Abstract Ocotea fasciculata presents yangambin (YAN) and its isomer epi-yangambin (EPI-YAN) as major lignans, which are employed as the plant markers for quality control purposes and as potential pharmacological compounds. However, a gap between the pure isomers and safety and efficacy protocols is faced by the scientific community. In this context, this work aimed to report (i) a new and advantageous purifying process in a semi-preparative scale for YAN and EPI-YAN isolation from Ocotea fasciculata, and (ii) an in vitro cytotoxicity study to estimate, for the first time, the LD50 values of the isolated epimers, as well as the influence of albumin concentration in cell culture medium. The best condition for epimers isolation was achieved in normal-phase liquid chromatography. The lignan fraction (LF), previously obtained from the plant ethanolic extract, was purified yielding 17% and 29% of YAN and EPI-YAN, respectively. The in vitro study demonstrated that YAN and EPI-YAN were safe, and only at the highest concentration studied, a decrease on cell viability was observed. The estimated LD50 value was higher than 1612 mg/kg for both epimers. The LF, on the other hand, demonstrated an estimated LD50 of 422 mg/kg. Lignan cytotoxicity studies also evidenced that the higher cell viability was related to the higher concentration of fetal bovine serum as a source of albumin in medium. This is the first time the LD50 and safety of the isolated epimers were estimated, opening up great perspectives of success in in vivo studies.

AbstractNanoparticles consisting of different biocompatible materials are attracting a lot of interest in the biomedical area as useful tools for drug delivery, photo-therapy and contrast enhancement agents in MRI, fluorescence and confocal microscopy. This work mainly focuses on the synthesis of polymeric/inorganic multifunctional nanoparticles (PIMN) based on biocompatible di-block copolymer poly(L,L-lactide-co-ethylene glycol) (PLLA-PEG) via an emulsion-evaporation method. Besides containing a hydrophobic drug (Indomethacin), these polymeric nanoparticles incorporate different visualization agents such as superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) and fluorescent Quantum Dots (QDs) that are used as contrast agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and fluorescence microscopy together. Gold Nanorods are also incorporated in such nanostructures to allow simultaneous visualization and photodynamic therapy. MRI studies are performed with different loading of SPION into PIMN, showing an enhancement in T2 contrast superior to commercial contrast agents. Core-shell QDs absorption and emission spectra are recorded before and after their loading into PIMN. With these polymeric/inorganic multifunctional nanoparticles, both MRI visualization and confocal fluorescence microscopy studies can be performed. Gold nanorods are also synthesized and incorporated into PIMN without changing their longitudinal absorption peak usable for lased excitation and phototherapy. In-vitro cytotoxicity studies have also been performed to confirm the low cytotoxicity of PIMN for further in-vivo studies.

Caco-2 cells were used as in vitro models to assess the cell viability characteristics of the carriers Soluplus®, Gelucire 50/13 and PVP K25 and the nanoformulations of Naproxen and Piroxicam. The assessment of cell viability was done using the tetrazolium salt based MTT assay. Gelucire 50/13 and its NFs were observed to have slightly higher cytotoxicity than PVP and Soluplus® and their respective NFs. All the NFs were observed to follow the cytotoxicity trend of the polymers. Our results show that no significant decrease in cell viability was seen until 0.01% concentration of Gelucire 50/13 for 12-h exposure. The NFs as well as the polymers alone had no significant effect on the viability of Caco-2 cells below 0.01% concentrations. The intestine has a protective mucous layer, whereas the cell culture monolayers do not. The intestinal tissues also have more capacity to recover from trauma than the cultured cells. Hence the present NFs can be expected to show lesser cytotoxicity when subjected to in vivo studies.

Background: Cockle shell-derived calcium carbonate nanoparticles (CSCaCO3NP) are natural biogenic inorganic material that is used in drug delivery mainly as a bone-remodeling agent as well as a delivery agent for various therapeutics against bone diseases. Curcumin possess wide safety margin and yet puzzled with the problem of poor bioavailability due to insolubility. Propounding in vitro and in vivo studies on toxicity assessments of newly synthesized nanoparticles are ongoing to overcome some crucial challenges regarding their safety administration. Nanotoxicology has paved ways for concise test protocols to monitor sequential events with regards to possible toxicity of newly synthesized nanomaterials. The development of nanoparticle with no or less toxic effect has gained tremendous attentions. Objective: This study aimed at evaluating the in vitro cytotoxic effect of curcumin-loaded cockle shell-derived calcium carbonate nanoparticles (Cur-CSCaCO3NP) and assessing its biocompatibility on normal cells using standard techniques of WST’s assay. Method: Standard techniques of WST’s assay was used for the evaluation of the biocompatibility and cytotoxicity. Result: The result showed that CSCaCO3NP and Cur-CSCaCO3NP possess minimal toxicity and high biocompatibility on normal cells even at higher dose of 500 µg/ml and 40 µg/ml respectively. Conclusion: CSCaCO3NP can be termed an excellent non-toxic nanocarrier for curcumin delivery. Hence, curcumin loaded cockle shell derived calcium carbonate nanoparticles (Cur-CSCaCO3NP) could further be assessed for various in vivo and in vitro therapeutic applications against various bone related ailments.

