Doxorubicin-Loaded Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Induce Oxidative Stress and Cell Cycle Arrest in Breast Cancer Cells. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12020237. [PMID: 36829796 PMCID: PMC9952039 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12020237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Revised: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Cancer is one of the most common diseases nowadays and derives from the uncontrollable growth of a single cell. Magnetic nanoparticles (NpMag) offer various possibilities for use in the biomedical area, including drug delivery mediated by magnetic fields. In the current study, we evaluated the in vitro effects of iron-oxide magnetic nanoparticles conjugated with the antitumor drug doxorubicin (Dox) on human breast cancer cells. Our results revealed that magnetic nanoparticles with Dox (NpMag+Dox) induce cellular redox imbalance in MCF-7 cells. We also demonstrate that iron-oxide nanoparticles functionalized with Dox induce oxidative stress evidenced by DNA damage, lipid peroxidation, cell membrane disruption, and loss of mitochondria potential. As a result, NpMag+Dox drives MCF-7 cells to stop the cell cycle and decrease cell migration. The association of NpMg+Dox induced a better delivery of Dox to MCF cells, mainly in the presence of a magnetic field, increasing the death of MCF cells which might reduce the toxicity for healthy cells providing a better efficacy for the treatment. Thus, iron-oxide nanoparticles and doxorubicin conjugated may be candidate for anticancer therapy.

Abstract
The effects of gamma irradiation on structure and magnetic properties of nickel ferrite nanoparticles, prepared by the sol-gel method and sintered at 300, 500 and 900 °C, are studied through X-ray diffraction, positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, coincidence Doppler broadening spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometer. The prepared samples were irradiated with gamma rays from 60Co, 137Cs and 22Na for 1, 2 and 3 weeks that received 0.47, 0.94 and 1.41 rad dose of radiation. The XRD patterns showed that the prepared and irradiated samples are single phase with cubic spinel structure. The cation distribution, lattice constant, average crystallite size and lattice strain were obtained by the Rietveld refinement of XRD patterns and their variations with irradiation depend on sintering temperature and therefore the particle size. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed formation of nanoparticles. Positron annihilation lifetime and coincidence Doppler broadening measurements showed that for prepared samples with an increase in sintering temperature the size of vacancies increase while their concentrations decrease. It is observed that the effect of gamma radiation on samples depend on sintering temperature or particles size of samples. Also, the type of defects in sample sintered at 300 °C recognized different from samples sintered at 500 and 900 °C. Saturation magnetization and coercivity increased for prepared samples with increase in sintering temperature. The variations of saturation magnetization and coercivity with gamma irradiation for samples sintered at various temperature were different and explained with variation in cation distribution and surrounding environment of vacancies in samples. The measurements showed that samples with more vacancy concentration undergo more cation redistribution due to gamma radiation.

Abstract
Recent investigations have demonstrated that nickel ferrite nanoparticles and their derivatives have toxicity effects on bacterial cells. In this study, we have prepared nickel ferrite nanoparticles (Ni/NiFe2O4) and nickel/nickel ferrite graphene oxide (Ni/NiFe2O4-GO) nanocomposite and evaluated their toxic effects on E. coli cells ATCC 25922. The prepared nanomaterials were characterized using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometry techniques. The toxicity was evaluated using variations in cell viability, cell morphology, protein degradation, and oxidative stress. Ni/NiFe2O4-GO nanocomposites likewise prompt oxidative stress proved by the age of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and exhaustion of antioxidant glutathione. This is the first report indicating that Ni/NiFe2O4-GO nanocomposite-initiated cell death in E. coli through ROS age and oxidative stress.

The Cation Distributions of Zn-doped Normal Spinel MgFe 2O 4 Ferrite and Its Magnetic Properties. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15072422. [PMID: 35407754 PMCID: PMC8999915 DOI: 10.3390/ma15072422] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2022] [Revised: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022]
Abstract
Determining the exact occupation sites of the doping ions in spinel ferrites is vital for tailoring and improving their magnetic properties. In this study, the distribution and occupation sites of cations in MgFe2O4 and Zn-doped MgFe2O4 ferrite are imaged by Cs-STEM. The experimental STEM images along [001], [011] and [111] orientations suggest that the divalent Mg2+ cations occupy all A sites, and the trivalent Fe3+ cations occupy all B sites in MgFe2O4 ferrite prepared by electrospinning, which is consistent with the normal spinel structure. We further clarify that the preferred sites of dopant Zn2+ ions are Fe3+ crystallographic sites in the Zn-doped MgFe2O4 ferrite nanofibers. Magnetic measurements show that Zn doping affects the spin states of the Fe3+, and the Fe3+-O2−-Fe3+ super-exchange interaction leads to enhancements in the magnetization and reduction in the Curie temperature. Our work should contribute a significant step toward eventually realizing the practical application of doped spinel ferrites.

