Background
Paclitaxel (PTX for short) is a natural alkaloid with molecular formula C 47 H 51 NO 14 And the molecular weight is 853.91. Paclitaxel is a broad spectrum anticancer agent, has a wide therapeutic range, and is suitable for ovarian cancer, breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, gastric cancer, head and neck cancer, kaposi's sarcoma, and late forms of acute leukemia. Paclitaxel has unique anti-tumor action mechanism, and can bind with tubulin in cells and promote its polymerization, and prevent tubulin dissociation, thereby blocking mitosis of cells at G2/M stage, and promoting apoptosis of tumor cells.

After the end of the administration, the supernatant was discarded, washed 2 times with PBS, and 20. Mu.L of MTT solution (5.0 mg/mL) and 100. Mu.L of serum-free medium were added to each well and incubation was continued for 4h. After purple formazan crystals were formed, the supernatant was discarded, and 200. Mu.L of DMSO was added to each well. Shaking horizontally at room temperature for 20min to dissolve the crystals completely. The absorbance value (OD value) of each well was measured at a wavelength of 490nm using a microplate reader, and the antiproliferative activity was expressed as cell viability, and the calculation formula was as shown in formula 1:
Figure BDA0003803714370000092
in formula 1, ODd is the OD value of the cells incubated with the preparation sample, ODb is the OD value of the cell culture medium, and ODr is the OD value of the cells incubated with the culture medium alone.
The results of the in vitro anti-cell proliferation assay are shown in FIG. 4. The results show that under the same concentration at the same time, the inhibition rate of each preparation on the breast cancer cells is as follows:

(Taxol-Blank group) has lower toxicity; when the preparation concentration is 50 mu g/mL and the preparation is incubated for 48 hours, the survival rate of both cells is less than 10 percent.
3. Tumor growth inhibition experiment:
taking 30 BALB/c nude mice, establishing tumor-bearing nude mouse models, inoculating MDA-MB-231 cells for 7 days, and growing the tumor volume to about 100mm 3 Meanwhile, tumor-bearing nude mice were randomly divided into 3 groups of 10 mice each. The following three groups of formulations were administered by tail vein injection, respectively: (1) PTX-ME dose 10mg/kg;
Figure BDA0003803714370000099
the dosage is 10mg/kg; and (3) physiological saline (saline). The administration time was to grow to about 100mm in tumor size 3 The calculation is started, and the medicine is taken every three days, and the dosage of each time is the same as the first time. The living state of the tumor-bearing mice was observed, the body weights thereof were weighed on the day of administration, and the tumor volumes thereof were measured with a vernier caliper, and the tumor volumes were measured with V (mm) 3 ) And (4) showing. After the experiment is finished, a tumor growth curve is drawn by taking the average value of the tumor volume of each group of tumor-bearing nude mice as the ordinate and the measurement time as the abscissa; the results of the tumor growth inhibition experiment are shown in FIG. 5. And (4) statistically analyzing the tumor volume and calculating the tumor volume inhibition rate. The calculation formula of the tumor volume inhibition rate is shown as formula 2:
Figure BDA0003803714370000093
the results showed that the group administered PTX-ME and
Figure BDA0003803714370000094
has certain inhibiting effect on tumors, wherein the PTX-ME group has the best tumor inhibiting effect, the volume inhibiting rate of the PTX-ME group on the tumors is 68.09 percent,
Figure BDA0003803714370000095
the inhibition rate of the tumor volume is 56.50 percent.
4. Tumor-bearing nude mouse tissue distribution experiment:
after the tumor growth inhibition experiment is finished, paclitaxel microemulsion and paclitaxel microemulsion are respectively injected into tail vein according to the dose of 10mg/kg
Figure BDA0003803714370000101
Nude mice were sacrificed at 1h and 24h after drug administration, heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, brain, and tumor tissues were isolated, and after sample treatment, sample analysis by LC-MS was performed, and the results of the tumor-bearing nude mice tissue distribution experiment are shown in FIG. 6.
The experimental results show that PTX-ME is reacted with
Figure BDA0003803714370000102
Compared with the prior art, the PTX-ME liposome is less distributed in each tissue and tumor after administration for 1h, and the PTX-ME liposome is higher in tumor tissue concentration after administration for 24h, probably because the microemulsion has targeting property. PTX-ME comparison
Figure BDA0003803714370000103
There is less distribution of heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, brain, higher tumor distribution, meaning less toxicity and better antitumor effect.
