Honokiol (HK) is a natural product isolated from the bark, cones, seeds and leaves of plants belonging to the genus Magnolia. It possesses anti‐cancer activity which can efficiently impede the growth and bring about apoptosis of a diversity of cancer cells. The major concerns of using HK are its poor solubility and lack of targeted drug delivery. In this study, a combinatorial drug is prepared by combining HK and camptothecin (CPT). Both CPT and HK belong to the Magnolian genus and induce apoptosis by cell cycle arrest at the S‐phase and G1 phase, respectively. The combinatorial drug thus synthesised was loaded onto a chitosan functionalised graphene oxide nanoparticles, predecorated with folic acid for site‐specific drug delivery. The CPT drug‐loaded nanocarrier was characterised by X‐ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, UV–vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy. The antioxidant properties, haemolytic activity and anti‐inflammatory activities were analysed. The cellular toxicity was analysed by 3‐(4,5‐Dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide (MTT assay) and Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay against breast cancer (MCF‐7) cell lines.Inspec keywords: nanofabrication, cancer, nanoparticles, atomic force microscopy, graphene, scanning electron microscopy, cellular biophysics, toxicology, transmission electron microscopy, drug delivery systems, nanomedicine, tumours, solubilityOther keywords: targeted drug delivery, combinatorial drug, Magnolian genus, apoptosis, cell cycle, chitosan functionalised graphene oxide nanoparticles, site‐specific drug delivery, CPT drug‐loaded nanocarrier, transmission electron microscope, fluorescence spectroscopy, haemolytic activity, antiinflammatory activities, breast cancer cell lines, honokiol–camptothecin loaded graphene oxide nanoparticle, combinatorial anti‐cancer drug delivery, natural product, genus Magnolia, anticancer activity, cancer cells 相似文献

Cancer is a major cause of death. Thus, the incidence and mortality rate of cancer is globally important. Regarding vast problems caused by chemotherapy drugs, efforts have progressed to find new anti‐cancer drugs. Pyrazole derivatives are known as components with anti‐cancer properties. In here, Fe3 O4 nanoparticles were first functionalized with (3‐chloropropyl) trimethoxysilane, then 2‐((pyrazol‐4‐yl) methylene) hydrazinecarbothioamide (P) was anchored on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles (PL). The synthesized nano‐compounds were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Zeta potential, dynamic light scattering, and energy‐dispersive x‐ray spectrometry analyses. The cytotoxicity effect was evaluated using MTT assay, apoptosis test by Flow cytometry, cell cycle analysis, Caspase‐3 activity assay and Hoechst staining on MCF‐7 cell line. The high toxicity for tumor cells and low toxicity on normal cells (MCF10A) was considered as an important feature (selectivity index, 10.9). Based on results, the IC50 for P and PL compounds were 157.80 and 131.84 μM/ml respectively. Moreover, apoptosis inducing, nuclear fragmentation, Caspase 3 activity and induction of cell rest in sub‐G1 and S phases, were also observed. The inhibitory effect of PL was significantly higher than P, which could be due to the high penetrability of Fe3 O4 nanoparticles.Inspec keywords: magnetic particles, drugs, nanomedicine, biochemistry, cancer, light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, molecular biophysics, iron compounds, electrokinetic effects, nanofabrication, tumours, X‐ray diffraction, cellular biophysics, nanoparticles, biomedical materials, toxicology, nanomagnetics, Fourier transform infrared spectra, enzymes, X‐ray chemical analysisOther keywords: anticancer properties, Fe3 O4 magnetic nanoparticles, (3‐chloropropyl) trimethoxysilane, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectrometry, cell cycle analysis, MCF‐7 cell line, tumour cells, human breast cancer MCF‐7 cells, mortality rate, pyrazole derivatives, 2‐((pyrazol‐4‐yl) methylene) hydrazinecarbothioamide, chemotherapy drugs, heterocyclic components, nanocompounds, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Zeta potential, dynamic light scattering, cytotoxicity effect, MTT assay, apoptosis test, caspase‐3 activity assay, Hoechst staining, MCF10A nontumourigenic cells, cell rest induction, nuclear fragmentation, Fe3 O4 相似文献