Abstract
Spinel NiFe2O4nanoparticles have been synthesized via hydrothermal route usingMangifera indicaflower extract (MIFE) as a green surfactant and reducing agent. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy techniques have been used to determine the structure and morphology. The formation of single-phase, monodispersed NiFe2O4with mixed morphology, the predominant shape being of equi-axed nanoparticles having an average particle size ≲45 nm, is observed. The thermal magnetization of as-synthesized NiFe2O4nanoparticles shows ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase transition atTc ∼ 825 K. These nanoparticles show a very high saturation magnetization (Ms) value of 55 emu g-1close to the bulk material and amongst the highest reported values for green synthesized NiFe2O4 nanoparticles. This material has a coercivity (Hc) of 0.15 kOe and remanent magnetization (Mr) of 8.5 emu g-1. The as-synthesized NiFe2O4nanoparticles show bandgap energy of 2.02 eV, derived from UV-vis absorption measurement, which is suitable for effective solar photocatalytic reactions. When exposed to sunlight in the presence of as-synthesized NiFe2O4nanoparticles, 93% of MB-dye degradation is measured in 80 min, indicating excellent photocatalytic properties. Based on the as-synthesized NiFe2O4nanoparticles' observed properties, the effectiveness of MIFE as an environmentally friendly surfactant, and the low-cost dye-degradation prospects of green synthesized NiFe2O4nanoparticles are affirmed.

Abstract
Safe inorganic nanomaterials are tremendously used for diagnosis and therapies. However, essential processing in the microbiological environment changed the physical properties and in situ degradability, which is evaluated meticulously. In this research article, bare, Polyethylene glycol, and citrate coated manganese doped iron oxide nanoparticles are synthesized through the coprecipitation route. Structural, magnetic, optical, and morphological analyses are performed through different characterization tools. X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of single-phase FeMnO3 with a crystallite size of 48.91 nm. Vibrating sample magnetometer analysis confirmed the formation of soft ferromagnetic behavior of bare and coated nanoparticles (NPs). Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of spherical shaped nanoparticles. Single-dose in vivo acute toxicity testing is performed through the intraperitoneal route of administration on groups of healthy albino rats. Elevated enzyme levels of kidney and liver are observed at day 1 but a transient decrease is observed at later stages. Through optical follow-up, degradation effects are studied by adding prepared NPs in lysosomal like medium. Finally, metabolization of degraded products based on manganese/iron ions is studied by adding apoferritin into a lysosome like solution. These studies showed partial storage of manganese ions from NPs, while no substantial transfer is observed in the case of manganese salt.

Abstract
Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) has recently emerged as a promising non-invasive imaging technique because of its signal linearly propotional to the tracer mass, ability to generate positive contrast, low tissue background, unlimited tissue penetration depth, and lack of ionizing radiation. The sensitivity and resolution of MPI are highly dependent on the properties of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), and extensive research efforts have been focused on the design and synthesis of tracers. This review examines parameters that dictate the performance of MNPs, including size, shape, composition, surface property, crystallinity, the surrounding environment, and aggregation state to provide guidance for engineering MPI tracers with better performance. Finally, we discuss applications of MPI imaging and its challenges and perspectives in clinical translation.

Abstract
Chemically modified biopolymers derived nanomaterials have shown great potential in drug delivery and live-cell imaging. We have developed two materials, doxorubicin-loaded chitosan-gold nanoparticles and beads, both embedded with functionalized silk fibroin. Nanoparticles with size 8 ± 3 nm were synthesized using chitosan as reducing and stabilizing agent. Beads with 900-1000 μm size were formulated by the ionic gelation technique. Both the materials were coated with functionalized silk fibroin for targeted and sustained drug release properties. The coated materials showed retarded drug release compared to the uncoated ones. The cytotoxicity was assessed in HeLa cell lines, which demonstrated a maximum dose-dependent decrease in cell viability for the cells treated with folate conjugated silk fibroin coated nanoparticles. The live-cell imaging of the nanoparticles unveiled the increased cellular uptake of the coated materials by seven folds than the uncoated ones. Thus, functionalized silk coated materials can be effective drug delivery tools for targeted and sustained drug release.

