Synthesis of water-soluble chitosan-coated nanoceria with excellent antioxidant properties

Abstract: Nanoceria has been demonstrated as a potential antioxidative nano-drug. However, its short residence time in the body, toxic solvents involved in the synthesis processes, and especially the poor water solubility hinder its potential clinical applications. In this work, water-soluble chitosan-coated nanoceria particles (CNPs) are synthesized by a facile wet chemical route. The molar weight (MW) and concentration of chitosan do not affect the particles' size and the antioxidative activity of the CNPs over a wide… Show more

“…9 Until now, there have been only a few studies on the toxicity properties of nanoceria coated with polymers (dextran, PEG, chitosan, heparin) within the range of 3-20 nm against cancer cells (lung, breast, ovarian and pancreas), healthy cells (dermal fibroblasts, endothelial cells, keratinocytes, human monocytes, and macrophages). 1,2,[11][12][13]15,16,18,[21][22][23] Here, the treatment of osteosarcoma cells with dextran-coated nanoceria was shown for the first time. The role of dextran on the cytotoxicity properties of ceria against osteosarcoma was studied.…”

“…3,7 As a new nanoplatform, cerium oxide (nanoceria) is a promising candidate for improved cancer treatment, drug delivery, catalysis, and sensor applications. 2,[8][9][10][11][12][13] Nanoceria is a critical material that can provide protection to living systems against radiation damage, oxidative stress, and inflammation due to its capability to transition from Ce +3 to Ce +4 . It acts as an antioxidant at physiological pH values.…”
