Evaluation of the Cytotoxic Activity and Anti-Migratory Effect of Berberine–Phytantriol Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticle Formulation on Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer In Vitro

Abstract: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common form of lung cancer, which is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Berberine is an isoquinoline alkaloid that is commercially available for use as a supplement for the treatment of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. However, the therapeutic benefits of berberine are limited by its extremely low bioavailability and toxicity at higher doses. Increasing evidence suggests that the incorporation of drug compounds in liquid crystal nanoparticles… Show more

“…The cell viability of BCiNS1.1 cells was assessed using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT, Merck, Rahway, NJ, USA), as described previously [ 69 ]. The cells were treated with different concentrations of agarwood-NE (10–1000 µg/mL) for 24 h in a 96-well plate.…”

“…Subsequently, PBS was used to wash the cells (2X), and were lysed using the TRI reagent (Merck). The next step involved the total isolation of RNA [ 39 ]. The purity and the concentration of RNA were measured by Nanodrop One (Thermo Fisher Scientific, North Ryde, NSW, Australia).…”

“…These systems mainly consist of targeting ligand, a carrier system, and bioactive moiety [ 3 ]. Many nanomodules and newer fascinating devices, namely: liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, dendrimers or lipidic nanoparticles, polymer–lipid hybrid nanoparticles (PLNs), micelles, carbon nanotubes, and nanotubes have been crafted for enhancing the transport of therapeutic cargo to treat the tumor cells [ 4 , 5 , 6 ]. These nanoparticles have been used for drug administration by combining the advantages of polymeric core particles, liposomes, and polymer–lipid–PEG hybrids [ 7 ].…”
