    Abstract Introduction: Nanotechnology always seeks to provide new solutions for targeted delivery of chemotherapy drugs, in order to increase the quality of cancer treatment and reduce the side effects of chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to load the anticancer drug doxorubicin on Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were subjected to physico-chemical evaluation for their effect on MCF-7 cells. Methods: This research was a descriptive-analytical study. In this laboratory research, iron oxide nanoparticles were first synthesized by precipitation method. Then they were coated with polyethylene imine and gold. After loading the drug doxorubicin into the magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, the physiochemical parameters of the nanosystem from the point of view of insertion efficiency, drug release profile under similar conditions of healthy and cancer cells, size, zeta potential and morphology were determined. Results: The magnetic nanocarriers had a diameter of 90 nm and a zeta potential of 66.7 mV. The maximum release of the drug from the nanosystem at 37°C, pH=7.4 and 42°C, pH=5.4 and after 48 hourswas 48% and 66%, respectively. The SEM analysis showed the spherical morphology and the absence of chemical interaction between the nanosystem and the drug. The investigation of the performance of the nanosystem indicated an increase in the toxicity of encapsulated doxorubicin compared to free doxorubicin at similar concentrations on the MCF_7 strain. Conclusion: The results of this research showed that the magnetic iron oxide nanoparticle system, while having appropriate physiochemical characteristics, does not change the chemical nature of the drug and can be a suitable and semi-targeted carrier for the anticancer drug doxorubicin.

    Abstract In this study we synthesized and characterized nanoniosome containing Hedera Helix extract to evaluate its therapeutic properties on breast cancer cells in order to provide a new effective treatment strategy with low side effects for the treatment of this malignancy in the clinical stage. After extracting the Hedera helix by Soxhlet method, different formulations of noisomes containing the extract were synthesized and after investigating the load and release rate of the drug by spectrophotometry, the optimal formulation was selected. Then other physiochemical properties of nanosystems such as size and zeta potential by DLS method, system interaction and extract by FTIR method, system response to temperature and pH stimuli by spectrophotometry, nanoparticle morphology using SEM and AFM microscope, the stability of nanoparticles over 6 months and the antimicrobial properties of the system compared to the free form of extract were examined. Finally, the cellular uptake of nanosystem by flow cytometry microscope and its toxicity on MCF-7 and BT-474 breast cancer cell lines, MCF-10A breast normal cell line and HFF cell line were evaluated by MTT method. Results showed that the synthesized nanosystems with a size of 75.1 nm and PDI of 0.345 with a zeta potential of -20.6 ± 0.44 mV were morphologically suitable and had no interaction between niosomes and extracts. Also, the Encapsulation Efficiency in the system was 80.1 ± 2.2% and the drug release rate from the nanosystem was 57.2% in 72 hours. The stability of the system during 6 months and the response of the system to various stimuli was also appropriate. Also, encapsulation of the extract not only improved its antimicrobial properties compared to the extract, but also increased its anti-cancer effect on cancer cells although the nanosystem had no toxic effect on normal cells.

    Abstract Introduction: Loading the active ingredients of medicinal plants in lipid nanoparticles reduces the reaction of the active substance with the surrounding environment, such as water and oxygen, and reduces the intensity of transmission or evaporation to the external environment. In this study, intended to enhance efficacy of ginger extract, encapsulation in nanoliponiosome synthesized by thin-film hydration method were done and their antifungal effect on the growth of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus were studied. Methods: In this experimental laboratory study, derivation was done using Soxhlet extractor method. Antifungal activity of ginger extract was specific by disc diffusion and microplate dilution methods. The inhibitory effect of extract was investigated. Physiochemical characteristics and structural characterization of nanoparticle were evaluated from the perspective of in vitro efficiency, drug release, nanoparticle size, zeta potential, surface morphology and FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy), DLS (Dynamic light scattering) and finally SEM (Scanning electron microscope) spectra. Results: FTIR investigations showed ginger extract and nanoliponiosome had no chemical interaction leading to change the functional groups. SEM microscope showed the spherical mprphology of particles and average particles size of 73nm. Ginger extract was loaded into the nanoliponiosome with a yield of 71%. It was also found out that ginger extract had a stronger antifungal effect against Aspergillus flavus fungus compared to the Aspergillus parasiticus fungus. At both 37°C and 42°C, the release of ginger extract was higher at pH of 4.5 compared to neutral pH (7.4). Conclusion: Nanoliponiosomes containing ginger extract with good physicochemical properties, increased drug stability and good release control can be promising antifungal agents with high antifungal effects and low side effects.