Background: The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects of three different titanium (Ti) implant surfaces on the viability and secretory functions of mesenchymal stem cells isolated from a Bichat fat pad (BFP-MSCs). Methods: Four different Ti disks were used as substrate: (I) D1: smooth Ti, as control; (II) D2: chemically etched, resembling the Kontact S surface; (III) D3: sandblasted, resembling the Kontact surface; (IV) D4: blasted/etched, resembling the Kontact N surface. BFP-MSCs were plated on Ti disks for 72 h. Cell viability, adhesion on disks and release of a panel of cytokines, chemokines and growth factor were evaluated. Results: BFP-MSCs plated in wells with Ti surface showed a viability rate (~90%) and proliferative rate comparable to cells plated without disks and to cells plated on D1 disks. D2 and D4 showed the highest adhesive ability. All the Ti surfaces did not interfere with the release of cytokines, chemokines and growth factors by BFP-MSCs. However, BFP-MSCs cultured on D4 surface released a significantly higher amount of Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) compared either to cells plated without disks and to cells plated on D1 and D2. Conclusions: The implant surfaces examined do not impair the BFP-MSCs cell viability and preserve their secretion of cytokines and chemokines. Further in vitro and in vivo studies are necessary to define the implant surface parameters able to assure the chemokines’ optimal release for a real improvement of dental implant osseointegration.

AbstractIn the era where antibiotic resistance is considered one of the major worldwide concerns, bacteriophages have emerged as a promising therapeutic approach to deal with this problem. Genetically engineered bacteriophages can enable enhanced anti-bacterial functionalities, but require cloning additional genes into the phage genomes, which might be challenging due to the DNA encapsulation capacity of a phage. To tackle this issue, we designed and assembled for the first time synthetic phages with smaller genomes by knocking out up to 48% of the genes encoding hypothetical proteins from the genome of the newly isolated Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage vB_PaeP_PE3. The antibacterial efficacy of the wild-type and the synthetic phages was assessed in vitro as well as in vivo using a Galleria mellonella infection model. Overall, both in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that the knock-outs made in phage genome do not impair the antibacterial properties of the synthetic phages, indicating that this could be a good strategy to clear space from phage genomes in order to enable the introduction of other genes of interest that can potentiate the future treatment of P. aeruginosa infections.

Ricin A

Anti-B4-blocked Ricin (Anti-B4-bR) is an immunotoxin comprised of the anti-B4 monoclonal antibody (MoAb) and the protein toxin “blocked ricin.” The anti-B4 MoAb is directed against the B-lineage-restricted CD19 antigen expressed on more than 95% of normal and neoplastic B cells. Blocked ricin is an altered ricin derivative that has its nonspecific binding eliminated by chemically blocking the galactose binding domains of the B chain. In vitro cytotoxicity studies demonstrate that the IC37 of Anti-B4-bR is 2 x 10(-11) mol/L compared with 4 x 10(-12) mol/L for native ricin. A phase I dose escalation clinical trial was conducted in 25 patients with refractory B-cell malignancies. Anti-B4-bR was administered by daily 1-hour bolus infusion for 5 consecutive days at doses ranging from 1 microgram/kg/d to 60 micrograms/kg/d. Serum levels above 1 nmol/L were achieved transiently in the majority of patients treated at the maximum tolerated dose of 50 micrograms/kg/d for 5 days for a total dose of 250 micrograms/kg. The dose-limiting toxicity was defined by transient, reversible grade 3 elevations in hepatic transaminases, without impaired hepatic synthetic function. Minor toxicities included transient hypoalbuminemia, thrombocytopenia, and fevers. Human antimouse antibody and human anti-ricin antibody were detected in nine patients. One complete response, two partial responses, and eight mixed or transient responses were observed. These results show the in vitro and in vivo cytotoxicity of Anti-B4-bR and indicate that this immunotoxin can be administered as a daily bolus infusion for 5 days with tolerable, reversible toxicity.

