Polysaccharide–Silica Fluorescent Polymer Carrier for Selective Sensing and Glioblastoma Multiforme Therapy
摘要
Gliomas are aggressive primary brain tumors with poor treatment outcomes due to their infiltrative nature and therapy resistance. To address this, we developed a targeted nanoplatform based on compound 1 (1), a bioactive molecule extracted from Momordica charantia (M. charantia), functionalized with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) and D-glucosamine (GlcN) to yield GlcN-1-APTMS@CP1, and further loaded with quercetin (Qu) to form GlcN-1-APTMS@CP1@Quercetin. This system exhibited efficient drug loading (pore size reduced from 416.65 μm to 320.68 μm), pH/redox-responsive release, and strong fluorescence at 460 nm. It showed high selectivity for Fe3⁺ and glioma biomarkers, particularly Bcl-2 (K = 4.04 × 104 M⁻1, R2 = 0.9941), with robust stability and anti-interference performance. In vitro, the platform effectively triggered glioma cell apoptosis via the Bcl-2/Bax pathway, highlighting its potential as a plant-derived, quercetin-loaded nanomedicine for glioma therapy.
