Lemon‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Nanodrugs Enable to Efficiently Overcome Cancer Multidrug Resistance by Endocytosis‐Triggered Energy Dissipation and Energy Production Reduction

Abstract Multidrug resistance remains a great challenge for cancer chemotherapy. Herein, a biomimetic drug delivery system based on lemon‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) nanodrugs (marked with heparin‐cRGD‐EVs‐doxorubicin (HRED)) is demonstrated, achieving highly efficient overcoming cancer multidrug resistance. The HRED is fabricated by modifying functional heparin‐cRGD (HR) onto the surface of EVs and then by loading with doxorubicin (DOX). The obtained HRED enable to effectively enter DOX‐resistant cancer cells by caveolin‐mediated endocytosis (main), macropinocytosis (secondary), and clathrin‐mediated endocytosis (last), exhibiting excellent cellular uptake capacity. The diversified endocytosis capacity of HRED can efficiently dissipate intracellular energy and meanwhile trigger downstream production reduction of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), leading to a significant reduction of drug efflux. Consequently, they show excellent anti‐proliferation capacities to DOX‐resistant ovarian cancer, ensuring the efficiently overcoming ovarian cancer multidrug resistance in vivo. The authors believe this strategy provides a new strategy by endocytosis triggered‐energy dissipation and ATP production reduction to design drug delivery system for overcoming cancer multidrug resistance.
