The objectives of the present study were to develop functional targeting epirubicin liposomes for transferring drugs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB), treating glioblastoma, and disabling neovascularization. The studies were performed on glioblastoma cells in vitro and on glioblastoma-bearing mice. The results showed that the constructed liposomes had a high encapsulation efficiency for drugs (&gt;95%), suitable particle size (109 nm), and less leakage in the blood component-containing system; were significantly able to be transported across the BBB; and exhibited efficacies in killing glioblastoma cells and in destroying glioblastoma neovasculature in vitro and in glioblastoma-bearing mice. The action mechanisms of functional targeting epirubicin liposomes correlated with the following features: the long circulation in the blood system, the ability to be transported across the BBB via glucose transporter-1, and the targeting effects on glioblastoma cells and on the endothelial cells of the glioblastoma neovasculature via the integrin β3 receptor. In conclusion, functional targeting epirubicin liposomes could be used as a potential therapy for treating brain glioblastoma and disabling neovascularization in brain glioblastomas.
