Summary

The aim of this study was to explore the synergistic anti-tumor effects of cytarabine hyaluronic acid-tyramine (Ara-HA-Tyr) hydrogel conjugates and radiotherapy (RT) in the Lewis lung cancer (LLC) xenograft model, and the mechanisms involved. The radiotherapy sensitization ratio (SER) of 0.5 μg cytarabine (Ara-C) was 1.619 in the LLC cells. Ara-HA-Tyr was prepared by encapsulating Ara-C into hyaluronic acid-tyramine (HA-Tyr) conjugates. The hydrogels were formed through the oxidative coupling of tyramines by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Mice engrafted with the LLC cells were given intra-tumoral injections of saline, Ara-C or Ara-HA-Tyr, with or without RT. The combination of Ara-HA-Tyr and RT increased survival compared to free Ara-C and RT (p < 0.05), and prolonged tumor growth delay (TGD). Furthermore, the RT + Ara-HA-Tyr combination therapy significantly reduced 18F-FDG uptake, induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M-phase, increased apoptosis and histone H2AX phosphorylation (γ-H2AX), and decreased the proliferation index (Ki67) in tumor cells compared to either monotherapy. Taken together, Ara-C encapsulated with HA-Tyr effectively sensitized tumor xenografts to RT and showed significantly less systemic toxicity.
