研究目的
To develop a multi-stimuli responsive nanoagent based on Pd nanoparticle-decorated hydroxy boron nitride nanosheets for combined chemo-photothermal therapy in cancer treatment.
研究成果
The Pd@OH-BNNS nanohybrids demonstrated high drug loading capacity, multi-stimuli responsive drug release, effective photothermal properties, and significant antitumor efficacy in vitro and in vivo with low cytotoxicity. The combination of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy showed superior results compared to monotherapies, indicating potential for cancer treatment applications. Future work should focus on long-term toxicity assessments and clinical translations.
研究不足
The long-term toxicity of Pd@OH-BNNS was not fully evaluated and requires further study. The research is limited to specific cell lines (MCF-7) and animal models (S180 tumors in mice), and may not generalize to other cancers or organisms.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved preparing hydroxy boron nitride nanosheets (OH-BNNS) via a thermal substitution method and decorating them with Pd nanoparticles through a reduction reaction to create Pd@OH-BNNS nanohybrids. These were used as drug carriers for doxorubicin (DOX), with experiments designed to test drug loading, release under various stimuli (pH, glutathione, NIR irradiation), cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, and in vivo antitumor effects.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
MCF-7 human breast cancer cells and S180 tumor-bearing mice were used as models. Samples included OH-BNNS, Pd@OH-BNNS, and Pd@OH-BNNS/DOX nanocomposites.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a muffle furnace, ultrasonicator, centrifuge, UV-vis spectrometer, confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), infrared thermal camera, and digital microscope. Materials included melamine, boric acid, PdCl2, NaBH4, doxorubicin, phosphate buffer solution (PBS), glutathione (GSH), and cell culture reagents.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
OH-BNNS were synthesized by calcining g-C3N4 and boric acid, followed by exfoliation. Pd@OH-BNNS was prepared by reducing PdCl2 on OH-BNNS. Drug loading was done by stirring with DOX, and release studies were conducted under varying pH, GSH, and NIR irradiation. Cytotoxicity was assessed via MTT assay, cellular uptake via CLSM, and in vivo studies involved tumor inoculation, treatment injections, and monitoring.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data were analyzed using UV-vis spectroscopy for drug quantification, fluorescence measurements, statistical analysis for cell viability and tumor inhibition rates, and imaging analysis for thermal and histological evaluation.
