Title of your Abstract : Magnetic hyperthermia and MR imaging using G4 PAMAM dendrimer coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles
Destination Country : Mexico
From : Saturday, April 29, 2017
To : Tuesday, May 2, 2017
Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : Introduction:
Recently, hyperthermia has been increasingly applied in the cancer treatment since it has favourable advantages compared with other treatments including chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles are used in magnetic bioseperation, clinical diagnosis and therapy including MRI and magnetic hyperthermia thanks to their very low toxicity and good biocompatibility. The polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer coated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles(MNPs) have internal cavities makes them suitable for application in multidisciplinary cancer treatments. In this study, we assessed efficiency of G4 PAMAM coated Fe3O4 NPs(PAMAM@Fe3O4) in magnetic hyperthermia and MR imaging.
Method and materials:
Fe3O4 MNPs were synthesized by coprecipitation of Fe3+ and Fe2+ solution followed by surface modification with PAMAM dendrimers. The morphology and properties of obtained nanoparticles were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, TEM and DLS. The PAMAM@Fe3O4 NPs displayed relatively high magneto-temperature response which could be applied to hyperthermia therapy. In vivo and in vitro toxicity was assessed as well as hemolysis. The relaxivity values (r1, r2) were estimated using a linear fit to R1 and R2 versus nanoparticles concentration curves, respectively.
Results
The size of nanoparticles was approximately 10nm and the result of DLS shown 108nm hydrodynamic size. The temperature rising of NP samples measured in two frequencies of 200 and 300kHz and intensity of 12kA/m. The introduced SAR increased by increasing frequency and NPs concentration and the outcomes revealed that these MNPs could be promising materials for local hyperthermia. The toxicity of PAMAM@Fe3O4 NPs was negligible, the renal and hepatic factors in blood as well as blood proteins did not change significantly in selected NPs concentrations used in chronic and acute toxicity in bulb-c mice. The highest amount of Hemolysis was only 8% in at NPs concentration of 1 mg/ml. Longitudinal and transverse relativities were 4.17 s-1mM-1 and 139.12 s-1mM-1, respectively.
Discussion
There are some studies focused on PAMAM@Fe3O4 NPs as an MRI contrast agent or a vehicle for drug delivery. Considering to suitable magnetization properties of these NPs, we decided to investigate them in magnetic hyperthermia. For clinical use, NPs must be toxic as low as possible. Our results shown that PAMAM@Fe3O4 NPs were very low toxic in cancer and normal cell lines and this is due to dendrimer coating of NPs and PEGylation. Because of dendrimers superior properties in MRI and drug delivery, they can be suitable candidate to consider as an appropriate coating for magnetite NPs using in magnetic hyperthermia.
