To investigate the toxicity of combretastatin A4 phosphate (CA4P) hyaluronic acid (HA) gel nanoparticles (HA-CA4P-NPs) in OSCC (oral squamous cell carcinoma).
Toxicity was investigated using fluorescence microscopy, MTT assay, flow cytometry, and OSCC xenograft mouse models.
Compared with CA4P, HA-CA4P-NPs generated nearly 10 times more fluorescence in OSCC cells. Cytotoxicity assays showed that HACA4P-NPs were more toxic to SCC-4 cells but not to HNECs. Remarkable necrosis was induced in SCC-4 cells after exposure to HA-CA4P-NPs, and related proteins were upregulated. Furthermore, HA-CA4P-NPs significantly reduced the tumour size.
HA-CA4P-NPs improved drug release and delivery, and increased cytotoxicity to cancer cells.
研究磷酸考布他汀A4(CA4P)透明质酸(HA)凝胶纳米颗粒(HA-CA4P-NPs)对口腔鳞状细胞癌(OSCC)的毒性。
使用荧光显微镜、MTT法、流式细胞术和OSCC异种移植小鼠模型研究毒性。
与CA4P相比,HA-CA4P-NPs在OSCC细胞中产生的荧光几乎多10倍。细胞毒性试验表明,HA-CA4P-NPs对SCC-4细胞毒性更大,但对人正常口腔角质形成细胞(HNECs)无毒性。暴露于HA-CA4P-NPs后,SCC-4细胞中出现明显坏死,相关蛋白上调。此外,HA-CA4P-NPs显著减小了肿瘤大小。
HA-CA4P-NPs改善了药物释放和递送,并增加了对癌细胞的细胞毒性。
