Effect of gold nanocomposite bearing HIF-1α siRNA on radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell
Purpose: To investigate the effect of gold nanocomposite carrying hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) siRNA on radiosensitivity of nasopharynx cancer (NPC) cells.
Methods: Gold nanocomposite (AuNRs-(PEI-PEG)/RGD) or (AuPPR) was first synthesized and its cytotoxicity was evaluated. Then, the expression of HIF-1α in hypoxic NPC cells was assessed. In addition, the radiation sensitivity of AuPPR bearing HIF-1α siRNA on the cells was examined under xray exposure.
Result: Gold nanocomposite (AuPPR) carrying HIF-1α siRNA (AuPPR-HIF-1α siRNA) significantly down-regulated HIF-1α expression. Under irradiation treatment, AuPPR-HIF-1α siRNA significantly enhanced apoptosis of NPC cells by 33.76 ± 3.65 %, when compared to the control and simple AuPPR group (22.5 ± 4.16 %, p < 0.01). Furthermore, cell cycle was significantly blocked in the sub-G1 phase in AuPPR-HIF-1α siRNA radiotherapy groups, indicating severe cell damage.
Conclusion: This study has demonstrated that AuPPR-HIF-1α siRNA is effective in improving the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells under hypoxia, and therefore can potentially be used to improve the radiotherapy of this carcinoma
期刊介绍:
We seek to encourage pharmaceutical and allied research of tropical and international relevance and to foster multidisciplinary research and collaboration among scientists, the pharmaceutical industry and the healthcare professionals.
We publish articles in pharmaceutical sciences and related disciplines (including biotechnology, cell and molecular biology, drug utilization including adverse drug events, medical and other life sciences, and related engineering fields). Although primarily devoted to original research papers, we welcome reviews on current topics of special interest and relevance.
