OBJECTIVES: Monotherapy is often ineffective for treating colorectal cancer. In this study, we developed PEG-modified liposomes loaded with rapamycin (Rapa) and resveratrol (Res) (Rapa/Res liposomes, or RRL) to investigate their therapeutic potential in colorectal cancer.
METHODS: RRL were constructed using the reversed-phase evaporation method. We assessed the cytotoxicity, apoptosis, and ferroptotic effects of RRL on colorectal cancer HCT116 cells. The anti-tumor efficacy of RRL was evaluated in HCT116 xenograft mice.
RESULTS: RRL had a particle size of 86.67 ± 1.10 nm and a zeta potential of -33.13 ± 0.49 mV. The coloaded formulation demonstrated satisfactory performance both in vitro and in vivo, resulting in increased cytotoxicity to HCT116 cells and significant suppression of HCT116 xenografts tumor growth. Mechanically, RRL significantly increased the apoptosis rate of HCT116 cells, induced ROS accumulation in tumor cells, and effectively downregulated the expression of the ferroptosis-associated proteins GPX4 and SLC7A11, demonstrating its superior efficacy compared to that of Rapa liposomes (Rapa/Lps) or Res liposomes (Res/Lps) alone.
CONCLUSION: Coloading Rapa and Res into liposomes to promote apoptosis and ferroptosis in tumor cells represents a promising strategy for the treatment of colorectal cancer.
