Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of magnetic iron-oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles with different skin materials on cytotoxicity against human cervix cancer HeLa cells.Methods The Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared by solvent-free dissolving method and then covered with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and cholic acid (CA)-PLGA respectively.After the characterization,the uptake of nanoparticles by HeLa cells was observed by laser scanning confocal microscopy,and thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTF) assay was used to assess the cytotoxcity of the Fe3O4-loaded nanoparticles against HeLa cells.Results The size of single Fe3O4 nanoparticle was about 7 nm.The Fe3O4-loaded PLGA and CA-PLGA nanoparticles were spherical in shape under transmission electron microscope,around 200 nm in diameter,and the theoretical drug-loading capacity was 10％.At the same Fe3O4 nanoparticles concentration of 25 μg/ml,the Fe3O4-loaded CA-PLGA nanoparticles showed less toxicity than Fe3O4-loaded PLGA nanoparticles.Conclusions Star-shaped copolymer CA-PLGA is promising in decreasing cytotoxicity of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and expanding its application in living organisms.
