A novel approach in targeted drug delivery involves using abiotic metal-triggered prodrug mechanisms, particularly through gold-catalyzed activation under physiological conditions. The use of a gold artificial metalloenzyme based on human serum albumin for prodrug activation enhances biocompatibility and therapeutic efficacy, showing potential for anticancer applications.
An emerging approach in the field of targeted drug delivery is the establishment of abiotic metal-triggered prodrug mechanisms that can control the release of bioactive drugs. Currently, the design of prodrugs that use abiotic metals as a trigger relies heavily on uncaging strategies. Here, we introduce a strategy based on the gold-catalyzed activation of a phenanthridinium-based prodrug via hydroamination under physiological conditions. To make the prodrug strategy biocompatible, a gold artificial metalloenzyme (ArM) based on human serum albumin, rather than the free gold metal complex, was used as a trigger for prodrug activation. The albumin-based gold ArM protected the catalytic activity of the bound gold metal even in the presence of up to 1 mM glutathione in vitro. The drug synthesized via the gold ArM exerted a therapeutic effect in cell-based assays, highlighting the potential usefulness of the gold ArM in anticancer applications.
