[PMID: 37857677 PMCID: PMC10587155 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43725-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Lactoferrin (LF) is a non-heme iron-binding glycoprotein involved in the transport of iron in blood plasma. In addition, it has many biological functions, including antibacterial, antiviral, antimicrobial, antiparasitic, and, importantly, antitumor properties. In this study, we have investigated the potential of employing lactoferrin-iron oxide nanoparticles (LF-IONPs) as a treatment modality for gastric cancer. The study confirms the formation of LF-IONPs with a spherical shape and an average size of 5 ± 2 nm, embedded within the protein matrix. FTIR and Raman analysis revealed that the Fe-O bond stabilized the protein particle interactions. Further, we conducted hyperthermia studies to ascertain whether the proposed composite can generate a sufficient rise in temperature at a low frequency. The results confirmed that we can achieve a temperature rise of about 7 °C at 242.4 kHz, which can be further harnessed for gastric cancer treatment. The particles were further tested for their anti-cancer activity on AGS cells, with and without hyperthermia. Results indicate that LF-IONPs (10 µg/ml) significantly enhance cytotoxicity, resulting in the demise of 67.75 ± 5.2% of cells post hyperthermia, while also exhibiting an inhibitory effect on cell migration compared to control cells, with the most inhibition observed after 36 h of treatment. These findings suggest the potential of LF-IONPs in targeted hyperthermia treatment of gastric cancer.

Abstract
Melanoma is a dangerous type of skin cancer sometimes treated with radiotherapy. However, it induces damage to the surrounding healthy tissue and possibly further away areas. Therefore, it is necessary to give a lower dose to the patient with targeted therapy. In this study, the radio-sensitising effect of gold-coated iron oxide nanoparticles on electron beam radiotherapy of a melanoma tumour with magnetic targeting in a mouse model was investigated. Gold-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared in a steady procedure. The melanoma tumour model was induced in mice. Animals were divided into five groups: (1) normal; (2) melanoma; (3) gold-coated iron oxide nanoparticles alone; (4) electron beam radiotherapy; (5) electron beam radiotherapy plus gold-coated iron oxide nanoparticles. The magnet was placed on the tumour site for 2 h. The tumours were then exposed to 6 MeV electron beam radiotherapy for a dose of 8 Gy. Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry test, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay blood test were also performed. Gold-coated iron oxide nanoparticles with magnetic targeting before electron beam radiotherapy reduced the growth of the tumour compared to the control group. Blood tests did not show any significant toxicity. Deposition of nanoparticles was more in the tumour and spleen tissue and to a lesser extent in the liver, kidney, and lung tissues. The synergistic effect of nanoparticles administered by the intraperitoneal route and then concentrated into the tumour area by application of an external permanent magnet, before delivery of the electron beam radiotherapy improved the overall cancer treatment outcome and prevented metal distribution side effects.

Apigenin-coated gold nanoparticles as a cardioprotective strategy against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in male rats via reducing apoptosis. Heliyon 2023; 9:e14024. [PMID: 36915508 PMCID: PMC10006676 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e14024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2022] [Revised: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims Cardiotoxicity is associated with doxorubicin (DOX), an effective anticancer drug. Apigenin has cardioprotective properties; it may be employed as a capping and reducing agent in synthesizing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). This study examined the cardioprotective impact of AuNPs synthesized with apigenin (Api) in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). Main methods Api-AuNPs were synthesized in a single pot without needing additional reagents for reducing gold ions or stabilizing the NPs. The cytotoxicity of Api-AuNPs on H9c2 heart cells was subsequently determined using the MTT assay. In the animal investigation, 40 male rats were randomly assigned to one of four groups: control, cardiotoxicity (DOX), DOX treated with apigenin (DOX + Api), or DOX treated with Api-AuNPs (DOX + Api-AuNPs). To examine heart function, echocardiography was conducted. Blood samples were obtained to evaluate injury indicators (Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), Cardiac Troponin I (cTn-I), Alanine transaminase (ALT), and Aspartate transaminase (AST)). The heart was removed under general anesthetic, weighed, and preserved in formalin solution. Six micrometer-thick cardiac tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin, eosin (H&E), and immunohistochemistry to identify cardiomyocyte apoptotic markers (Bax, Bcl-2, and caspase3). Key findings Api-AuNPs have an average size of 21.4 ± 11.6 nm and are stable in physiological environments. Api-AuNPs therapy substantially reduced body and heart weight loss compared to the DOX group. Injury indicators were reduced dramatically by Api-AuNPs treatment. Api-AuNPs inhibited myocardial apoptosis via modulating Bax, caspase3, and Bcl-2 and ameliorating tissue damage caused by DOX. Significance Api-AuNPs' anti-apoptotic activities provide cardioprotection against DIC. It has the potential to reduce cardiotoxicity and boost myocardial performance.

[PMID: 37205904 PMCID: PMC10188950 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1174330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is a disease that most commonly produce tumours from the lining of the epithelial cells of the lips, larynx, nasopharynx, mouth, or oro-pharynx. It is one of the most deadly forms of cancer. About one to two percent of all neo-plasm-related deaths are attributed to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, which is responsible for about six percent of all cancers. MicroRNAs play a critical role in cell proliferation, differentiation, tumorigenesis, stress response, triggering apoptosis, and other physiological process. MicroRNAs regulate gene expression and provide new diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic options for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. In this work, the role of molecular signaling pathways related to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is emphasized. We also provide an overview of MicroRNA downregulation and overexpression and its role as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. In recent years, MicroRNA nano-based therapies for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma have been explored. In addition, nanotechnology-based alternatives have been discussed as a promising strategy in exploring therapeutic paradigms aimed at improving the efficacy of conventional cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents against head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and attenuating their cytotoxicity. This article also provides information on ongoing and recently completed clinical trials for therapies based on nanotechnology.

Green synthesized apigenin conjugated gold nanoparticles inhibit cholangiocarcinoma cell activity and endothelial cell angiogenesis in vitro. Heliyon 2022; 8:e12028. [PMID: 36506385 PMCID: PMC9732323 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e12028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2022] [Revised: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a rare malignancy of the biliary tract with extremely poor clinical outcomes due to a lack of effective therapies to improve disease management. The emerging green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has extensively provided their use in biomedical applications. In this study, we developed AuNPs via reducing gold salts with apigenin (4',5,7-trihydroxyflavone). The synthesized apigenin-conjugated AuNPs (api-AuNPs) were physicochemically characterized by various techniques before evaluation their biological and functional inhibition in a CCA cell line, KKU-M055. The mean size of api-AuNPs was 90.34 ± 22.82 nm with zeta potential of -36 ± 0.55. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50, 0.8 mg/mL) of api-AuNPs on cell proliferation of KKU-M055 was 1.9-fold less than that of an immortalized human cholangiocyte cell line, MMNK1 (IC50, 1.5 mg/mL). Moreover, api-AuNPs induced cell apoptosis via the up-regulation of Bax, Bid, and Caspase 3, and down-regulation of Bcl2, leading to elevated caspase 3/7, 8, 9 activities and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. The api-AuNPs significantly inhibited the migration of KKU-M055 cells and suppressed the proliferation, migration, and in vitro tube formation of vascular endothelial cells. Collectively, our findings indicate the dual abilities of api-AuNPs that potentially inhibit cancer cell growth and motility as well as endothelial cell-mediated angiogenesis, which may offer a novel therapeutic avenue to treat CCA patients effectively.
