This report developed a novel method to observe the anti-tumor effect of HA nanoparticle carrier-mediated HepG2 cell vaccine transfected with hGM-CSF gene in vitro, and provide evidence for the clinical application of hGM-CSF gene-modified HepG2 cell vaccine. HA nanoparticle-mediated hGM-CSF gene transfection of HepG2 cells was used to prepare HepG2 cell vaccine transfected with GMCSF gene. Human PBMC were isolated by density gradient centrifugation and human PBMC were induced in vitro. The proliferative activity of PBMC and the killing effect on HepG2 cells were determined by WST-1 method. The positive expression rates of CD4+ and CD8+ were analyzed by flow cytometry, and the secretion of INF-γ was determined by ELISA. WST-1 results showed that the transgenic HepG2 vaccine induced PBMC proliferation, and its proliferation rate was better than that of wild-type vaccine. The induced PBMC had a higher killing rate against HepG2 than the wild-type vaccine group and each blank. In the control group, FCM results showed that the positive expression rates of CD4+ and CD8+ in the transgenic HepG2 vaccine group were higher than those in the wild-type vaccine group and each blank control group. The ELISA results showed that the IFN-γ content in the transgenic PBMC culture supernatant was 1989.76. +/-254.21 pg/ml, higher than the wild-type vaccine group and each blank control group.
The preparation process of artesunate-loaded polyethylene glycol monomethyl etherpolylactic acid-glycolic acid affinity block copolymer (mPEG-PLGA) nanoparticles and its growth inhibition on human leukemia K562 cells were investigated. METHODS: Artesunate mPEG-PLGA nanoparticles (Art-Nps) were prepared by modified selfemulsification method. The morphology of nanoparticles was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The particle size distribution and zeta potential were measured by laser scattering particle size analyzer. The drug loading, encapsulation efficiency and in vitro release of Art-Nps were determined by chromatography. The proliferation and apoptosis of human leukemia K562 cells were observed by MTT assay and Hoechst staining. RESULTS: Art-Nps is a spherical solid particle with smooth surface, average particle size (156.70+/-1.01) nm, zeta potential of -(26.23+/-1.86) mV, average drug loading (14.51+/-0.20)%, average package. The sealing rate was (86.51+/-0.50)%, and the in vitro release law accorded with the Higuchi equation: Q=4.11t 1/2+27.05, R2=0.98. MTT assay showed that Art-Nps inhibited the proliferation of K562 cells in a time-dose-dependent manner, and the inhibition rate exceeded the artesunate-treated group after 72h, and sustained release. The number of cells was observed after cultured with different concentrations of Art-Nps for 48h. Significantly reduced, cell size is different, irregular shape, high magnification can be seen in the nucleus pyknosis, agglutination, and apoptotic bodies, and increased apoptotic bodies with increasing concentration.
The biodegradable and biodegradable natural polysaccharide has always been used as a drug delivery system, and has the following advantages: It can prolong the biological half life of the drug and reduce the side effects of the drug. This experiment aimed to prepare a 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) nanoparticle (P-5-FU) drug-loading system based on pectin, and explored a large number of pectin-based nano drug-loading systems. The galactose residue is a natural target that targets human hepatoma cell HepG2. MTT assay was used to determine the proliferation inhibition effect of drug-loaded pectinbased nanoparticles on HepG2 and A549 cells. MTT assay showed that P-5-FU inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and the effect was stronger than 5-FU. P-5-FU also inhibited the proliferation of A549 cells in a dosedependent manner, but there was no significant difference compared with 5-FU. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on two kinds of cells loaded with drugloaded nanoparticles the uptake and targeting were measured. The results of cell uptake showed that the uptake of P-5-FU by HepG2 cells was significantly higher than that of 5-FU, but there was no significant difference in the uptake of P-5-FU and 5-FU by A549 cells. There was no significant difference in the uptake of P-5-FU and 5-FU between the two cells after the galactose-saturated ASGPR binding site. The results indicate that pectin-based nano drug-loaded particles can specifically target highly expressed cells.
This report demonstrates a novel strategy to prepare fluorouracil polylactide glycolidepolyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (PLGA-mPEG) nanoparticles and study their in vitro release characteristics. Fluorouracil PLGA-mPEG nanoparticles were prepared by nanoprecipitation method. The encapsulation efficiency was determined by high performance liquid chromatography. Based on the single factor experiment, the prescription and preparation process were optimized by orthogonal experiments. The in vitro release characteristics of nanoparticles were studied by dynamic membrane dialysis. Results The prepared nanoparticles were relatively uniform spheroidal particles with an average particle size of about 124. 3 nm, a Zeta potential of -20. 6 mV, and an average encapsulation efficiency of (44.72 ± 0.38%). In vitro drug release experiments showed that the particle burst release was less than 30% at 2 h, and the drug was slowly released within 48 h after burst release.
