Entrapment of Hydrophobic Drugs in Nanoparticle Monolayers with Efficient Release into Cancer Cells

Abstract: Gold nanoparticles functionalized with water-soluble zwitterionic ligands form kinetically stable complexes with hydrophobic drugs and dyes. These drugs and dyes are efficiently released into cells, as demonstrated through fluorescence microscopy and cytotoxicity assays. Significantly, there is little or no cellular uptake of particle, making these low toxicity particles promising for delivery applications.

“…These results seemed to confirm size dependent toxicity of AuNPs (Kim et al, 2009a;Visaria et al, 2006;Paciotti et al, 2004;El-Sayed et al, 2005b;Huang et al, 2008), an inference that has hitherto been somewhat ambivalent. On the other hand, found that the presence of sodium citrate residues on AuNPs impaired the viability in the alveolar type-II cell lines A549 and NCIH441.…”

“…The administrations of hydrophobic drugs require molecular encapsulation and it is found that nanosized particles are particularly efficient in evading the reticuloendothelial system. This approach gives a rare opportunity to prepare hybrid particles with a well-defined amount of drug and offers a new alternative for the design of nanosized drug-delivery systems (Kim et al, 2009a;Hwu et al, 2009;Gibson et al, 2007) (see Figure 4) Nanotechnology has provided for novel and powerful systems that may be used treatment of human diseases. However the majority of products, reagents and drugs being used for the development of these nanoscale systems have to be approved by the main supervising agencies, such as the FDA and EMA (Baptista, 2009).…”

“…Significant suppression and thermal ablation of tumor growth were observed after irradiation of direct and intravenously injected PEGmodified gold nanorods to tumors in mice. [55][56][57][58] Haung et al 54) reported their experiments using gold nanorods as photothermal therapeutic agents to kill cancer cells. They conjugated gold nanorods with monoclonal antibodies recognizing proteins that are overexpressed in cancer cell lines.…”

“…Au-NCs have attracted more attention in the past decade because of their ultra small size, excellent luminescence properties and stable structures or good storage stability [11][12][13][14]. In the recent years, gold nanoparticles have emerged for delivery of various payloads into their targets [15][16][17][18][19][20]. The payloads include small molecule drugs and big molecular proteins such as antibody and peptide.…”
