METRICA, l’archivio istituzionale della produzione scientifica dell’Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica, ha lo scopo di raccogliere, documentare, conservare e pubblicare, anche ad accesso aperto, i prodotti della ricerca dell’Ente.
METRICA utilizza la piattaforma IRIS (Institutional Research Information System) sviluppata da Cineca.
EnglishThis study investigates cancer targeted gold nanoparticles as ultrasound sensitizers for the treatment of cancer.his study investigates cancer targeted gold nanoparticles as ultrasound sensitizers for the treatment of cancer. Methods: The ultrasound sensitizer activity of folate-PEG decorated gold nanoparticles (FA-PEG-GNP) has been studied on human cancer cell lines that overexpress folate receptors (KB and HCT-116) and another that does not (MCF7), at two ultrasound energy densities (8 × 10-6 J cm-2 and 8 × 10-5 J cm-2, for 5 min at 1.866 MHz). Results: FA-PEG-GNP selectively targeted KB and HCT-116 cells and a remarkable reduction in cancer cell growth was observed upon ultrasound exposure, along with significant reactive oxygen species generation and increase in necrotic cells. Conclusion: The combined use of targeting capacity and the ultrasound sensitizing effect, make FA-PEG-GNP promising candidates for the site-specific cancer treatment. © 2016 Future Medicine Ltd.
