Multidrug resistance (MDR) is one of the leading causes of the failure of cancer chemotherapy and mainly attributed to the overexpression of drug efflux transporters in cancer cells, which is dependent on adenosine triphosphate (ATP). To overcome this phenomenon, herein, a mitochondrial-directed pH-sensitive polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanogel incorporating the hexokinase inhibitor lonidamine (LND) and the chemotherapeutic drug paclitaxel (PTX) was developed to restore the activity of PTX and synergistically treat drug-resistant tumors. The introduction of 2-dimethylaminoethanethiol (DMA) moiety into the nanogels not only promoted the drug loading capacity but also enabled the lysosomal escape of the nanogels. The subsequent mitochondrial targeting facilitated the accumulation and acid-triggered payload release in the mitochondria. The released LND can destroy the mitochondria by exhausting the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and restraining the energy supply, resulting in apoptosis and susceptibility of the MCF-7/MDR cells to PTX. Hence, the nanogel-enabled combination regimen of LND and PTX showed a boosted anti-tumor efficacy in MCF-7/MDR cells. These mitochondrial-directed pH-sensitive PVA nanogels incorporating both PTX and LND represent a new nanoplatform for MDR reversal and enhanced therapeutic efficacy.
