Enzyme-instructed formation of antineoplastic hydrogels

技术优势
This platform technology improves the safety and efficacy of anti-cancer drugs;Enzyme-instructed self-assembly is a facile strategy for generating the supramolecular hydrogels of molecules that inherently have poor solubility in water;Molecular hydrogels of these hydrophobic drug molecules serve as delivery systems for long term or local delivery of anticancer drugs for chemotherapy;Unlike conventional drug delivery systems, this invention does not require a polymer matrix.
详细技术说明
Enzyme-instructed formation of antineoplastic hydrogels
*Abstract

Cancer remains a major challenge to the public health. Therefore, there exists a need for more effective cancer treatments. To improve anti-cancer efficacy and to counteract chemotherapeutic side effects, drug carriers that improve the water solubility of anti-cancer drugs and target tumor cells have been developed. However, conventional drug delivery systems require a polymer matrix, which suffers from degradation and low biocompatibility and low drug capacity.

The current invention overcomes these limitations with nanofibers based on enzyme-triggered self-assembly of small molecules, providing a powerful method to create molecular hydrogels of clinically-used therapeutics without compromising their bioactivities. As both the delivery vehicle and the drug itself (taxol), these molecular nanofibers have tremendous potential as anticancer nanomedicines.