This study reports an eco‐friendly‐based method for the preparation of biopolymer Ag–Au nanoparticles (NPs) by using gum kondagogu (GK; Cochlospermum gossypium), as both reducing and protecting agent. The formation of GK‐(Ag–Au) NPs was confirmed by UV‐absorption, fourier transformed infrared (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The GK‐(Ag–Au) NPs were of 1–12 nm in size. The anti‐proliferative activity of nanoparticle constructs was assessed by MTT assay, confocal microscopy, flow cytometry and quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques. Expression studies revealed up‐regulation of p53, caspase‐3, caspase‐9, peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors (PPAR) PPARa and PPARb, genes and down‐regulation of Bcl‐2 and Bcl‐x(K) genes, in B16F10 cells treated with GK‐(Ag–Au) NPs confirming the anti‐proliferative properties of the nanoparticles.Inspec keywords: nanomedicine, transmission electron microscopy, genetics, cellular biophysics, molecular biophysics, enzymes, nanofabrication, gold, silver, scanning electron microscopy, nanoparticles, Fourier transform infrared spectra, atomic force microscopy, biomedical materialsOther keywords: size 1.0 nm to 12.0 nm, Ag‐Au, anti‐proliferative assessment, eco‐friendly‐based method, anti‐proliferative activity, anti‐proliferative properties, biopolymer‐based Ag–Au bimetallic nanoparticle, Cochlospermum gossypium, gum kondagogu, biopolymer preparation, biogenic synthesis, UV‐absorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, MTT assay, confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, caspase‐3, caspase‐9, peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors, Bcl‐2 gene, Bcl‐x(K) gene, B16F10 cells 相似文献

This is the first study to report the green synthesis of Lobelia trigona Roxb‐ mediated silver nanoparticles (LTAgNPs). The optical and structural properties of the synthesised LTAgNPs were analysed using ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, dynamic light scattering and energy dispersive X‐ray. LTAgNps were evaluated for their anti‐bacterial and anti‐fungal properties against 18 pathogens and exhibited significant inhibition against all the strains tested. LTAgNPs had potential scavenging effects on the DPPH, • OH, O2 •− free radical scavenging assays and reducing power assay. LTAgNps possess strong anti‐cancer activity against five human cancer cell lines (A549, MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐231, HeLa and KB) in a dose‐dependent manner. The antiproliferative, anti‐inflammatory and genotoxicity effects of LTAgNPs were further confirmed by the lactate dehydrogenase release assay, nitric oxide inhibitory assay and comet assay. Furthermore, the incision, excision and burn wound‐healing activity of formulated LTAgNPs ointment was assessed in rats. All the wounds had significant healing in groups treated with LTAgNPs ointment compared to the groups treated with the commonly prescribed ointment (SilverexTM). This study shows and suggests that the previously unreported LTAgNPs could be used as a nanomedicine with significant biological applications.Inspec keywords: molecular biophysics, biomedical materials, scanning electron microscopy, biochemistry, cancer, microorganisms, silver, cellular biophysics, nanofabrication, wounds, nanomedicine, ultraviolet spectra, toxicology, antibacterial activity, light scattering, nanoparticles, enzymes, visible spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectraOther keywords: Lobelia trigona Roxb‐based nanomedicine, biological applications, Lobelia trigona Roxb‐mediated silver nanoparticles, optical properties, structural properties, ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, antibacterial properties, antifungal properties, scavenging effects, free radical scavenging, power assay, anticancer activity, antiinflammatory effects, genotoxicity effects, lactate dehydrogenase release assay, nitric oxide inhibitory assay, excision, burn wound‐healing activity, formulated LTAgNPs ointment, in vivo approach, in vitro approach, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy dispersive X‐ray analysis, pathogens, strains, A549 human cancer cell lines, MCF‐7 human cancer cell lines, MDA‐MB‐231 human cancer cell lines, HeLa human cancer cell lines, antiproliferative effects, comet assay, Ag 相似文献

