enhanced uptake efficiency more significantly under pH 5.5 medium than pH 7.4 medium. The results of pharmacodynamic evaluation in vivo showed that the nano-composite micelles had achieved good anti-tumor effect in subcutaneous and normotopia glioma models, and effectively prolonged the life cycle of tumor-bearing mice. The nano-composite micelles regulated the immunosuppression phenomenon of tumor microenvironment significantly, and promoted the M1 polarization of TAMs, then enhanced the proliferation and activation of CD8+ T cells in tumor microenvironment. It comes to conclusion that the nano-composite micelle achieves the purpose of effective treatment of glioma by chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy.
