Objective To prepare folic acid modified crebanine polyethylene glycol-polylactic acid hydroxyacetic acid copolymer nanoparticles (FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs) and investigate their in vitro release and anti-tumor activity. Methods FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs were prepared by ultrasonic emulsion-solvent evaporation method with crebanine as a model drug, polyethylene glycol-polylactic acid hydroxyacetic acid (PEG-PLGA) copolymer and folic acid (FA) as materials. The particle size, potential and morphology of FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs were characterized by laser particle size measurement, transmission electron microscopy and fluorescence microscope. The encapsulation rate and drug loading capacity of crebanine were determined and calculated by Ultraviolet spectroscopy. Meanwhile, the in vitro release patterns of FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs and crebanine bulk drug at 72 h were compared. The biological properties were investigated by hemolysis assay. The safety evaluation on L02 cells and the proliferation inhibition on Bel-7402 cells were investigated by CCK-8 assay in vitro. The proliferation of Bel-7402 cells was quantified by cell wound scratch assay. Finally, the uptake capacity of nanoparticles to Bel-7402 cells at different time points was observed by fluorescence microscope. Results The average particle size of FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs was (247.67 ±2.49) nm, with a polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.139 ±0.027 and a ζ potential of (-9.40 ±0.54) mV. The transmission electron microscopy revealed a core-shell structure, while the fluorescence microscopy showed blue dots in the bright field and red dots in the dark area after gasification. The encapsulation rate of crebanine in nanoparticles was 83.78% and the drug loading was 67.78%. The release of FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs and crebanine bulk drug conformed to the Ritger-Peppas model in vitro. The safety evaluation showed that FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs had good biocompatibility within the range of 50-300 μg/mL compared with crebanine bulk drug. The FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs showed lower toxicity to L02 cells than crebanine bulk drug. The proliferation inhibition results showed dose-dependent and time-dependent effects on the proliferation of Bel-7402 cells in vitro. Moreover, the FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation had stronger killing effect on Bel-7402 cells. The cell wound scratch experiments showed that both the crebanine bulk drug and FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs inhibited the migration of Bel-7402 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and the nanoparticles combined with ultrasound irradiation could inhibit the migration of tumor cells more significantly. The cell uptake experiment showed that nanoparticles combined with ultrasound irradiation could effectively enhance the uptake of tumor cells at the same time. Conclusion The FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs were successfully prepared, and exhibited good slow-release effect and antitumor effect in vitro, providing an experimental basis for the application of FA-Cre@PEG-PLGA NPs in the treatment of liver cancer.