Breast cancer is the second cause of death in the world. Ionising radiation is a potent mutagen that can cause DNA damage, chromosomes breakage, and cell death. In the present study, radiotherapy and nanoparticle‐antibodies (ABs) have been combined to enhance the efficacy of cancer cell treatment. Silver nanoparticles (SNP) were synthesised, coated with anti‐HER2, and then characterised with different techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, and UV–Vis spectroscopy. SKBR3 cells were irradiated with cobalt‐60 in the presence of nanoparticle‐AB as the drug. Cell viability was measured using the diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, and the cellular status was assessed by Raman spectroscopy. Irradiation considerably decreased cell viability proportionate to the dose increase and post‐irradiation time. The surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy increased the signal in the presence of SNP. Increasing the dose to 2 Gy increased the irradiation resistance, and higher dose increases (4 and 6 Gy) enhanced the irradiation sensitivity. Moreover, the cellular changes induced by irradiation in the presence of the drug were stable after 48 h. The authors results introduced the combination of the drug with radiation as an effective treatment for cancer and Raman spectroscopy as a suitable tool to diagnose effective irradiation doses.Inspec keywords: ultraviolet spectra, X‐ray diffraction, tumours, nanofabrication, silver, cellular biophysics, nanomedicine, cancer, drugs, DNA, light scattering, toxicology, biomagnetism, radiation therapy, Raman spectra, transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectra, nanoparticles, gynaecologyOther keywords: higher dose increases, irradiation sensitivity, drug, effective treatment, effective irradiation doses, silver nanoparticles, irradiation efficiency, SKBR3 breast cancer cells, ionising radiation, potent mutagen, DNA damage, cell death, nanoparticle‐antibodies, cancer cell treatment, SNP, different techniques, X‐ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, UV–Vis spectroscopy, SKBR3 cells, nanoparticle‐AB, diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, cell viability proportionate, dose increase, post‐irradiation time, surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy, irradiation resistance, time 48.0 hour, size 60.0 inch, Ag 相似文献

The aim of this study was to green synthesised silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Centella asiatica leaf extract and investigate the cytotoxic and apoptosis‐inducing effects of these nanoparticles in MCF‐7 breast cancer cell line. The characteristics and morphology of the green synthesised AgNPs were evaluated using transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, UV–visible spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy. The MTT assay was used to investigate the anti‐proliferative activity of biosynthesised nanoparticles in MCF‐7 cells. Apoptosis test was performed using flow cytometry and expression of caspase 3 and 9 genes. The spherical AgNPs with an average size of 19.17 nm were synthesised. The results showed that biosynthesised AgNPs exhibited cytotoxicity, anti‐cancer, apoptosis induction, and increased expression of genes encoding for caspases 3 and 9 in MCF‐7 cancer cells in a concentration‐ and time‐dependent manner. It seems that green synthesised AgNPs have potential uses for pharmaceutical industries.Inspec keywords: ultraviolet spectra, transmission electron microscopy, cellular biophysics, infrared spectra, visible spectra, nanofabrication, cancer, toxicology, nanomedicine, nanoparticles, biomedical materials, scanning electron microscopy, silver, Fourier transform spectra, X‐ray diffraction, genetics, enzymes, botany, biochemistryOther keywords: spherical AgNPs, biosynthesised AgNPs, anti‐cancer, apoptosis induction, green synthesised AgNPs, MCF‐7 breast cancer cell line, green synthesised silver nanoparticles, Ag, caspase gene expression, flow cytometry, anti‐proliferative activity, MTT assay, pharmaceutical industries, cytotoxicity, UV–visible spectroscopy, nanoparticle morphology, scanning electron microscopy, Centella asiatica leaf extract, biosynthesised nanoparticles, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy 相似文献

