Due to the critical role of CD44 in mediating cell adhesion and migration, CD44-targeted drug delivery via hyaluronan has been extensively explored. Herein, cationic bovine serum albumin nanoparticles were assembled with hyaluronan (HA) of various molecular weights via simple electrostatic interaction to afford hierarchical nanoparticles (HNPs) with various size distributions and structures. Next, HNPs obtained using 49 kDa HA have been used to encapsulate paclitaxel (PTX-HNPs), which demonstrated selective lung accumulation due to both size effect and CD44-mediated targetability. Biodistribution studies showed that HNPs enhanced the lung specific accumulation of HNPs in the C57BL/6 mice melanoma lung metastasis model. In the antitumor studies, compared with the Taxol or bovine serum albumin nanoparticle (NP) groups, PTX-HNPs significantly inhibited B16F10 lung metastasis at a relatively low dose. Additionally, cell migration and invasion experiments in vitro further confirmed that PTX-HNPs significantly inhibited the migration of B16F10 cells compared to Taxol or paclitaxel-loaded NP groups. Overall, our results suggest that PTX-HNPs represent a highly promising strategy for the treatment of lung metastatic melanoma.
