An important limitation to successful cancer treatment with chemotherapeutics is the inability to achieve therapeutically effective drug concentrations while avoiding healthy tissue damage. In this work, a new tumor-targeting peptide iRGD (CCRGDKGPDC) was used to modify drug-loaded low temperature-sensitive liposomes (iRGD-LTSL-DOX) to explore the anti-tumor effects in combination with high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in vitro and in vivo. iRGD-LTSL-DOX can specifically target to alpha nu beta 3-positive cells and locally release the encapsulated doxorubicin (DOX) in a hyperthermia-triggered manner. In vivo results showed that DOX from iRGD-LTSL-DOX was intravascularly released and rapidly penetrated into tumor interstitial space after HIFU-triggered heat treatment, thereby overcoming the limited tumor penetration of anticancer drugs. Significantly stronger anti-tumor efficacy further supported the effective combination of iRGD-LTSL-DOX with HIFU-induced hyperthermia. Our study provided a novel tumor-targeting LTSL-DOX and demonstrated its usefulness in HIFU-induced hyperthermia-triggered drug delivery. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