Cancer is one of the leading causes of human death. Nanotechnology could offer new and optimised anticancer agents in order to fight cancer. It was shown that metal nanoparticles, in particular silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were effective in cancer therapy. In this study, AgNPs were synthesised using Rubia tinctorum L. extract (Ru‐AgNPs). Then, cytotoxicity effects of the Ru‐AgNPs against MDA‐MB‐231 carcinoma cell line and human dermal fibroblast as normal cell line were performed. Furthermore, anti‐apoptotic effects of Ru‐AgNPs on these cancer and normal cell lines were compared using acridine orange/propidium iodide staining, flow cytometry analysis and real‐time qPCR in apoptosis gene markers. Results of UV‐vis spectroscopy showed that Ru‐AgNPs have a peak at 430 nm, which indicated synthesis of AgNPs. Ru‐AgNPs had spherical shape and average size of 12 nm. Ru‐AgNPs have cytotoxicity on MDA‐MB‐231 cells and decrease cancerous cell viability (IC50 = 4 µg/ml/48 h). Ru‐AgNPs could induce apoptosis in MDA‐MB‐231 cells through upregulation of Bax and downregulation of Bcl‐2 gene expression. The results opened up new avenues to develop Rubia based metal complexes as an anticancer agent.Inspec keywords: cellular biophysics, genetics, cancer, toxicology, nanoparticles, nanofabrication, nanomedicine, silver, biomedical materials, ultraviolet spectra, visible spectraOther keywords: Ru‐AgNPs, MDA‐MB‐231 carcinoma cell line, normal cell line, cancerous cell viability, in vitro anticancer properties, green synthesis, silver nanoparticles, Rubia tinctorum L. extract, cytotoxicity effects, human dermal fibroblast HFF, antiapoptotic effects, acridine orange‐propidium iodide staining, flow cytometry analysis, real‐time qPCR, apoptosis gene markers, UV‐visible spectroscopy, spherical shape, Bcl‐2 gene expression, Ag 相似文献

In this study, the authors report a simple and eco‐friendly method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Trigonella foenum‐graecum (TFG) seed extract. They explored several parameters dictating the biosynthesis of TFG‐AgNPs such as reaction time, temperature, concentration of AgNO3, and TFG extract amount. Physicochemical characterisation of TFG‐AgNPs was done on dynamic light scattering (DLS), field emission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The size determination studies using DLS revealed of TFG‐AgNPs size between 95 and 110 nm. The antibacterial activity was studied against Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.

A facile and green synthesis of platinum nanoparticles [gum kondagogu platinum nanoparticles (GKPtNP)] using biopolymer‐ gum kondagogu was developed. The formation of GKPtNP was confirmed by ultraviolet (UV)–visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, Zeta potential, Fourier transform infrared, inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy. The formed GKPtNP are well dispersed, homogeneous with a size of 2–4 ± 0.50 nm, having a negative zeta potential (−46.1 mV) indicating good stability. 5‐Fluorouracil (5FU) was loaded onto the synthesised GKPtNP, which leads to the development of a new combination of nanomedicine (5FU–GKPtNP). The in vitro drug release studies of 5FU–GKPtNP in pH 7.4 showed a sustained release profile over a period of 120 min. Agrobacterium tumefaciens induced in vitro potato tumour bioassay was employed for screening the anti‐tumour potentials of GKPtNP, 5FU, and 5FU–GKPtNP. The experimental results suggested a complete tumour inhibition by 5FU–GKPtNP at a lower concentration than the GKPtNP and 5FU. Furthermore, the mechanism of anti‐tumour activity was assessed by their interactions with DNA using agarose gel electrophoresis and UV‐spectroscopic analysis. The electrophoresis results revealed that the 5FU–GKPtNP totally diminishes DNA and the UV‐spectroscopic analysis showed a hyperchromic effect with red shift indicating intercalation type of binding with DNA. Over all, the present study revealed that the combined exposure of the nanoformulation resulted in the enhanced anti‐tumour effect.

