Chemo-radiation therapy of U87-MG glioblastoma cells using SPIOAuNP-Cisplatin-Alginate nanocomplex
© 2023 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd..
Megavoltage radiotherapy and cisplatin-based chemotherapy are the primary glioblastoma treatments. Novel nanoparticles have been designed to reduce adverse effects and boost therapeutic effectiveness. In the present study, we synthesized the SPIOAuNP-Cisplatin-Alginate (SACA) nanocomplex, composed of a SPIO core, a gold shell, and an alginate coating. SACA was characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). U87-MG human glioblastoma cells and the HGF cell line (a healthy primary gingival fibroblast) were treated in multiple groups by a combination of SACA, cisplatin, and 6 MV X-ray. The MTT assay was used to assess the cytotoxicity of cisplatin and SACA (at various concentrations and for 4 h). Following the treatments, apoptosis and cell viability were evaluated in each treatment group using flow cytometry and the MTT assay, respectively. The findings demonstrated that the combination of SACA and 6 MV X-rays (at the doses of 2 and 4 Gy) drastically decreased the viability of U87MG cells, whereas the viability of HGF cells remained unchanged. Moreover, U87MG cells treated with SACA in combination with radiation exhibited a significant increase in apoptosis, demonstrating that this nanocomplex effectively boosted the radiosensitivity of cancer cells. Even though additional in vivo studies are needed, these findings suggest that SACA might be used as a radiosensitizer nanoparticle in the therapy of brain tumors.
