 @article{mo_jiang_sun_gu_2015, title={ATP-responsive DNA-graphene hybrid nanoaggregates for anticancer drug delivery}, volume={50}, ISSN={["1878-5905"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.biomaterials.2015.01.053}, abstractNote={Stimuli-triggered drug delivery systems are primarily focused on the applications of the tumor microenvironmental or cellular physiological cues to enhance the release of drugs at the target site. In this study, we applied adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP), the primary “energy molecule”, as a trigger for enhanced release of preloaded drugs responding to the intracellular ATP concentration that is significantly higher than the extracellular level. A new ATP-responsive anticancer drug delivery strategy utilizing DNA-graphene crosslinked hybrid nanoaggregates as carriers was developed for controlled release of doxorubicin (DOX), which consists of graphene oxide (GO), two single-stranded DNA (ssDNA, denoted as DNA1 and DNA2) and ATP aptamer. The single-stranded DNA1 and DNA2 together with the ATP aptamer serve as the linkers upon hybridization for controlled assembly of the DNA-GO nanoaggregates, which effectively inhibited the release of DOX from the GO nanosheets. In the presence of ATP, the responsive formation of the ATP/ATP aptamer complex causes the dissociation of the aggregates, which promoted the release of DOX in the environment with a high ATP concentration such as cytosol compared with that in the ATP-deficient extracellular fluid. This supports the development of a novel ATP-responsive platform for targeted on-demand delivery of anticancer drugs inside specific cells.}, journal={BIOMATERIALS}, author={Mo, Ran and Jiang, Tianyue and Sun, Wujin and Gu, Zhen}, year={2015}, month={May}, pages={67–74} }

Here we utilize adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) as a trigger for the controlled release of anticancer drugs. We demonstrate that polymeric nanocarriers functionalized with an ATP-binding aptamer-incorporated DNA motif can selectively release the intercalating doxorubicin via a conformational switch when in an ATP-rich environment. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration of ATP-responsive nanovehicles is 0.24 μM in MDA-MB-231 cells, a 3.6-fold increase in the cytotoxicity compared with that of non-ATP-responsive nanovehicles. Equipped with an outer shell crosslinked by hyaluronic acid, a specific tumour-targeting ligand, the ATP-responsive nanocarriers present an improvement in the chemotherapeutic inhibition of tumour growth using xenograft MDA-MB-231 tumour-bearing mice. This ATP-triggered drug release system provides a more sophisticated drug delivery system, which can differentiate ATP levels to facilitate the selective release of drugs.}, journal={NATURE COMMUNICATIONS}, author={Mo, Ran and Jiang, Tianyue and DiSanto, Rocco and Tai, Wanyi and Gu, Zhen}, year={2014}, month={Mar} }

Glucose can passively transport across the bilayer membrane of the nanovesicle and be oxidized into gluconic acid by glucose oxidase, thereby causing a decrease in local pH. The acidic microenvironment causes the hydrolysis of the pH sensitive nanovesicle that in turn triggers the release of insulin in a glucose responsive fashion. In vitro studies validated that the release of insulin from nanovesicle was effectively correlated with the external glucose concentration. In vivo experiments, in which diabetic mice were subcutaneously administered with the nanovesicles, demonstrate that a single injection of the developed nanovesicle facilitated stabilization of the blood glucose levels in the normoglycemic state (<200 mg/dL) for up to 5 days.}, number={10}, journal={BIOMACROMOLECULES}, author={Tai, Wanyi and Mo, Ran and Di, Jin and Subramanian, Vinayak and Gu, Xiao and Buse, John B. and Gu, Zhen}, year={2014}, month={Oct}, pages={3495–3502} }

The NCl was assembled from a long-chain single-stranded DNA synthesized by rolling-circle amplification (RCA). Multiple GC-pair sequences were integrated into the NCl for enhanced loading capacity of the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). Meanwhile, negatively charged DNase I was encapsulated in a positively charged acid-degradable polymeric nanogel to facilitate decoration of DNase I into the NCl by electrostatic interactions. In an acidic environment, the activity of DNase I was activated through the acid-triggered shedding of the polymeric shell of the NCa, resulting in the cocoon-like self-degradation of the NCl and promoting the release of DOX for enhanced therapeutic efficacy.}, number={42}, journal={JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY}, author={Sun, Wujin and Jiang, Tianyue and Lu, Yue and Reiff, Margaret and Mo, Ran and Gu, Zhen}, year={2014}, month={Oct}, pages={14722–14725} }

The traditional administration requires frequent subcutaneous insulin injections that are associated with poor patient compliance, including pain, local tissue necrosis, infection, and nerve damage. Taking advantage of emerging micro- and nanotechnologies, numerous alternative strategies integrated with chemical approaches for insulin delivery have been investigated. This review outlines recent developments in the controlled delivery of insulin, including oral, nasal, pulmonary, transdermal, subcutaneous and closed-loop insulin delivery. Perspectives from new materials, formulations and devices at the micro- or nano-scales are specifically surveyed.

Herein, a core–shell‐based “nanodepot” consisting of a liposomal core and a crosslinked‐gel shell (designated Gelipo) is developed for the sequential and site‐specific delivery (SSSD) of tumor necrosis factor‐related apoptosis‐inducing ligand (TRAIL) and doxorubicin (Dox). As a small‐molecule drug intercalating the nuclear DNA, Dox is loaded in the aqueous core of the liposome, while TRAIL, acting on the death receptor (DR) on the plasma membrane, is encapsulated in the outer shell made of crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA). The degradation of the HA shell by HAase that is concentrated in the tumor environment results in the rapid extracellular release of TRAIL and subsequent internalization of the liposomes. The parallel activity of TRAIL and Dox show synergistic anticancer efficacy. The half‐maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of TRAIL and Dox co‐loaded Gelipo (TRAIL/Dox‐Gelipo) toward human breast cancer (MDA‐MB‐231) cells is 83 ng mL–1 (Dox concentration), which presents a 5.9‐fold increase in the cytotoxicity compared to 569 ng mL–1 of Dox‐loaded Gelipo (Dox‐Gelipo). Moreover, with the programmed choreography, Gelipo significantly improves the inhibition of the tumor growth in the MDA‐MB‐231 xenograft tumor animal model.}, number={16}, journal={ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS}, author={Jiang, Tianyue and Mo, Ran and Bellotti, Adriano and Zhou, Jianping and Gu, Zhen}, year={2014}, month={Apr}, pages={2295–2304} }