Bio‐fabrication of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has several advantages like biocompatibility, less toxicity, and eco‐friendly in nature over their chemical and physical methods. Currently, the authors fabricated AuNPs using aqueous root extract of Momordica dioica (M. dioica) and explored their anticancer application with mechanistic approaches. Different biophysical techniques such as UV–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared, X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, and dynamic light scattering were employed for AuNPs characterisation. The synthesised AuNPs were mono‐dispersed, crystalline in nature, anionic surface (−23.9 mV), and spherical particle of an average diameter of 9.4 nm. In addition, the AuNPs were stable in buffers solutions and also biocompatible towards normal human cells (human vascular endothelial cells and human lung cells). The AuNPs were exhibited anticancer activity against different cancer cell lines such as human breast cancer cells, human cervical cancer cells (HeLa) and human lung cancer cells. Further, the pro‐apoptotic genes such as Bcl2 were down‐regulated and BAX, Caspase‐3, −8, and −9 were up‐regulated in HeLa cells as compared to untreated cells. Annexin‐V‐FITC assay results showed that the AuNPs were induced apoptosis by accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species. To their knowledge, this is the first report on the synthesis of bioactive metal nanoparticles from M. dioica and it may open up new avenues in therapeutic applications.Inspec keywords: nanomedicine, tumours, lung, visible spectra, drug delivery systems, cancer, transmission electron microscopy, biomedical materials, molecular biophysics, light scattering, toxicology, electron diffraction, X‐ray diffraction, ultraviolet spectra, biomembranes, drugs, gold, biochemistry, particle size, cellular biophysics, nanoparticles, nanofabrication, Fourier transform infrared spectraOther keywords: extrinsic apoptosis, intrinsic apoptosis, mediated gold nanoparticles, biofabrication, physical methods, biophysical techniques, UV‐visible spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, AuNPs characterisation, normal human cells, human vascular endothelial cells, cancer cell lines, human breast cancer cells, human cervical cancer cells, human lung cancer cells, HeLa cells, untreated cells, bioactive metal nanoparticles, Momordica dioica mediated gold nanoparticles, Fourier transform infrared spectra, proapoptotic genes, Bcl2 , BAX, Caspase‐3, Caspase‐9, Caspase‐8, Annexin‐V‐FITC assay, intracellular reactive oxygen species, therapeutic applications, voltage ‐23.9 mV, size 9.4 nm, Au 相似文献

A simple ultrasonic assisted chemical technique was used to synthesise cadmium oxide (CdO) nanoparticles (NPs) and CdO NPs/c‐Multiwalled carbon nanotube (c‐MWCNT) nanocomposite fibres.To confirm the physio‐chemico properties and to analyse surface morphology of the obtained nanomaterials X‐Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were performed. To evaluate the anti‐cancer property of CdO NPs, c‐MWCNT NPs and CdO NPs/c‐MWCNT nanocomposite fibres, an anti‐proliferative assay test (Methylthiazolyl diphenyl‐ tetrazolium bromide ‐ MTT assay) were performed on HeLa cells which further estimated IC50 value (Least concentration of sample in which nearly 50% of cells remain alive) under in‐vitro conditions. On comparison, CdONPs/c‐MWCNT based system was found to be superior by achieving 52.3% cell viability with its minimal IC50 value of 31.2 μg/ml. Lastly, the CdO NPs based system was taken up for an apoptotic study using DNA fragmentation assay for estimating its ability to cleave the DNA of the HeLa cells into internucleosomal fragments using the agarose gel electrophoresis method.

In this examination, we researched the advantages of DNA fragmentation and metallic nanoparticles well‐appointed with biomolecules. A novel interpretation of DNA damage by Silver Nano‐Clusters (AgNCs) which were developed by the utilization of green synthesis method was demonstrated. The green synthesis of AgNCs was accomplished by utilizing the leaf extract of Salacia mulbarica (SM). The preparation of SM‐AgNCs was developed by estimating surface plasmon resonance peak around 449 nm by using a UV–Visible spectrophotometer. The effect of phytochemicals in SM leaf extract on the development of stable SM‐AgNCs was confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy. The size of the fabricated SM‐AgNCs was estimated by dynamic light scattering and zeta‐sizer analysis and the morphology of the SM‐AgNCs was examined by transmission electron microscopy. The presence of clusters of Ag particles in the prepared SM‐AgNCs was recognized by energy dispersion X‐ray analysis. The results show that saponins, phytosterols, and phenolic compounds present in plant extract may play a great part in developing the SM‐AgNCs in their specialized particles.

