Selectively activating tumor vessels to increase drug delivery and reduce interstitial fluid pressure of tumors is actively pursued. Here we developed a vasoactive peptide-decorated chitosan nanoparticles for enhancing drug accumulation and penetration in subcutaneous tumor and lung metastasis. The vasoactive peptide used here is bradykinin-potentiating peptide (BPP) containing 9 amino acid residues and the drug is bioreductively sensitive platinum(IV) compound which becomes cisplatin in intracellular reductive environments. Both peptide and drug are covalently linked with chitosan nanoparticles with a diameter of 120 nm. We demonstrate that BPP-decorated chitosan nanoparticles increase the tumorous vascular permeability and reduce the interstitial fluid pressure of tumor simultaneously, both of which improve the penetration of nanoparticles in tumor tissues. The in vivo biodistribution and tumor inhibition examinations demonstrate that the BPP-decorated nanoparticle formulation has more superior efficacy in enhancing drug accumulation in tumor, restraining tumor growth and prolonging the lifetime of tumor-bearing mice than free drug and non-decorated nanoparticle formulation. Meanwhile, the drug accumulation in the lung with metastasis reaches 17% and 20% injected dose per gram of lung for the chitosan nanoparticles without and with BPP decoration, respectively, which is 10-fold larger than that of free cisplatin. The examination of lung metastasis inhibition further indicates that BPP-decorated chitosan nanoparticle formulations can more effectively inhibit lung metastasis. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
