In vitro cytotoxicity of GO–DOx on FaDu squamous carcinoma cell lines

Abstract: We have synthesized graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets using modified Hummer’s method and conjugated it with doxorubicin (DOx), an anticancer drug. Drug release kinetics from GO–DOx conjugate indicated the drug release at acidic pH. MTT assay performed on FaDu hypopharyngeal cancer cell lines revealed that the GO–DOx nanoconjugate inhibited cell proliferation more efficiently compared with pure DOx. Preliminary results indicate the potential of designed GO–DOx drug conjugate for head and neck cancer.

“…Both cell lines showed distinct size and morphology alteration compared to the untreated control. Cellular shrinkage and proliferation inhibition were observed in CAG treatment groups, which increased with higher CAG concentration, suggesting a dose-dependent trend [121, 122]. Furthermore, morphological changes were studied with starting raw material GO, and traditional citrate-synthesized nanocomposite rGO-AuNPs, as a comparative approach (S2 Fig).…”

“…Consequently, GO-DOX would then be able to enter the tumor tissue through the ruptured blood vessels. In an acidic environment, which is present in tumor cells, DOX is released from GO [65] and enters the cell nucleus to promote apoptosis [73]. This method helps GO-DOX penetrate the tumor vascular barrier and enter the tumor tissue.…”

“…此 外, 有机小分子化合物还可以通过非共价键作用对 GO 进行表面修饰, 如静电力、范德华力、氢键和π-π堆积作 用等 [15] . 通过π-π堆积作用, 可以将具有芳香环结构的 抗癌药物修饰到 GO 表面(图 3), 如阿霉素(DOX) [64,65] 和 喜树碱(CPT) [66,67] , 进而将药物递送到肿瘤细胞与组 织 [68] . 例如, 利用 π-π 堆积和疏水作用将 DOX 装载到转 铁蛋白(Tf)与 PEG 修饰的 GO (Tf-PEG-GO)表面, 装载 效率可达 115.4%, 对大鼠 C6 神经胶质瘤具有良好的靶 向治疗效果 [69] .…”
