Green fabrication of nanoparticles (NPs) using biological sources is the fast-growing trend replacing chemical synthesis via toxic materials. Considering the importance and feasibility of green fabricated NPs, the present research focuses on the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using the aqueous extract of the endophytic Cladosporium sp. (MycoAuNPs) isolated from Commiphora wightii. The synthesized MycoAuNPs are characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopic, FTIR, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The synthesized NPs showed a sharp absorption peak at 524 nm, with an average size between 5 and 10 nm in a spherical shape. XRD revealed the crystalline nature, and EDX profiling confirmed the presence of gold (Au) and oxygen (O) atoms. The biological potential of MycoAuNPs were tested under both in vitro and in vivo conditions. MycoAuNPs showed anti-cancer activity in breast cancer cell line MCF-7 (IC 38.23 µg/mL) through the induction of apoptosis. Further, MycoAuNPs showed potential against growth of tumor in tumor-bearing mice models. MycoAuNPs significantly reduced the body weight, ascites volume, and increased the lifespan of EAC bearing mice. It induced apoptosis of the EAC cells, which was confirmed by DNA fragmentation and Giemsa staining. Also, they did not develop any secondary complications or side effects in normal mice. The photocatalytic activity of MycoAuNPs tested against Rhodamine B and Methylene Blue dyes showed potential dye degradation in the presence of sunlight. Thus, the present study gives a clear idea of the multifaceted therapeutic and catalytic applications of the biosynthesized MycoAuNPs.
采用生物来源的绿色方法来制备纳米颗粒(NPs)正在取代使用有毒材料的化学合成方法,成为一种快速发展的趋势。考虑到绿色制备的 NPs 的重要性和可行性,本研究聚焦于使用从 Commiphora wightii 中分离的内生 Cladosporium sp.(MycoAuNPs)的水提物合成金纳米颗粒(AuNPs)。采用紫外-可见分光光度法、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、X 射线衍射(XRD)分析和透射电子显微镜(TEM)对合成的 MycoAuNPs 进行了表征。合成的 NPs 在 524nm 处显示出尖锐的吸收峰,平均粒径在 5 到 10nm 之间,呈球形。XRD 显示出结晶性质,EDX 剖析证实存在金(Au)和氧(O)原子。在体外和体内条件下测试了 MycoAuNPs 的生物潜力。MycoAuNPs 通过诱导细胞凋亡,在乳腺癌细胞系 MCF-7 中表现出抗癌活性(IC 38.23µg/mL)。此外,MycoAuNPs 对荷瘤小鼠模型中的肿瘤生长具有潜在作用。MycoAuNPs 显著降低了荷瘤小鼠的体重、腹水体积,并延长了 EAC 荷瘤小鼠的寿命。它诱导了 EAC 细胞的凋亡,这通过 DNA 片段化和吉姆萨染色得到了证实。此外,它们在正常小鼠中没有产生任何继发性并发症或副作用。在阳光存在的情况下,MycoAuNPs 的光催化活性对 Rhodamine B 和 Methylene Blue 染料进行了测试,显示出潜在的染料降解能力。因此,本研究清楚地展示了生物合成的 MycoAuNPs 的多方面治疗和催化应用。