The focus of this study is on a rapid and cost‐effective approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Artemisia quttensis Podlech aerial parts extract and assessment of their antioxidant, antibacterial and anticancer activities. The prepared AgNPs were determined by ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, Fourier transform infra‐red spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering and zeta‐potential analysis. The AgNPs and A. quttensis extract were evaluated for their antiradical scavenging activity by 2, 2‐diphenyl, 1‐picryl hydrazyl assay and anticancer activity against colon cancer (human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line 29) compared with normal human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells. Also, the prepared AgNPs were studied for its antibacterial activity. The AgNPs revealed a higher antioxidant activity compared with A. quttensis extract alone. The phyto‐synthesised AgNPs and A. quttensis extract showed a dose–response cytotoxicity effect against HT29 and HEK293 cells. As evidenced by Annexin V/propidium iodide staining, the number of apoptotic HT29 cells was significantly enhanced, following treatment with AgNPs as compared with untreated cells. Besides, the antibacterial property of the AgNPs indicated a significant effect against the selected pathogenic bacteria.

An environmentally friendly and rapid procedure was developed to synthesise silver nanoparticles (Ag‐NPs) by Chamaemelum nobile extract and to evaluate its in vivo anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant activities. The ultraviolet–visible absorption spectrum of the synthesised Ag‐NPs showed an absorbance peak at 422. The average size of spherical nanoparticles was 24 nm as revealed by transmission electron microscopy. Fourier transform infra‐red spectroscopy analysis supported the presence of biological active compounds involved in the reduction of Ag ion and X‐ray diffraction confirmed the crystalline structure of the metallic Ag. The anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant activity of the Ag‐NPs was investigated against carrageenan‐induced paw oedema in mice. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and inflammatory cytokines tumour necrosis factor (TNF‐α), interferon gamma and interleukin (IL)‐6, IL‐1β were assessed in this respect. The results demonstrated that anti‐inflammatory activity of the Ag‐NPs might be due to the ability of the nanoparticles to reduce IL‐1β, IL‐6 and TNF‐α. Moreover, reduction of antioxidant enzymes along with an increase in MDA level shows that the anti‐inflammatory activity of the synthesised Ag‐NPs by C. nobile is attributed to its ameliorating effect on the oxidative damage.Inspec keywords: silver, nanoparticles, nanofabrication, ultraviolet spectra, visible spectra, particle size, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra, X‐ray diffraction, crystal structure, enzymes, molecular biophysics, tumours, biomedical materials, nanomedicineOther keywords: Chamaemelum nobile extract, oxidative stress, mice paw, silver nanoparticles, antiinflammatory activity, antioxidant activity, ultraviolet‐visible absorption spectrum, spherical nanoparticle size, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, biological active compounds, X‐ray diffraction, crystalline structure, carrageenan‐induced paw oedema, malondialdehyde, antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, inflammatory cytokines, tumour necrosis factor, interferon gamma, interleukin, IL‐1β, IL‐6, TNF‐α, MDA level, Ag 相似文献

The current investigation involves the green synthesis of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) from an aqueous plant extract of Moringa oleifera Lam by two methods: (I) time‐based approach and (II) heat treatment of aqueous solution. Prepared CuNPs were characterised via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission EM. The study also reveals the potential bioactivity of the prepared CuNPs. In vitro anti‐microbial efficiency of CuNPs was estimated against bacterial and fungal strains by the agar well diffusion method. Anti‐oxidant capacity of CuNPs was determined using ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP), lipid peroxidation (LPO) and peroxidase assays, while the antiplatelet potential was determined by measuring two haemostatic parameters (PT & APTT assay). The minimum inhibitory concentration was observed at 60 µg/ml against Streptomyces griseus and Aspergillus niger when NPs were prepared by method II. CuNPs prepared by the method I showed higher FRAP and LPO activities, while increased POX activity was found in CuNPs prepared by method II. CuNPs prepared using method I also showed better anti‐oxidant and antiplatelet potential. It was observed that M. oleifera ‐derived CuNPs exhibits strong anti‐microbial, anti‐oxidant and APTT potential. This indicates potential utilization of green synthesized NPs for various industrial and therapeutic strategies.Inspec keywords: nanofabrication, nanoparticles, copper, biomedical materials, nanomedicine, heat treatment, Fourier transform infrared spectra, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, antibacterial activity, microorganisms, cellular biophysics, enzymes, biochemistry, molecular biophysicsOther keywords: green synthesis, copper nanoparticles, aqueous plant, Moringa oleifera Lam, time‐based approach, heat treatment, aqueous solution, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission EM, potential bioactivity, in vitro antimicrobial efficiency, fungal strains, bacterial strains, agar well diffusion method, ferric reducing ability of plasma, lipid peroxidation, peroxidase assays, haemostatic parameters, Streptomyces griseus, Aspergillus niger, APTT activity, therapeutic strategies, industrial strategies, Cu 相似文献

