Glucose oxidase mediated targeted cancer-starving therapy by biotinylated self-assembled vesicles

Abstract

Herein, we demonstrate glucose oxidase (GOx) mediated targeted cancer-starving therapy by self-assembled vesicle of trimesic acid based biotinylated amphiphile (TMB). The TMB vesicles entrapped GOx and selectively killed cancer cells (HeLa, B16F10), with ∼6-fold higher efficiency compared to non-cancer cells (CHO, NIH3T3), by blocking the energy supply to tumors through the oxidation of intracellular glucose.
