Iron(III)-Tannic Molecular Nanoparticles Enhance Autophagy effect and T1 MRI Contrast in Liver Cell Lines

Abstract: Herein, a new molecular nanoparticle based on iron(III)-tannic complexes (Fe–TA NPs) is presented. The Fe–TA NPs were simply obtained by mixing the precursors in a buffered solution at room temperature, and they exhibited good physicochemical properties with capability of inducing autophagy in both hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2.2.15) and normal rat hepatocytes (AML12). The Fe–TA NPs were found to induce HepG2.2.15 cell death via autophagic cell death but have no effect on cell viability in AML12 cells.… Show more

“…PBS buffer (pH 7.4) was chosen as the reaction medium because this condition is suitable to form nanosized Fe-TA complexes with predominantly Tris-coordinated structure that are more stable structures. 16 Schematic illustration for Fe-TA NPs preparation and typical characteristics of Fe-TA NPs are shown in Fig. S1.…”

“…HepG2 human liver cancer cells, MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, and A549 human lung cancer cells treated with PGG increased the LC3-II level, a sign of autophagy [81]. A new molecular nanoparticle based on iron(III)-tannic complexes (Fe-TA NPs) induced autophagic cell death in HepG2 cells via upregulation of LC3 mRNA expression and autophagosome formation [83]. Autophagic responses were observed in human DU145 and PC-3 prostate cancer xenografts in nude mice detected by the formation of autophagosomes.…”
