Synergetic approaches of fucoidan and trabectedin complex coated PLGA nanoparticles effectively suppresses proliferation and induce apoptosis for the treatment on non-small cell lung cancer.

Abstract

Traditional methods of treating lung cancer have not been very effective, contributing to the disease's high incidence and death rate. As a result, Fn/Tn-PLGA NPs, a novel directed fucoidan and trabectedin complex loaded PLGA nanoparticle, were produced to investigate the role of developing therapeutic strategies for NSCLC and A549 cell lines. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to examine protein expression and mRNA expression, respectively. Protein activity was knocked down using specific inhibitors and short disrupting RNA transfection. Lastly, cancer cell lines H1299 and A549 were subjected to an in vitro cytotoxicity experiment. Commercial assays were used to assess the levels of cell viability, ROS and proliferation found that Fn/Tn-PLGA NPs effectively killed lung cancer cells. To examine cell death, annexin flow cytometry was employed. In addition, a scratch-wound assay was conducted to assess the migration effects of Fn/Tn-PLGA NPs in a laboratory setting. Finally, PLGA NPs covered with a mix of fucoidan and trabectedin could be a good vehicle for targeting cancerous tissues with chemotherapeutic drugs.