Abstract
Even today, breast cancer remains a global public problem, with a high mortality rate among women. Nanoparticle (NP) based systems are developed to enhance drug delivery, reducing the toxic effect of medicine molecules. By using iron oxide nanoparticles for cancer treatment, several advantages were highlighted: the ability to target specific locations derived from their magnetic properties and reduced side effects. The aim of this study was to examine on breast cancer cell line the anticancer potential of γ-Fe2O3 NPs loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) and stabilized with carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMCNa). The γ-Fe2O3 NPs were synthesized by laser pyrolysis technique and their nanometric size and crystallinity were confirmed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The loading efficiency was estimated by using absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The DOX conjugated//CMCNa coated γ-Fe2O3 NPs proved through the biological studies to have a good anticancer effect through the inhibition of tumoral cell proliferation, disruption of the cellular membrane, induction of cell death and reduced effects on normal breast cells. Our data showed that DOX cytotoxicity increases significantly when conjugated with ɣ-Fe2O3 and ɣ-Fe2O3_CMCNa, a 50% reduction of cancer cell viability was obtained with a concentration around 0.1 µg/mL.

Abstract
Research on iron oxide-based magnetic nanoparticles and their clinical use has been, so far, mainly focused on the spherical shape. However, efforts have been made to develop synthetic routes that produce different anisotropic shapes not only in magnetite nanoparticles, but also in other ferrites, as their magnetic behavior and biological activity can be improved by controlling the shape. Ferrite nanoparticles show several properties that arise from finite-size and surface effects, like high magnetization and superparamagnetism, which make them interesting for use in nanomedicine. Herein, we show recent developments on the synthesis of anisotropic ferrite nanoparticles and the importance of shape-dependent properties for biomedical applications, such as magnetic drug delivery, magnetic hyperthermia and magnetic resonance imaging. A brief discussion on toxicity of iron oxide nanoparticles is also included.

Abstract
Manganese, zinc, and iron are the most essential micronutrients required for plant growth and applied as foliar fertilizers. Herein, a simple template-free microwave-assisted hydrothermal green synthesis technique was adapted to produce manganese zinc ferrite nanoparticles (Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 NPs) at different temperatures (100, 120, 140, 160 and 180 °C). The prepared nanomaterials were employed at different concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 30 ppm) as foliar nanofertilizers during the squash (Cucurbita pepo L) planting process. X-ray diffraction patterns of the prepared nanomaterials confirmed successful production of the nanoferrite material. The prepared nanofertilizers showed type IV adsorption isotherm characteristic for mesoporous materials. FE-SEM and HR-TEM imaging showed that the nanoparticles were cubic shaped and increased in particle size with the increase in microwave temperature during production. The impact of application of the synthesized ferrite nanoparticles on vegetative growth, proximate analysis, minerals content and the yield of squash plant was investigated for two consecutive successful planting seasons. The nanoferrite synthesized at 160 °C and applied to the growing plants at a concentration of 10 ppm gave the highest increase in % yield (49.3 and 52.9%) compared to the untreated squash for the two consecutive seasons, whereas the maximum organic matter content (73.0 and 72.5%) and total energy (260 and 258.3 kcal/g) in squash leaves were obtained in plants treated with 30 ppm ferrite nanoparticles synthesized at 180 °C. On the other hand, the maximum organic matter content (76.6 and 76.3%) and total energy (253.6 and 250.3 kcal/g) in squash fruits were attained with plants supplied by 20 ppm ferrite nanoparticles synthesized at 160 °C. These results indicate that the simple template-free microwave-assisted hydrothermal green synthesis technique for the production of manganese zinc ferrite nanoparticles yields nanoparticles appropriate for use as fertilizer for Cucurbita pepo L.

