It has been demonstrated that resveratrol can inhibit tumor proliferation and metastasis, but its application is limited due to poor water solubility and low bioavailability. In this study, we proposed to prepare folate-modified liposomes loaded with resveratrol to investigate its anti-osteosarcoma effect in vitro and in vivo.Methods: We prepared and characterized resveratrol liposomes modified with folate (denoted as, FA-Res/Lps). The effects of FA-Res/Lps on human osteosarcoma cell 143B proliferation, apoptosis, and migration were investigated by MTT, cell cloning, wound-healing assay, transwell, and flow cytometry. A xenograft tumor and lung metastasis model of osteosarcoma was constructed to study the therapeutic effects of FA-Res/Lps on the growth and metastasis of osteosarcoma in vivo.Results: The FA-Res/Lps were prepared with a particle size of 118.5 ± 0.71 and a small dispersion coefficient of 0.154 ± 0.005. We found that FA-modified liposomes significantly increased resveratrol uptake by osteosarcoma cells 143B in flow cytometric assay, resulting in FA-Res/Lps, which inhibit tumor proliferation, migration and induce apoptosis more effectively than free Res and Res/Lps. The mechanism of action may be associated with the inhibition of JAK2/STAT3 signaling. In vivo imaging demonstrated that FA-modified DiR-modified liposomes significantly increased the distribution of drugs at the tumor site, leading to significant inhibition of osteosarcoma growth and metastasis by FA-Res/Lps. Furthermore, we found that FA-Res/Lps did not cause any adverse effects on mice body weight, liver, or kidney tissues.Conclusion: Taken together, the anti-osteosarcoma effect of resveratrol is significantly enhanced when it is loaded into FA-modified liposomes. FA-Res/Lps is a promising strategy for the treatment of osteosarcoma.Keywords: resveratrol, liposomes, osteosarcoma, lung metastasis, JAK2/STAT3 pathway |