Fluorescent probes offer great potential to identify and treat surgical tumors by clinicians. To this end, several molecular probes were examined as in vitro and in vivo bioimaging probes. However, due to their ultra-low extinction coefficients as well as photobleaching problems, conventional molecular probes limit its practical utility. To address the above mentioned challenges, metal nanoclusters (MNCs) can serve as an excellent alternative with many unique features such as higher molar extinction coefficients/light absorbing capabilities, good photostability and appreciable fluorescence quantum yields. Herein, we reported a green synthesis of water soluble palladium nanoclusters (Pd NCs) and characterized them by using various spectroscopic and microscopic characterization techniques. These nanoclusters showed excellent photophysical properties with the characteristic emission peak centered at 500 nm under 420 nm photoexcitation wavelength. In vitro cytotoxicity studies in human cervical cancer cells (HeLa) cells reveal that Pd NCs exhibited good biocompatibility with an IC50 value of >100 µg/mL and also showed excellent co-localization and distribution throughout the cytoplasm region with a significant fraction translocating into cell nucleus. We foresee that Pd NCs will carry huge potential to serve as a new generation bioimaging nanoprobe owing to its smaller size, minimal cytotoxicity, nucleus translocation capability and good cell labelling properties.

Abstract Abstract 283 Certain malignant B-cells rely upon B-cell receptor-mediated survival signals. Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) initiates and amplifies the B-cell receptor-mediated signal. We and others have demonstrated that fostamatinib disodium (FosD: a prodrug of R406, a potent and specific inhibitor of Syk) induces apoptosis in lymphoma cell lines and primary tumors. A recent clinical trial has demonstrated significant clinical activity of FosD in relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and minimal overlap in toxicities with conventional agents. Given this background, future development in B-cell NHL will include rational combinations of FosD and currently available therapies. Therefore, we conducted in vitro and in vivo studies of rational combinations including FosD, in anticipation of clinical trial development. First, using a human DLBCL cell line of GCB genotype, (OCI-Ly19), we analyzed in vitro the combination of R406 with the following agents: fludarabine, rapamycin, rituximab, bendamustine and bortezomib. Increased cytotoxicity was observed using in vitro culture assays with the addition of fludarabine, rapamycin, or rituximab to R406. Cell viability at 72 hours was 25% with R406 alone, 27% for fludarabine alone, and only 9% for the fludarabine/R406. At 48 hours, cell viability was 49% using R406 alone, 31% using rituximab alone, and 21% for rituximab/R406. At 120 hours using primary lymphoma cells (DLCL27), there were no viable cells treated with the rapamycin/FosD combination, compared with rapamycin alone (7%) or FosD alone (25%) The addition of bortezomib or bendamustine to FosD resulted in only a minimal additive increase in cytotoxicity. Results with all combinations were similar with the OCI-Ly10 human DLBCL line of ABC genotype. We then performed in vivo studies by subcutaneous transplantation of the DLBCL cell line OCI-Ly19, (engineered to express luciferase allowing for real time in vivo imaging) into immune deficient NOD/SCID mice which reproducibly formed tumors. Recipient animals were separated into uniform cohorts when the tumors were less than or equal to 500 mm3 in size. The animals were then simultaneously treated with FosD (n=7; 3 gm/kg ad. lib.; translates into 2-5 micromolar R406 systemically throughout the 24h period) and either bortezomib, (n=6; 0.4 mg/kg weekly IP), or rituximab, (n=13; 3 mg/kg, 2x weekly IP). Analysis of the OCI-Ly19 tumor volumes at day 46 showed a median of 2364 mm3 with bortezomib alone compared with 1823 mm3 with bortezomib and FosD. When FosD was combined with rituximab the most significant cytotoxicity was observed: (p=0.01; median tumor volume of 497 mm3 following the combination) in comparison to either FosD alone (3150 mm3) or rituximab alone (1764 mm3). We conclude that the addition of FosD appears to increase activity against NHL of several drugs, including fludarabine and rapamycin. These agents have significant activity in indolent and mantle cell NHL as well as CLL. Moreover, there is no evidence that FosD impedes rituximab responses in vitro or in vivo; in fact we have suggested possible synergy with the combination of rituximab and FosD. Based upon the documented single agent activity of FosD in humans, and this data, clinical trials are now indicated using these promising combinations in NHL and CLL.

