The development of newer cisplatin analogs is constantly being investigated owing to its low solubility, poor pharmacokinetics, and dose-related toxicity. In order to address the limitations of current cisplatin therapy, the present study was undertaken. Cisplatin conjugation with an exopolysaccharide extracted from Lactobacillus gasseri (LG-EPS) showed remarkably enhanced and selective anticancer activity by targeting tumor cells overexpressing glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1). The EPS-cisplatin complex exhibited a 600-fold increase in aqueous solubility with a better pharmacokinetic profile (longer half-life) in comparison to cisplatin. Cell viability assay and western blotting demonstrated a strong correlation between the cytotoxicity profile and GLUT1 expressions in different cell lines. The concentration of DNA-bound platinum was also found to be significantly higher in EPS-cisplatin-treated cells. Quercetin, a competitive inhibitor of GLUTs, was shown to prevent this selective uptake of EPS-cisplatin complex. Surprisingly, EPS-cisplatin complex showed an exceptionally safer profile (4 times the maximum tolerated dose of cisplatin) in the acute toxicity study and was also more efficacious against the xenograft mice model. The study suggests that this green glycoconjugation can be an effective and safer strategy to broaden the therapeutic potential of anti-cancer drugs in general and cisplatin in particular.
