Objective: To prepare luteolin micelles encapsulated by hyaluronic acid and evaluate its inhibition on lung cancer xenografts in mice. Methods: Reverse phase evaporation method was used to prepare hyaluronic acid-coated luteolin micelles (HA-LE-MC). The prescription was screened with encapsulation efficiency and particle size as optimization indicators, and its apparent morphology,drug loa-ding, encapsulation efficiency and particle size were determined and finally in vivo imaging experiments and in vivo anti-tumor experiments. Results: The best mass ratio of poloxamer 407 (F127) and didecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide (DDAB) was 9 ∶1, and the particle size of HA-LE-MC was about (140.0±1.8) nm, the encapsulation rate was (61.2±2.4) %. The drug loading was (74.0±1.2) μg/mL. In vivo imaging experiments showed that micelles were concentrated in the tumor site after tail vein injection, indicating that micelles had strong tumor targeting. In vivo anti-tumor experiments showed that compared with luteolin HALEMC had stronger inhibitory effect on Lewis lung cancer xenograft tumors (P<0.01), and it had lower side effects compared with the positive drug cisplatin (P<0.05), and could enhance the immune function of tumor-bearing mice. Conclusion: The prepared HA-LE-MC had targeted properties, enhanced antitumor activity and could enhance the immune function of tumor-bearing mice and improve the survival of mice with explanted lung cancer.