Abstract
A well-established method for treating cancerous tumors is magnetic hyperthermia, which uses localized heat generated by the relaxation mechanism of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in a high-frequency alternating magnetic field. In this work, we investigate the heating efficiency of cylindrical NiFe MNPs, fabricated by template-assisted pulsed electrodeposition combined with differential chemical etching. The cylindrical geometry of the MNP enables the formation of the triple vortex state, which increases the heat generation efficiency by four times. Using time-dependent calorimetric measurements, the specific absorption rate (SAR) of the MNPs was determined and compared with the numerical calculations from micromagnetic simulations and vibrating sample magnetometer measurements. The magnetization reversal of high aspect ratios MNPs showed higher remanent magnetization and low-field susceptibility leading to higher hysteresis losses, which was reflected in higher experimental and theoretical SAR values. The SAR dependence on magnetic field strength exhibited small SAR values at low magnetic fields and saturates at high magnetic fields, which is correlated to the coercive field of the MNPs and a characteristic feature of ferromagnetic MNPs. The optimization of cylindrical NiFe MNPs will play a pivotal role in producing high heating performance and biocompatible magnetic hyperthermia agents.

Abstract
Cancer remains one of the most difficult to manage healthcare problems. The last two decades have been considered the golden age of cancer research, with major breakthroughs being announced on a regular basis. However, the major problem regarding cancer treatment is the incapability to selectively target cancer cells, with certain populations of tumors still remaining alive after treatment. The main focus of researchers is to develop treatments that are both effective and selective in targeting malignant cells. In this regard, bioavailability can be increased by overcoming the biological barriers encountered in the active agent’s pathway, creating carrier vehicles that have the ability to target malignant cells and effectively release the active agent. Since its appearance, nanomedicine has provided many answers to these challenges, but still, some expectations were not satisfied. In this review, we focused on the most recent developments in targeted drug delivery. Furthermore, a summary of different types of nanoparticles used to deliver active therapeutic agents in oncology is presented, along with details on the nanodrugs that were clinically approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), until April 2019.

Abstract
Copper ferrite nanoparticles, synthesized by conventional sol-gel method were calcined at different temperatures. The magnetic, structural, morphological and cytotoxicity analyses of the uncalcined and calcined nanoparticles (NPs) were investigated and compared. Formation of tetragonal structure of CuFe2O4 NPs was observed in XRD patterns. On increasing the temperature, better crystallinity and increased crystallite size were also observed. In the FTIR spectra, bonds corresponding to CH, OH and carboxylate groups gradually disappeared with increasing temperature, while peak corresponding to FeO existed more prominently. NPs calcined at 300 °C (Cu3) exhibited the highest magnetic saturation and lowest retentivity, thereby indicating its superparamagnetic behaviour. Concentration-dependent cytotoxicity values were obtained by invitro MTT (3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, a tetrazole) assay, Cell Titer assay and Cell Flow Cytometry with Propidium Iodide. NPs calcined at 300 °C, 500 °C and 700 °C exhibited non-toxicity at all the concentrations. Based on magnetic and biocompatibility analyses, Cu3 NPs were found to be the most suitable one to investigate the influence of silica coating on its surface. Presence of silica was confirmed by XRD pattern, FTIR spectrum, SEM and HRTEM micrographs as well as SAED pattern. In M-H curve, superparamagnetic behaviour of the CuFe2O4 core was retained but with reduced magnetic saturation due to magnetically dead layer of silica. An increase in cellular viability was witnessed in case of silica coated CuFe2O4 NPs as compared to uncoated NPs, thus reflecting on its enhanced biocompatibility. Nanosized, superparamagnetic and highly biocompatible characteristics make silica coated CuFe2O4 NPs a potential claimant for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Although conventional chemotherapy has been successful to some extent, the main drawbacks of chemotherapy are its poor bioavailability, high-dose requirements, adverse side effects, low therapeutic indices, development of multiple drug resistance, and non-specific targeting. The main aim in the development of drug delivery vehicles is to successfully address these delivery-related problems and carry drugs to the desired sites of therapeutic action while reducing adverse side effects. In this review, we will discuss the different types of materials used as delivery vehicles for chemotherapeutic agents and their structural characteristics that improve the therapeutic efficacy of their drugs and will describe recent scientific advances in the area of chemotherapy, emphasizing challenges in cancer treatments. Improving the delivery of cancer therapies to tumor sites is crucial to reduce unwanted side effects and patient mortality rates. Pralay Maiti and colleagues at the Indian Institute of Technology in Varanasi, India, review the latest developments in drug delivery vehicles and treatment approaches designed to enhance the effectiveness of current cancer therapies. New nanoparticle-based carriers, hydrogels and hybrid materials that offer controlled and sustained drug release are showing great promise in animal models. Furthermore, materials that respond to stimuli such as heat, light, magnetic or electric fields are also being tested to aid target-specific drug delivery and, thus, avoid damage to healthy tissues. Although there are some challenges in translating these findings to the clinic, there is no doubt that technological advances are shaping better and safer treatment options.

