Abstract
- This novel radiolabeled chitosan nanoparticle, facilitated with curcumin, increased doxorubicin cytotoxicity and radiosensitivity to MG-63 osteosarcoma cells in a three-dimensional model. Delivery of the anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) targeted carboxymethyl chitosan nanoparticles, directly labeled with Na131I (ICED-N), achieved deep tumor penetration in a three-dimensional model. Of three kinetic models, the Higuchi model more closely matched the experimental curve and release profiles. The anti-EGFR targeting resulted in a 513-fold greater targeting efficacy to MG-63 (EGFR+) cells than the control fibroblast (EGFR−) cells. The curcumin-enhanced ICED-N (4 × 0.925 MBq) fractionated-dose regime achieved an 18.3-fold increase in cell cytotoxicity compared to the single-dose (1 × 3.70 MBq) doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticle, and a 13.6-fold increase in cell cytotoxicity compared to the single-dose Na131I nanoparticle. Moreover, the ICED-N fractionated dose increased cells in the G2/M phase 8.78-fold, indicating the cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase is associated with DNA fragmentation, and the intracellular damage is unable to be repaired. Overall, the results indicate that the fractionated dose was more efficacious than a single dose, and curcumin substantially increased doxorubicin cytotoxicity and amplified osteosarcoma cell radiosensitivity to Na131I.