The biological method for synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Bacopa monneri leaves and its anti‐proliferation against human lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549) was studied. The AgNPs synthesis was determined by an ultraviolet–visible spectrum and was confirmed primarily by the colour change and surface plasmon resonance was observed at 450 nm and its reduction of functional groups stretched in AgNPs was identified by Fourier transform infrared and the crystalline nature of AgNPs was confirmed by X‐ray diffraction. The structural morphology of the AgNPs was found to be spherical and polygonal shape and size (> 35 nm) were determined by field emission scanning electron microscopy analysis and its purity was identified by energy dispersive analysis of X‐rays (EDAX). A further, antibacterial activity of biosynthesised AgNPs against Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria was assessed. The cytotoxic effect of synthesised AgNPs was analysed against human lung adenocarcinoma cells by 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay.

Selenium (Se) is a rare and essential element for the human body and other living organisms because of its role in the structure of several proteins and having anti‐oxidant properties to reduce oxidative stress at cells. Some microorganisms can absorb Se oxyanions and convert them into zero‐valent Se (Se0) in the nanoscale dimensions, which can be used for producing Se nanoparticles (SeNPs). In the present study, SeNPs were intracellularly biosynthesised by yeast Nematospora coryli, which is an inexpensive method and does not involve using materials hazardous for human and environment. The produced NPs were refined by a two‐phase system and then characterised and identified by ultraviolet–visible, X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray fluorescence, transmission electron microscope, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses. The structural analysis of biosynthesised SeNPs showed spherical‐shaped NPs with size ranging from 50 to 250 nm. Also, extracted NPs were applied to explore their anti‐candida and anti‐oxidant activities. The results of this investigation confirm the biological properties of Se.Inspec keywords: X‐ray diffraction, microorganisms, oxidation, transmission electron microscopy, reduction (chemical), nanomedicine, biomedical materials, visible spectra, nanoparticles, proteins, nanofabrication, selenium, ultraviolet spectra, particle size, Fourier transform infrared spectra, antibacterial activityOther keywords: proteins, oxidative stress, Se oxyanions, yeast, biosynthesised SeNPs, anti‐oxidant activities, human body, living organisms, Se nanoparticles, Nematospora coryli, anti‐candida activities, biosynthesis, ultraviolet–visible analysis, X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray fluorescence, transmission electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, structural analysis, size 50.0 nm to 250.0 nm, Se 相似文献

This study aimed to develop sorafenib loaded magnetic microspheres for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. To achieve this goal, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) were synthesised and encapsulated in alginate microspheres together with an antineoplastic agent, sorafenib. In the study, firstly SPIONs were synthesised and characterised by dynamic light scattering, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Then, alginate‐SPIONs microspheres were developed, and further characterised by electron spin resonance spectrometer and vibrating sample magnetometer. Besides the magnetic properties of SPIONs, alginate microspheres with SPIONs were also found to have magnetic properties. The potential use of microspheres in hyperthermia treatment was then investigated and an increase of about 4°C in the environment was found out. Drug release studies and cytotoxicity tests were performed after sorafenib was encapsulated into the magnetic microspheres. According to release studies, sorafenib has been released from microspheres for 8 h. Cytotoxicity tests showed that alginate‐SPION‐sorafenib microspheres were highly effective against cancerous cells and promising for cancer therapy.Inspec keywords: drug delivery systems, drugs, nanofabrication, magnetic particles, iron compounds, scanning electron microscopy, hyperthermia, biomedical materials, encapsulation, nanoparticles, light scattering, nanomagnetics, cellular biophysics, toxicology, cancer, nanomedicine, superparamagnetism, nanocomposites, magnetometry, paramagnetic resonance, X‐ray chemical analysisOther keywords: sorafenib loaded alginate microspheres, hepatocellular carcinoma treatment, sorafenib loaded magnetic microspheres, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, dynamic light scattering, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, electron spin resonance spectrometer, vibrating sample magnetometer, hyperthermia treatment, drug release, alginate‐SPION‐sorafenib microspheres, antineoplastic agent, cytotoxicity tests, cancerous cells, time 8.0 hour, Fe3 O4 相似文献