Abstract
Novel oral microbeads were developed based on a biopolymer-drug conjugate of doxorubicin (DOX) conjugated with thiolated pectin via reducible disulfide bonds. The microbeads were fabricated by ionotropic gelation with cations such as Al3+, Ca2+ and Zn2+. The results showed that using zinc acetate can produce the strongest microbeads with spherical shape. However, the microbeads prepared from thiolated pectin-DOX conjugate were very soft and irregular in shape. To produce more spherical microbeads with suitable strength, the native pectin was then added to the formulations. The particle size of the microbeads ranged from 0.87 to 1.14 mm. The morphology of the microbeads was characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. DOX was still in crystalline form when used in preparing the microbeads, as confirmed by powder X-ray diffractometry. Drug release profiles showed that the microbeads containing thiolated pectin-DOX conjugate exhibited reduction-responsive character; in reducing environments, the thiolated pectin-DOX conjugate could uncouple resulting from a cleavage of the disulfide linkers and consequently release the DOX. The best-fit release kinetics of the microbeads containing thiolated pectin-DOX conjugate, in the medium without reducing agent, fit the Korsmeyer-Peppas model while those in the medium with reducing agent fit a zero-order release model. These results suggested that the microbeads containing thiolated pectin-DOX conjugate may be a promising platform for cancer-targeted delivery of DOX, exploiting the reducing environment typically found in tumors.

Abstract
A chemical template strategy was put forward to synthesize monodisperse rattle-type magnetic carbon (Fe3O4@C) hollow microspheres. During the synthesis procedure, monodisperse Fe2O3 microspheres were used as chemical template, which released Fe3+ ions in acidic solution and initiated the in-situ polymerization of pyrrole into polypyrrole (PPy) shell. With the continual acidic etching of Fe2O3 microspheres, rattle-type Fe2O3@PPy microspheres were generated with the cavity appearing between the PPy shell and left Fe2O3 core, which were then transformed into Fe3O4@C hollow microspheres through calcination in nitrogen atmosphere. Compared with traditional physical template, the shell and cavity of rattle-type hollow microspheres were generated in one step using the chemical template method, which obviously saved the complex procedures including the coating and removal of middle shells. The experimental results exhibited that the rattle-type Fe3O4@C hollow microspheres with different parameters could be regulated through controlled synthesis of the intermediate Fe2O3@PPy product. Moreover, when the rattle-type Fe3O4@C hollow microspheres were investigated as drug carrier, they manifested sustained-release behaviour of doxorubicin, justifying their promising applications as carriers in drug delivery. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The aim of the present study was first to synthesize rattle-type Fe3O4@C hollow microspheres through a simple synthesis method as a drug carrier. Here a chemical template synthesis of rattle-type hollow microspheres was developed, which saved the complex procedures including the coating and removal of middle shells in traditional physical template. Second, all the influence factors in the reaction processes were systematically investigated to obtain rattle-type Fe3O4@C hollow microspheres with controlled parameters. Third, the rattle-type Fe3O4@C hollow microspheres were studied as drug carriers and the influences of their structural parameters on drug loading and releasing performance were investigated.

Abstract
We report water-in-oil microemulsion mediated synthesis of PEG1 coated Gd2O3 NPs2 loaded with fluorescent anti-cancer drug dox3 for synchronous drug delivery, optical and MR4 imaging applications. These PEG covered Gd2O3 NPs loaded with dox (Gd-PEG-dox NPs) were found to possess spherical morphology with 13nm size as measured from TEM and the hydrodynamic diameter comes out to be 37nm as determined from DLS. Fluorescence spectra and fluorescence microscopy images confirmed optical activity of the NPs. The paramagnetic nature of NPs was affirmed by NMR line broadening effect on the spectrum of surrounding water protons. Therefore, these particles can be efficiently used as CA5 in MR imaging. In vitro analysis showed significant cellular uptake of particles by A-549 cells. A pH dependent drug release pattern was observed for the NPs. Cell viability assay performed on A-549, PANC-1 and U-87 cancerous cell lines revealed that Gd-PEG-dox NPs are cytotoxic. On the basis of these observations, it can be concluded that these multi-modal paramagnetic NPs promise potential cancer therapy along with optical and MR imaging applications.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive biomaterials offer a unique advantage over traditional local drug delivery systems in that the drug elution rate can be controllably increased to combat developing symptomology or maintain high local elution levels for disease treatment. In this study, superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and the antibiotic vancomycin were loaded into chitosan microbeads cross-linked with varying lengths of polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate. Beads were characterized using degradation, biocompatibility, and elution studies with successive magnetic stimulations at multiple field strengths and frequencies. Thirty-minute magnetic stimulation induced a temporary increase in daily elution rate of up to 45% that was dependent on field strength, field frequency and cross-linker length. Beads degraded by up to 70% after 3 days in accelerated lysozyme degradation tests, but continued to elute antibiotic for up to 8 days. No cytotoxic effects were observed in vitro compared to controls. These promising preliminary results indicate clinical potential for use in stimuli-controlled drug delivery.

