Chemotherapeutic drugs used for cancer therapy frequently encounter multiple-drug resistance (MDR). Nanoscale carriers that can target tumors to accumulate and release drugs intracellularly have the greatest potential for overcoming MDR. Glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1) and glutathione (GSH) overexpression in cancer cells was exploited to assemble aminoglucose (AG)-conjugated, redox-responsive nanomicelles from a single disulfide bond-bridged block polymer of polyethylene glycol and polylactic acid (AG-PEG-SS-PLA). However, whether this dual functional vector can overcome MDR in lung cancer is unknown. In this experiment, AG-PEG-SS-PLA was synthetized successfully, and paclitaxel (PTX)-loaded AG-PEG-SS-PLA (AG-PEG-SS-PLA/PTX) nanomicelles exhibited excellent physical properties. These nanomicelles show enhanced tumor targeting as well as drug accumulation and retention in MDR cancer cells. Caveolin-dependent endocytosis is mainly responsible for nanomicelle internalization. After internalization, the disulfide bond of AG-PEG-SS-PLA is cleaved in the presence of high intracellular glutathione levels, causing the hydrophobic core to become a polar aqueous solution, which subsequently results in nanomicelle disassembly and the rapid release of encapsulated PTX. Reduced drug resistance was observed in cancer cells in vitro. The caspase-9 and caspase-3 cascade was activated by the AG-PEG-SS-PLA/PTX nanomicelles through upregulation of the pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and Bid and suppr...

8. Two New Amino-Sugars from an Antigenic Polysaccharide ... - Nature
Two amino-sugars, designated 'pneumosamine' and 'amino-sugar X' have been isolated from purified Type V Pneumococcus capsular polysaccharide3, and preliminary ...
THOUGH a large number of antigenic capsular polysaccharides of Pneumococcus are known to contain one or more amino-sugars1, in only one case, namely, 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose (D-glucosamine) from type XIV polysaccharide2, has the amino-sugar been isolated and characterized. Two amino-sugars, designated ‘pneumosamine’ and ‘amino-sugar X’ have been isolated from purified Type V Pneumococcus capsular polysaccharide3, and preliminary investigations, which included analysis of the crystalline N-acetamido alcohol derivatives, indicated that both sugars were 2-amino-2,6-dideoxyhexoses. Kuhn-Roth determinations on ‘N-acetylpneumosaminol’ (1.52 moles CH3) and on ‘amino-sugar X’ (0.68 mole CH3) support the postulated 6-deoxyhexosamine structure. The sugars have now been tentatively identified as 2-amino-2,6-dideoxytalose (pneumosamine) and 2-amino-2,6-dideoxy-L-galactose (amino-sugar X). The sugars were isolated from a polysaccharide hydrolysate (hydrolysis conditions: 2 N hydrochloric acid, 24 hr., 100°) by chromatography on ‘Dowex-50’ resin4. The acidic effluents were neutralized with ‘Deacidite FF’ (carbonate form), lyophilized and the syrupy residues dried in vacuo over phosphorus pentoxide. Treatment of the ‘pneumosamine’ residue with methanol gave ‘pneumosamine hydrochloride’ melting point 162–3° (from methanol–ether); [α]18 D + 6.9° (10 min.), → + 10.4° equil. (cone. 2.3 in water).
