Abstract: Polyamines are essential for the growth ofeukaryotic cells and can be dysregulated in tumors. Here we describe a strategyto deplete polyamines through host–guest encapsulation using apeptide-pillar[5]arene conjugate (P1P5A, P1 = RGDSK(N3)EEEE)as a supramolecular trap. The RGD in the peptide sequence allows the moleculeto bind to integrin αvβ3-overexpressing tumor cells. Thenegative charged glutamic acid residues enhance the inclusion affinitiesbetween the pillar[5]arene and cationic polyamines via electrostaticinteractions and facilitate the solubility of the conjugate in aqueous media.The trap P1P5A efficiently encapsulates polyamines with association constantsof 105–106 M−1. We show that P1P5A has a wide spectrum ofantitumor activities, and induces apoptosis via affecting the polyaminebiosynthetic pathway. Experiments in vivo show that P1P5A effectively inhibitsthe growth of breast adenocarcinoma xenografts in female nude mice. This workreveals an approach for suppressing tumor growth by using supramolecularmacrocycles to trap polyamines in tumor cells.