205 Background: Docetaxel/DTX and cabazitaxel/CBZ have shown promise in the treatment of metastatic Castration-Refractory Prostate Cancer/mCPRC however, comparative studies are missing. Toxicities of these drugs are significant, urging the need to modify taxane regimens. Recently, low-dose metronomic/LDM treatments using conventional chemotherapeutic drugs have shown benefits in CPRC in improving the effect of anti-angiogenic agents. Previously, we have demonstrated that LDM-DTX in combination with PEDF curbs significantly CRPC growth, limits metastases formation and prolongs survival in vivo. In this study, we intended to compare the cytotoxic effect of CBZ and DTX on CRPC cells in vitro and CL1 tumors in vivo. Methods: PC3, DU145 cell lines were from ATCC.CL1 cells were obtained from androgen-deprived LNCaP cells. Cell proliferation was assessed by crystal violet staining and cell cycle analyses. In vitro cytotoxicity assays were performed on CL1 cells/RAW264.7 macrophages co-cultures treated with PEDF and increasing doses of taxanes. For the in vivo studies, CL1 cells were engineered to stably express the DsRed Express protein +/- PEDF. PEDF anti-tumor effects were assessed on s.c. xenografts treated with DTX (5mg/kg ip ev. 4 day) as reference, CBZ (5mg/kg ip ev. 4 days, 1mg/kg for 10 days, 0.5mg/kg q.a.d. and 0.1mg/kg daily) or placebo. Results: CBZ limits cell proliferation with a greater efficacy than DTX in all CRPC cell lines tested. DU145 presented the largest difference. High doses of taxane blocked tumor cells in mitosis, whereas LDM increased the SubG1 population. This effect was significantly higher in DU145 cells treated with CBZ. In vivo, 5mg/kg CBZ delayed tumor growth more efficiently than 5mg/kg DTX. PEDF/5mg/kg CBZ markedly delayed tumor growth compared to all treatments. Finally, engulfment of tumor cells by macrophages was higher in combined treatments suggesting an inflammation-related process. Conclusions: CBZ is more efficient than DTX both in vitro and in vivo.The data also reinforce PEDF as a promising anti-neoplasic agent in combination with LDM taxane chemotherapies.

e23102 Background: Ado trastuzumab emtansine (TDM1) is a novel antibody–drug conjugate consisting of trastuzumab (TRAS) covalently linked to the highly potent microtubule inhibitory agent DM1 via a stable thioether linker. TDM1 is used in metastatic ErbB2 positive breast cancer patients. Although, the potential cardiotoxic effects of TDM1 have not yet been fully elucidated, they can include changes in Ca2+ regulation related to blockade of ErbB2, PI3K-Akt and MAPK pathways. Here, we aim to elucidate whether Ranolazine (R), administered after TDM1 treatment, blunts or not cardiotoxicity in vivo and in vitro. Methods: In vitro, human fetal cardiomyocytes (HFC) were treated with TDM1 for 3 days and then treated in the absence or presence of R for 3 days. Cell viability was assessed by cell counting and MTT assay. To evaluate cardiac function in vivo, C57/BL6 mice, 2-4 months old, were daily treated with TDM1 (44.4 mg/kg/day). At day 0 and after 7 days, fractional shortening (FS) and ejection fraction (EF) were measured, by M/B mode echocardiography, and radial and longitudinal strain (RS and LS) were evaluated using 2D speckle-stracking. These measurements were repeated after 5 days of R treatment (305 mg/Kg/day), started at the end of TDM1 treatment. Results: R reduces TDM1 toxicity in HFC, as evidenced by the higher percentage of viable cells treated with TDM1+ R with respect to the cells treated with TDM1 alone (p < 0.01). In in vivo studies: after 7 days with TDM1 administration, FS decreased to 53.6±0.9%, versus 61.0±0.8 % (sham), (p < 0.01), and EF decreased to 85.5±3.5 % versus 91.0±0.8% (sham), (p < 0.01). Moreover, RS decreased to 20.92±3.2 % versus 42.2±10.1% (sham) (p < 0.01), and LS decreased to -15.5±2.8 % versus -23.6±6.7% (sham), (p < 0.01).In mice treated with TDM1 and, successively treated with R for 5 days, the indices of cardiac function partially recovered: FS 58±2.4 % (p < 0.05), EF 88.8±1.7 %, (p < 0.05), RS (35.7±8.2 %, p > 0.05), whereas the alteration of LS persists even after treatment with R (-17.3±3.7 %, p > 0.05) Conclusions: Here we show that in vivo R post-treatment reduces cardiotoxic effects due to TDM1, as demonstrated by the recovery of FS, EF and RS values. As expected, R increases cell viability of HFC treated with TDM1.
