Piceatannol (PIC) is known to have anticancer activity, which has been attributed to its ability to block the proliferation of cancer cells via suppression of the NF-kB signaling pathway. However, its effect on hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is not well known in cancer. In this study, PIC was loaded into bovine serum albumin (BSA) by desolvation method as PIC–BSA nanoparticles (NPs). These PIC–BSA nanoparticles were assessed for in vitro cytotoxicity, migration, invasion, and colony formation studies and levels of p65 and HIF-1α. Our results indicate that PIC–BSA NPs were more effective in downregulating the expression of nuclear p65 and HIF-1α in colon cancer cells as compared to free PIC. We also observed a significant reduction in inflammation induced by chemical colitis in mice by PIC–BSA NPs. Furthermore, a significant reduction in tumor size and number of colon tumors was also observed in the murine model of colitis-associated colorectal cancer, when treated with PIC–BSA NPs as compared to free PIC. The overall results indicate that PIC, when formulated as PIC–BSA NPs, enhances its therapeutic potential. Our work could prompt further research in using natural anticancer agents as nanoparticels with possible human clinical trails. This could lead to the development of a new line of safe and effective therapeutics for cancer patients.

The aim of the present research was to perform green synthesis of gold nanoparticles of isolated citrus bioflavonoid from Citrus sinensis (orange) peel extract and to evaluate its anticancer potential. Methanolic extract of orange peel was obtained by Soxhlet extraction and citrus bioflavonoid was isolated by using column chromatography. Gold nanoparticles were developed by green synthesis method, wherein 1 % aqueous solution of isolated citrus bioflavonoid were mixed with 1% solution of HAuCl4 and incubated at ambient temperature for 4 to 5 hours and observed for the color change which indicated formation of nanoparticles. Obtained gold nanoparticles were evaluated by UV visible spectra, FTIR, SEM, XRD analysis and for antimicrobial potential against E coli, S.aureus and P. aeruginosa. Cytotoxicity study was carried out by using in vitro assays, namely MTT, SRB and Tryphan blue assay, against colon cancer cell line Colo 320 DM, and HT 29. results of SEM showed that nanosized particles in the range of 80-100nm were formed. Results of cytotoxicity studies revealed that CBFGNP exhibited 72.28% inhibition, against Colo320 DM whereas pure CBF showed 70.46% inhibition. Against HT 29, CBFGNP exhibited 69.79% inhibition, whereas for MTT assay and SRB assay, CBFGNP showed 80.15% and 58.29% inhibition, respectively. Moreover, CBFGNP exhibited 90.29% and 85% non viability against Colo320 DM and HT29. Based on the results, it can be concluded that gold nanoparticles of citrus bioflavonoid (CBFGNP) exhibits more cytotoxicity against Colo320 DM and HT29 as compared to pure citrus bioflavonoid when assessed by three different in vitro cytotoxicity assays.

AbstractThe combination therapy which has been proposed as the strategy for the cancer treatment could achieve a synergistic effect for cancer therapies and reduce the dosage of the applied drugs. On account of the the unique properties as the high absorbed water content, biocompatibility, and flexibility, the targeting nanogels have been considred as a suitable platform. Herein, a non-toxic pH/thermo-responsive hydrogel P(NIPAAm-co-DMAEMA) was synthesized and characterized through the free-radical polymerization and expanded upon an easy process for the preparation of the smart responsive nanogels; that is, the nanogels were used for the efficient and controlled delivery of the anti-cancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) and chemosensitizer curcumin (CUR) simultaneously like a promising strategy for the cancer treatment. The size of the nanogels, which were made, was about 70 nm which is relatively optimal for the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effects. The DOX and CUR co-loaded nanocarriers were prepared by the high encapsulation efficiency (EE). It is important to mention that the controlled drug release behavior of the nanocarriers was also investigated. An enhanced ability of DOX and CUR-loaded nanoformulation to induce the cell apoptosis in the HT-29 colon cancer cells which represented the greater antitumor efficacy than the single-drug formulations or free drugs was resulted through the In vitro cytotoxicity. Overall, according to the data, the simultaneous delivery of the dual drugs through the fabricated nanogels could synergistically potentiate the antitumor effects on the colon cancer (CC).
