Abstract:
Objective:To prepare solid lipid nanoparticles of etoposide and evaluate the inhibitory rate against Lewis lung cancer cells in mice. Methods:Etoposide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles were prepared by a hot melting emulsification and high pressure homogenization method. The physicochemical properties such as the appearance, microstructure, particle size distribution and zeta potential of the solid lipid nanoparticles were studied. The in vitro release behavior of the solid lipid nanoparticles were evaluated. The inhibitory effect of etoposide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles and etoposide injection on Lewis lung cancer cells was compared. Results:Etoposide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles showed a light blue transparent liquid,which was uniformly spherical under the transmission electron microscope. The average particle size was (153.2 ± 32.8) nm, PdI was (0.185 ± 0.031),and the zeta potential was(-17.4 ± 1.1) mV. The solid lipid nanoparticles could delay the drug release and 52.4% of the drug was released in 24 h. Etoposide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles could significantly inhibit the growth of Lewis lung cancer cells in mice. And the inhibitory rate of the solid lipid nanoparticles was significantly higher than that of etoposide injection (P < 0.05). Conclusion:The solid lipid nanoparticles prepared by hot melting emulsification and high pressure homogenization method have good antitumor effect on Lewis lung cancer cells,which can be used as a new drug delivery system for etoposide with certain application prospect in lung cancer treatment.
