Detail

Result

Verapamil (VRP) [121]

VRP@BSA@AS1411@AgNP

Aptamer AS1411 could specifically bind to nucleolin on GBM cells and inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux activity

The cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT assay in U251 cells

Colony formation assay and tumor-bearing nude mice model were employed to examine the radiosensitizing potential

Increased accumulation and cytotoxicity in vitro/vivo

Radiosensitizing effect of AgNP composite

Decreased TrxR activity

Cisplatin (Pt) [122]

Pt@si-GPX4@FA@IONP

Folate acid was applied as tumor targeting ligand

Cell viability and proliferation were assessed using the CCK-8 assay

Lipid peroxidation levels were detected by MDA assay

Superoxide anion levels were detected using DHE assay

Increased apoptosis and ferroptosis in U87MG cells

Selective uptake of IONP

Outstanding therapeutic effect in nude mice models

Temozolomide [123]

TMZ@miR-100@antimiR-21@PEG-T7@GION

GBM cell-targeting T7 peptide was coated on GION shell

Cellular uptake was estimated by fluorescence microscope and flow cytometry

Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed by PI and TUNEL staining

The GION system was administrated through intranasal method in nude mice model

Sensitized GBM cell to TMZ therapy

Upregulated p53, PTEN, PDCD4 and Caspase-3 levels

Satisfactory therapeutic outcome in vitro/vivo

HAPtS [124]

HAPtS@CPTES@SPION

HAPtS was a synthetic derivative of Trans-resveratrol, acting as antioxidant

Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay was conducted as antioxidant test

Clonogenic survival, FDA and MTT assay were utilized to assess cytotoxicity

Enhanced cytotoxicity against C6 cells in vitro

Damage on plasma membrane instead of mitochondrial metabolism

Paclitaxel [125]

PTX@LinTT1@IONW

Tumor homing peptide LinTT1 peptide was a recently identified ligand of p32

Cellular uptake was evaluated by flow cytometry

The in vivo bio-distribution and therapeutic effect were assessed in nude mice model

Accumulation of IONW systems in tumor site

Inhibited tumor growth in vivo
