Comparing the Effects of Intracellular and Extracellular Magnetic Hyperthermia on the Viability of BxPC-3 Cells
(2020)Magnetic hyperthermia involves the use of iron oxide nanoparticles to generate heat in tumours following stimulation with alternating magnetic fields. In recent times, this treatment has undergone numerous clinical trials ... -
Development of EphA2 siRNA-loaded lipid nanoparticles and combination with a small-molecule histone demethylase inhibitor in prostate cancer cells and tumor spheroids.
(2021)Background siRNAs hold a great potential for cancer therapy, however, poor stability in body fluids and low cellular uptake limit their use in the clinic. To enhance the bioavailability of siRNAs in tumors, novel, safe, ... -
Development of SIRT1 siRNA-carrying liposomes for treatment of prostate cancer
(2020)Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) from Sirtuin family and high expression of it induces activation of DNA repairing factors eventually leading either tumor suppression or tumor development in cellular ... -
Differential stress reaction of human colon cells to oleic-acid-stabilized and unstabilized ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles
(2014)Therapeutic engineered nanoparticles (NPs), including ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) NPs, may accumulate in the lower digestive tract following ingestion or injection. In order to evaluate the reaction of ... -
Evaluation of the effect of solid and cationic lipids on siRNA delivery systems
(2020)This study aims to develop nanoparticles with different types of solid and cationic lipids and evaluate them as siRNA delivery systems. For this purpose, we prepared a series of lipid nanoparticles by combining cationic ... -
Nanotoxicity in cancer research: technical protocols and tips considerations for the use of 3D tumour spheroids
(InTech, 2018)The poor clinical translation of oncological nanomedicine products is one of the greatest challenges faced by research today. The use of reductionist in vitro models of human cancer and non-predictive animal models is ... -
Proinflammatory Effects of Pyrogenic and Precipitated Amorphous Silica Nanoparticles in Innate Immunity Cells.
(2016)Amorphous silica nanoparticles (ASNP) can be synthetized via several processes, 2 of which are the thermal route (to yield pyrogenic silica) and the wet route from a solution containing silicate salts (to obtain precipitated, ... -
A promising approach to develop nanostructured lipid carriers from solid lipid nanoparticles: preparation, characterization, cytotoxicity and nucleic acid binding ability
(2020)We aimed to develop nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) displaying similar characteristics – particle size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential – with the model solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) for better comparability. ... -
Targeted polyethylene glycol gold nanoparticles for the treatment of pancreatic cancer: from synthesis to proof-of-concept in vitro studies.
(2016)Abstract: The main objective of this study was to optimize and characterize a drug delivery carrier for doxorubicin, intended to be intravenously administered, capable of improving the therapeutic index of the chemotherapeutic ... -
Treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Infected Macrophages with Poly(Lactic-Co-Glycolic Acid) Microparticles Drives NF?B and Autophagy Dependent Bacillary Killing
(2016)The emergence of multiple-drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) has pushed our available repertoire of anti-TB therapies to the limit of effectiveness. This has increased the urgency to develop novel treatment modalities, ...
