Abstract

Herein, the authors synthesised chitosan nanoparticles (Cs NPs) as a resveratrol (RSV) carrier and evaluated their efficacy in stimulating apoptosis in MDA-MB 231 cells. Blank (Cs NPs) and RSV- Cs NPs (RSV-Cs NPs) were synthesised via ionic gelation and characterised by using fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron microscope, dynamic light scattering/Zeta potential and RSV release. MDA-MB 231 cells were treated with RSV, Cs NPs and RSV-Cs NPs (24, 48, and 72 h), followed by the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. Cell toxicity was evaluated using lactate dehydrogenase assay, and real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed to explore apoptosis induction. FTIR spectra confirmed the NPs via the formation of cross-linking bonds. Cs and RSV-Cs NPs sizes were about 75 and 198 nm with 14 and 24 mV zeta potentials. The RSV entrapment efficiency was 52.34 ± 0.16%, with an early rapid release followed by a sustained manner. Cs and RSV-Cs NPs inhibited cell proliferation at lower concentrations and IC50 values. RSV-Cs NPs had the most cytotoxic effect and stimulated intrinsic apoptotic pathway, indicated by increased Bcl-2-associated x (BAX), BAX/Bcl-2 ratio, P53 expressions, reduced Bcl-2 and upregulated caspases 3, 8 and 9. RSV-Cs NPs have a great potential to suppress invasive breast cancer cell proliferation by targeting mitochondrial metabolism and inducing the intrinsic apoptotic pathway.

壳聚糖/白藜芦醇聚合物纳米复合物对三阴性乳腺癌的抗癌作用体外评估

在此，作者合成了壳聚糖纳米颗粒(Cs NPs)作为白藜芦醇(RSV)的载体，并评估了它们对MDA-MB 231细胞凋亡的刺激作用。采用离子凝胶法制备了空白(Cs NPs)和RSV-Cs NPs (RSV-Cs NPs)，并利用傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、扫描电镜、动态光散射/Zeta电位和RSV释放量对其进行了表征。分别用RSV、Cs NPs和RSV-Cs NPs处理MDA-MB 231细胞(24、48和72 h)，然后进行3-[4,5-二甲基噻唑-2-基]-2,5-二苯四唑溴化试验。采用乳酸脱氢酶法评估细胞毒性，实时聚合酶链反应探讨细胞凋亡诱导。红外光谱通过交联键的形成证实了NPs的存在。Cs和RSV-Cs的NPs大小分别为75和198 nm, zeta电位分别为14和24 mV。RSV包埋效率为52.34±0.16%，具有早期快速释放后持续释放的特点。Cs和RSV-Cs NPs在较低浓度和IC50值下抑制细胞增殖。RSV-Cs NPs具有最大的细胞毒作用，并刺激了内在凋亡途径，表现为Bcl-2相关x (BAX)、BAX/Bcl-2比值、P53表达增加，Bcl-2减少，caspase 3、8和9上调。RSV-Cs NPs通过靶向线粒体代谢和诱导内在凋亡通路，具有抑制侵袭性乳腺癌细胞增殖的巨大潜力。

期刊介绍： Electrical and electronic engineers have a long and illustrious history of contributing new theories and technologies to the biomedical sciences. This includes the cable theory for understanding the transmission of electrical signals in nerve axons and muscle fibres; dielectric techniques that advanced the understanding of cell membrane structures and membrane ion channels; electron and atomic force microscopy for investigating cells at the molecular level. Other engineering disciplines, along with contributions from the biological, chemical, materials and physical sciences, continue to provide groundbreaking contributions to this subject at the molecular and submolecular level. Our subject now extends from single molecule measurements using scanning probe techniques, through to interactions between cells and microstructures, micro- and nano-fluidics, and aspects of lab-on-chip technologies. The primary aim of IET Nanobiotechnology is to provide a vital resource for academic and industrial researchers operating in this exciting cross-disciplinary activity. We can only achieve this by publishing cutting edge research papers and expert review articles from the international engineering and scientific community. To attract such contributions we will exercise a commitment to our authors by ensuring that their manuscripts receive rapid constructive peer opinions and feedback across interdisciplinary boundaries. IET Nanobiotechnology covers all aspects of research and emerging technologies including, but not limited to: Fundamental theories and concepts applied to biomedical-related devices and methods at the micro- and nano-scale (including methods that employ electrokinetic, electrohydrodynamic, and optical trapping techniques) Micromachining and microfabrication tools and techniques applied to the top-down approach to nanobiotechnology Nanomachining and nanofabrication tools and techniques directed towards biomedical and biotechnological applications (e.g. applications of atomic force microscopy, scanning probe microscopy and related tools) Colloid chemistry applied to nanobiotechnology (e.g. cosmetics, suntan lotions, bio-active nanoparticles) Biosynthesis (also known as green synthesis) of nanoparticles; to be considered for publication, research papers in this area must be directed principally towards biomedical research and especially if they encompass in vivo models or proofs of concept. We welcome papers that are application-orientated or offer new concepts of substantial biomedical importance Techniques for probing cell physiology, cell adhesion sites and cell-cell communication Molecular self-assembly, including concepts of supramolecular chemistry, molecular recognition, and DNA nanotechnology Societal issues such as health and the environment Special issues.
