摘要

Despite significant advances in cancer therapy, there is an urgent need for drugs with a new mode of action that will preferentially kill cancer cells. Several cationic antimicrobial peptides, which bind strongly to negatively charged membranes, were shown to kill cancer cells slightly better than normal cells. This was explained by a slight increase (3-9%) in the level of the negatively charged membrane phosphatidylesrine (PS) in many cancer cells compared to their normal counterparts. Unfortunately, however, these peptides are inactivated by serum components. Here we synthesized and investigated the anticancer activity and the role of peptide charge, peptide structure, and phospholipid headgroup charge on the activity of a new group of diastereomeric lytic peptides (containing D- and L- forms of leucine and lysine; 15-17 amino acids long). The peptides are highly toxic to cancer cells, to a degree similar to or larger than that of mitomycin C. However, compared with mitomycin C and many native antimicrobial peptides, they are more selective for cancer cells. The peptides were investigated for (i) their binding to mono-and bilayer membranes by using the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique, (ii) their ability to permeate membranes by using fluorescence spectroscopy, (iii) their structure and their effect on the lipid order by using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, and (iv) their ability to bind to cancer versus normal cells by using confocal microscopy. The data suggest that the peptides disintegrate the cell membrane in a detergent-like manner. However, in contrast to native antimicrobial peptides, the diastereomers bind and permeate similarly zwitterionic and PS-containing model membranes. Therefore, cell selectivity is probably determined mainly by improved electrostatic attraction of the peptides to acidic components on the surface of cancer cells (e.g. O-glycosylation of mucines). The simple composition of the diastereomeric peptides and their stability regarding enzymatic egradation by serum components make them excellent candidates for new chemotherapeutic drugs.
