The present work explores the ability of poly(1-vinylimidazole) (PVI) to complex small interfering RNA (siRNA) silencing vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the in vitro efficiency of the formed complexes in A549 lung cancer cells. The polyplex formed was found to exhibit 66% complexation efficiency. The complexation was confirmed by gel retardation assays, FTIR and thermal analysis. The blank PVI polymer was not toxic to cells. The polyplex was found to exhibit excellent internalization and escaped the endosome effectively. The polyplex was more effective than free siRNA in silencing VEGF in lung cancer cells. The silencing of VEGF was quantified using Western blot and was also reflected in the depletion of HIF-1α levels in the cells treated with the polyplex. VEGF silencing by the polyplex was found to augment the cytotoxic effects of the chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil. Microarray analysis of the mRNA isolated from cells treated with free siRNA and the polyplex reveal that the VEGF silencing by the polyplex also altered the expression levels of several other genes that have been connected to the proliferation and invasion of lung cancer cells. These results indicate that the PVI complexes can be an effective agent to counter lung cancer.

Lung cancer is the most common visceral malignancy in males, with rapidly increasing incidence in females, and a devastatingly poor prognosis. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β has been shown to induce senescence in A549 lung cancer cells, and both TGF-β and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 2 can suppress the transformed phenotype of A549 cells in vitro. We examined the effects of BMP4, another member of the TGF-β superfamily, on specific oncogenic properties of A549 cancer cells. When A549 cancer cells were treated continuously with 100 ng/ml of BMP4, a senescent phenotype was observed after 2 wk of treatment. The BMP-treated cells appeared larger than untreated cells, grew more slowly, had more senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity, and had less telomerase activity, as measured by the telomeric repeat amplification protocol assay. Invasion through Engelbreth Holm-Swarm matrix was inhibited in the senescent cell population. Senescent BMP4-treated cells had lower ERK activation, VEGF expression, and Bcl2 expression than wild-type cells, consistent with a less proliferative, less angiogenic phenotype with increased susceptibility to death by apoptosis. BMP4 treatment also resulted in sustained elevation of Smad1. In vivo xenograft studies in the flanks of nude mice confirmed that the BMP-treated cells were significantly less tumorigenic than untreated cells. Direct overexpression of Smad1 using adenoviral constructs resulted in cell death within 5 days. These studies suggest that BMP4 pathway signaling can induce senescence and thus negatively regulate the growth of A549 lung cancer cells.

Naringenin (NAR), a flavonoid mainly found in citrus and grapefruits, has proven anti-cancer activities. However, the poor water solubility and low bioavailability of NAR limits its use as a therapeutic agent. The aim of this study was to develop and optimize stable naringenin nanoemulsions (NAR-NE) using a Box–Behnken experimental design to obtain a formulation with a higher efficiency. Anticancer activity of optimized NAR-NE was evaluated in A549 lung cancer cells using cell viability, flow-cytometric assays, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The stabilized nanoemulsion, which showed a spherical surface morphology, had a globule size of 85.6 ± 2.1 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.263 ± 0.02, a zeta potential of −9.6 ± 1.2 mV, and a drug content of 97.34 ± 1.3%. The NAR release from the nanoemulsion showed an initial burst release followed by a stable and controlled release for a longer period of 24 h. The nanoemulsion exhibited excellent thermodynamic and physical stability against phase separation and storage. The NAR-NE showed concentration-dependent cytotoxicity in A549 lung cancer cells, which was greater than that of free NAR. The percentage of apoptotic cells and cell cycle arrest at the G2/M and pre-G1 phases induced by NAR-NE were significantly higher than those produced by free NAR (p < 0.05). NAR-NEs were more effective than the NAR solution in reducing Bcl2 expression, while increasing pro-apoptotic Bax and caspase-3 activity. Therefore, stabilized NAR-NE could be a suitable drug delivery system to enhance the effects of NAR in the treatment of lung cancer.

The present work explores the ability of poly (1-vinyl imidazole) to complex si-RNA against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its in vitro efficiency in A549 lung cancer cells. The polyplex formed was found to exhibit 66% complexation efficiency. The complexation was confirmed by gel retardation assay, FTIR and thermal analysis. The blank PVI polymer was not toxic to cells. The polyplex was found to exhibit excellent internalization and escaped the endosome effectively. The polyplex was more effective than the free si-RNA in silencing VEGF in lung cancer cells. The silencing of VEGF was quantified using Western blot which was also reflected in depletion of HIF-1a levels in the cells treated with the polyplex. VEGF silencing by the polyplex was found to augment the cytotoxic effects of the chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil. Microarray analysis of the mRNA isolated from cells treated with free siRNA and polyplex reveal that the superior VEGF silencing by the polyplex altered the expression levels of several other genes that have been implicated in the proliferation and invasion of lung cancer cells. These results indicate that PVI complexed anti-VEGF can be an effective strategy to counter lung cancer.

Two novel water soluble heteroglycan (PCp-I and PCp-II) with anti-A549 lung cancer cells activity were isolated from Psoralea corylifolia L. Their average molecular weights were 2.721 × 104 and 2.850 × 104. PCp-I and PCp-II had the same monosaccharide composition, but their molar ratios were different. Based on methylation and NMR spectroscopy, the part structure of PCp-I was identified. The results of scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that PCp-I had an irregular porous structure and PCp-II was flaky and irregularly curved. The results of thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) showed that PCp-I and PCp-II had good thermal stability. Furthermore, PCp-I and PCp-II exhibited significant anti-A549 lung cancer cells activity (IC50 = 64.84 and 126.30 μM) in vitro.
