However, its poor water solubility and rapid metabolism <em>in vivo</em> have limited its therapeutic potential, inspiring the development of delivery systems such as those based on nanotechnology. Previously, we reported that partial oxidation of the plant polyphenol quercetin (QCT) creates an amphiphilic material that self-assembles into discrete nanoparticles (NPs), either alone or with other polymers. Here we developed a nanoparticle (NP) formulation for CUR based on partially oxidized QCT (oxQCT).

CUR was entrapped in oxQCT/TPGS NPs <em>via</em> nanoprecipitation, yielding spherical NPs (87 nm) with 72% loading efficiency, high colloidal stability, and sustained release at physiological pH. The anticancer activity of CUR NPs was evaluated in MCF-7 cells as a model breast cancer cell line, where the oxQCT/TPGS vehicle synergized with free CUR in inducing cell death and promoted its cellular uptake. In RAW 264.7 macrophages, the NPs outperformed free CUR in anti-inflammatory assays by exhibiting stronger reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activities and attenuating the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. We complemented the biological assays with synchrotron-Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy (SR-μFTIR), which provided insights into biochemical changes in the lipid and protein compositions of MCF-7 and RAW 264.7 macrophages treated with CUR NPs.