Abstract
Polymeric nanogels have been widely explored for their potential application as delivery carriers for cancer therapeutics. The ability of nanogels to encapsulate therapeutics by simple diffusion mechanism and the ease of their fabrication to impart target specificity in addition to their ability to get internalized into target cells make them good candidates for drug delivery. The present study aims to investigate the applicability of poly(ethylene glycol)-co-methacrylamide-co-acrylic acid (PMA)-based nanogels as a viable option for the delivery of doxorubicin (DOX). The nanogels were synthesized by free radical polymerization in an inverse mini-emulsion and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. DOX was physically incorporated into the nanogels (PMA-DOX) and the mechanism of its in vitro release was studied. TEM experiment revealed spherical morphology of nanogels and the hydrodynamic diameter of the neat nanogels was in the range of 160 ± 46.95 nm. The size of the nanogels increased from 235.1 ± 28.46 to 403.7 ± 89.89 nm with the increase in drug loading capacity from 4.68 ± 0.03 to 13.71 ± 0.01%. The sustained release of DOX was observed upto 80 h and the release rate decreased with increased loading capacity following anomalous release mechanism as indicated by the value of diffusion exponent (n = 0.64-0.75) obtained from Korsmeyer-Peppas equation. Further, cytotoxicity evaluation of PMA-DOX nanogels on HeLa cells resulted in relatively higher efficacy (IC50~5.88 μg/mL) as compared to free DOX (IC50~7.24 μg/mL) thus demonstrating that the preparation is potentially a promising drug delivery carrier.

Abstract
The current study emphasizes the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) and impact of hydrophilic polymer polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) coating concentration as well as anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) loading on saturation magnetization for target drug delivery applications. Iron oxide nanoparticles particles were synthesized by a reformed version of the co-precipitation method. The coating of polyvinyl alcohol along with doxorubicin loading was carried out by the physical immobilization method. X-ray diffraction confirmed the magnetite (Fe3O4) structure of particles that remained unchanged before and after polyvinyl alcohol coating and drug loading. Microstructure and morphological analysis was carried out by transmission electron microscopy revealing the formation of nanoparticles with an average size of 10 nm with slight variation after coating and drug loading. Transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive, and Fourier transform infrared spectra further confirmed the conjugation of polymer and doxorubicin with iron oxide nanoparticles. The room temperature superparamagnetic behavior of polymer-coated and drug-loaded magnetite nanoparticles were studied by vibrating sample magnetometer. The variation in saturation magnetization after coating evaluated that a sufficient amount of polyvinyl alcohol would be 3 wt. % regarding the externally controlled movement of IONPs in blood under the influence of applied magnetic field for in-vivo target drug delivery.

