AuNP flares-capped mesoporous silica nanoplatform for MTH1 detection and inhibition
چکیده انگلیسی

The human mutT homologue MTH1, a nucleotide pool sanitizing enzyme, represents a vulnerability factor and an attractive target for anticancer therapy. However, there is currently a lack of selective and effective platforms for the detection and inhibition of MTH1 in cells. Here, we demonstrate for the first time a gold nanoparticle (AuNP) flares-capped mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) nanoplatform that is capable of detecting MTH1 mRNA and simultaneously suppressing MTH1 activity. The AuNP flares are made from AuNPs that are functionalized with a dense shell of MTH1 recognition sequences hybridized to short cyanine (Cy5)-labeled reporter sequences and employed to seal the pores of MSN to prevent the premature MTH1 inhibitors (S-crizotinib) release. Just like the pyrotechnic flares that produce brilliant light when activated, the resulting AuNP flares@MSN (S-crizotinib) undergo a significant burst of red fluorescence enhancement upon MTH1 mRNA binding. This hybridization event subsequently induces the opening of the pores and the release of S-crizotinib in an mRNA-dependent manner, leading to significant cytotoxicity in cancer cells and improved therapeutic response in mouse xenograft models. We anticipate that this nanoplatform may be an important step toward the development of MTH1-targeting theranostics and also be a useful tool for cancer phenotypic lethal anticancer therapy.