Biogenic synthesis of gold (Au), silver (Ag) and bimetallic alloy Au–Ag nanoparticles (NPs) from aqueous solutions using Cannabis sativa as reducing and stabilising agent has been presented in this report. Formation of NPs was monitored using UV–visible spectroscopy. Morphology of the synthesised metallic and bimetallic NPs was investigated using X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Elemental composition and the surface chemical state of NPs were confirmed by energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy analysis. Fourier transform‐infrared spectroscopy was utilised to identify the possible biomolecules responsible for the reduction and stabilisation of the NPs. Biological applicability of biosynthesised NPs was tested against five bacterial strains namely Klebsiella pneumonia, Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis), Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and Leishmania major promastigotes. The results showed considerable antibacterial and anti‐leishmanial activity. The Au–Ag bimetallic NPs showed improved antibacterial activity against B. subtilis and P. aeruginosa as compared to Au and Ag alone, while maximum anti‐leishmanial activity was observed at 250 μg ml−1 NP concentration. These results suggest that biosynthesised NPs can be used as potent antibiotic and anti‐leishmanial agents.Inspec keywords: silver, silver alloys, gold, gold alloys, nanoparticles, nanofabrication, reduction (chemical), ultraviolet spectra, visible spectra, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray chemical analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectra, microorganisms, antibacterial activityOther keywords: biogenic synthesis, Cannabis sativa leaf extract, bimetallic alloy Au–Ag nanoparticles, aqueous solutions, reducing agent, stabilising agent, UV–visible spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, elemental composition, surface chemical state, energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy analysis, Fourier transform‐infrared spectroscopy, biomolecules, bacterial strains, Klebsiella pneumonia, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Leishmania major promastigotes, antibacterial activity, anti‐leishmanial activity, Ag, Au, AuAg 相似文献

Drug delivery is one of the most important challenges in the domain of health. Non‐toxic and biocompatible carriers are provided by human serum albumin nano‐capsule (HSA/NC) for drug delivery applications. In this study, HSA, with high loadings of drug‐modified cobalt ferrite (CoFe2 O4) magnetic nanoparticle (CoFe2 O4 /MNPs) was fabricated for epirubicin anticancer drug delivery. In the initial step, CoFe2 O4 /MNPs was synthesised via co‐precipitation technique and characterised by X‐ray powder diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometry, energy dispersive X‐ray analysis, scanning electron microscopy and map analysis. Furthermore, CoFe2 O4 /MNPs and epirubicin were loaded into HSA/NC and utilised as a novel system against breast cancer cell line (MCF‐7). IC50 for free epirubicin, unloaded CoFe2 O4 /MNPs/HSA/NC, CoFe2 O4 /MNPs and epirubicin‐loaded CoFe2 O4 /MNPs/HSA/NC were 7.7, 2400, 840 and 430 μg/ml, respectively. The results obtained revealed high cytotoxicity effect of epirubicin‐loaded CoFe2 O4 /MNPs on breast cancer cell line.Inspec keywords: drug delivery systems, biomedical materials, nanoparticles, cobalt compounds, ferrites, nanomedicine, proteins, molecular biophysics, drugs, magnetic particles, nanomagnetics, nanofabrication, precipitation (physical chemistry), X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray chemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, cancer, cellular biophysics, toxicology, magnetic hysteresisOther keywords: HSA, high‐efficiency carrier, epirubicin anticancer drug delivery, human serum albumin nanocapsule, drug‐modified cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticle, coprecipitation technique, X‐ray powder diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometry, energy dispersive X‐ray analysis, scanning electron microscopy, map analysis, breast cancer cell line, cytotoxicity effect, CoFe2 O4 相似文献