Abstract
Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to present the preparation of core-shell ferrites/kaolin pigments and comparing their efficiency in protecting metal substrates to original ferrites which were also prepared. Core-shell structured particles are recently gaining lots of importance due to their exciting applications in different fields; these particles are constructed from cores and shells of different chemical compositions which show ultimately distinctive properties of varied materials different from their counterparts. The new core-shell pigment is based on shell of different ferrites that comprises only 10-20 per cent of the whole pigment on kaolin (cores) which is a cheap and abundant ore that comprises 80-90 per cent of the prepared pigment. The new pigments do not only comprise two different components, but they also contain pigment and extender in the same compound; their loadings in the paint formulations ranges from 50 and 75 per cent of the whole pigment. The work showed that these eco-friendly and cheap core-shell pigments are comparable in their efficiency to that of ferrites in protecting steel substrates.Design/methodology/approach– The different ferrites and ferrites/kaolin pigments were characterized using different analytical and spectrophotometric techniques, such as X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM/EDAX) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Evaluation of these pigments was done using international standard testing methods (ASTM). After evaluation, the pigments were incorporated in solvent-based paint formulations based on medium oil-modified soya-bean dehydrated castor oil alkyd resin. The physico-mechanical properties of dry films and their corrosion properties using accelerated laboratory test in 3.5 per cent NaCl for 28 days were determined.Findings– The results of this work revealed that ferrite/kaolin core-shell pigments were close in their performance to that of the ferrite pigments in protection of steel, and at the same time, they verified good physico-mechanical properties.Practical implications– Treated kaolin can be applied in many industries beside pigment manufacture and paint formulations; it can be applied as reinforcing filler in rubber, plastics and ceramic composites. Also, it is applied in paper filling, paper coatings and electrical insulation.Originality/value– Ferrite and ferrite/kaolin are environmentally friendly and can replace other hazardous pigments (e.g. chromates) with almost the same quality in their performance; also, they can be used in industries other than paints, for example paper, rubber and plastics composites.

Abstract
Nickel ferrite nanoparticles (NPs) have received much attention for their potential applications in biomedical fields such as magnetic resonance imaging, drug delivery and cancer hyperthermia. However, little is known about the toxicity of nickel ferrite NPs at the cellular and molecular levels. In this study, we investigated the cytotoxic responses of nickel ferrite NPs in two different types of human cells (i.e., liver HepG2 and breast MCF-7). Nickel ferrite NPs induced dose-dependent cytotoxicity in both types of cells, which was demonstrated by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT), neutral red uptake (NRU) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assays. Nickel ferrite NPs were also found to induce oxidative stress, which was evident by the depletion of glutathione and the induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation. The mitochondrial membrane potential due to nickel ferrite NP exposure was also observed. The mRNA levels for the tumor suppressor gene p53 and the apoptotic genes bax, CASP3 and CASP9 were up-regulated, while the anti-apoptotic gene bcl-2 was down-regulated following nickel ferrite NP exposure. Furthermore, the activities of apoptotic enzymes (caspase-3 and caspase-9) were also higher in both types of cells treated with nickel ferrite NPs. Cytotoxicity induced by nickel ferrite was efficiently prevented by N-acetyl cysteine (ROS scavenger) treatment, which suggested that oxidative stress might be one of the possible mechanisms of nickel ferrite NP toxicity. We also observed that MCF-7 cells were slightly more susceptible to nickel ferrite NP exposure than HepG2 cells. This study warrants further investigation to explore the potential mechanisms of different cytotoxic responses of nickel ferrite NPs in different cell lines.

Abstract
Treatment of approximately 50% of human cancers includes the use of chemotherapy. The major problem associated with chemotherapy is the inability to deliver pharmaceuticals to specific site of the body without inducing normal tissue toxicity. Latterly, magnetic targeted drug delivery (MTD) has been used to improve the therapeutic performance of the chemotherapeutic agents and reduce the severe side effects associated with the conventional chemotherapy for malignant tumors. In this study, we were focused on designing biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles that can be used as a nanocarrier's candidate for MTD regimen. Magnetic gold nanoparticles (MGNPs) were prepared and functionalized with thiol-terminated polyethylene glycol (PEG), then loaded with anti-cancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). The physical properties of the prepared NPs were characterized using different techniques. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the spherical mono-dispersed nature of the prepared MGNPs with size about 22 nm. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) assured the existence of both iron and gold elements in the prepared nanoparticles. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy assessment revealed that PEG and DOX molecules were successfully loaded on the MGNPs surfaces, and the amine group of DOX is the active attachment site to MGNPs. In vivo studies proved that magnetic targeted drug delivery can provide a higher accumulation of drug throughout tumor compared with that delivered by passive targeting. This clearly appeared in tumor growth inhibition assessment, biodistribution of DOX in different body organs in addition to the histopathological examinations of treated and untreated Ehrlich carcinoma. To assess the in vivo toxic effect of the prepared formulations, several biochemical parameters such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), urea, uric acid and creatinine were measured. MTD technology not only minimizes the random distribution of the chemotherapeutic agents, but also reduces their side effects to healthy tissues, which are the two primary concerns in conventional cancer therapies.