Methods: The present study was an experimental study. Five Lipo-Niosome systems with different formulations containing DPPC, Cholesterol, and Span60 were synthesized using thin-film method. Three formulations were chosen based on the entrapped efficiency of curcumin and their release profile was investigated in order to choose the final formula. In the following, the final formula was optimized by DSPE-mPEG(2000) and after calculating, the curcumin release profile in simulated environment of healthy and cancerous cells; physiochemical characteristics of the final formula determined by ZetaSizer, FTIR and SEM instruments. Results: Final formulation of curcumin PEGylated lipo-niosome had 147.5 nm size, 98.12%±1.85 entrapment, -8.90 mV zeta potential, and 0.176 of PDI. The maximum release of the drug for this nanosystem in an environment similar to healthy cells was 19.02% and 24.88% in cancerous cells. FTIR and SEM investigations show drug and nanocarrier had no chemical interaction leading to change the functional groups and its particles have a spherical morphology. Conclusion: The findings of this study along with confirming the system to be semi-targeting, shows that carrier released entrapped drug with continuous and controlled rate without any change in chemical nature of the drug. It appears the nanoscale size and the low anionic charge of the system is an indication of its high cellular uptake.

    Abstract Introdution: Cationic liposomes have been presented for gene delivery as an alternative vector instead of viral vectors. A major challenge associated with siRNA delivery is the instability of liposomes, which is still a serious problem. The aim of this study was to provide an appropriate formulation to overcome this instability. Methods: In the present study (Scientific-Fundamental, Experimental-Laboratory Study), liposomal formulation containing soy phosphatidylcholine, cationic DOTAP, cholesterol and polyethylene glycole was synthesized by thin-film hydration method and the siRNA were loaded on liposomes through incubation. In the following; the optimization of siRNA loading was on the agenda. Then the parameters related to size, zeta potential, polydispersity index and lon-term stability of siRNA-liposomes complex were reported. The Data were analyzed by GraphPad Prism version 7 Software. All data were repeated three times and reported as mean±standard deviation. Results: In this study we were able to produce siRNA lipoplex with high loading efficiency of siRNA. The produced nanoparticles did not agglomerate and were stable at 4 oC for 3 months. This nanosystem could successfully deliver siRNA to normal bone cells. Studies have shown that the blank system (no gene) had no toxicity. Conclusion: The prepared PEGylated liposomes have a great potential for delivery of siRNA to bone cells

    Abstract Introdution: Doxorubicin is one of the most commonly used drugs in chemotherapy with many side effects; this fact has limited its use. In the present study, based on the knowledge of pharmaceutical nanocarriers, various formulations of the niosomal form of this drug were synthesized and surface optimizations were applied to the final selected formulation. Methods: The present study was an experimental study. Various formulations of niosomal systems were synthesized by the method of thin-film hydration and using Tween60 and cholesterol. Doxorubicin was encapsulated through niosome inactively. In the following, optimizations were made based on choosing two formulas out of six experimentally, then the effects of adding Tween20, DSPE-mPEG(2000) polymer and cationic phospholipid of DOTAP (respectively) was investigated. Then, physiochemical properties of nanocarriers were determined from the perspective of encapsulation efficiency, drug release profile under healthy and cancerous cells condition, hydrodynamic diameter, Poly Dispersity Index, zeta potential, morphology and Infrared spectroscopy(IR) spectrum. To plot the graphs and express the data Origin and Excel software were used, respectively. Results: The optimized final niosome formula had 98.59 nm in diameter, 91.8±0.43, -3.5mV zeta potential and 0.196 PDI. The maximum release of drug from the nanocarrier under conditions of healthy and cancerous cells (37°C, pH=7.4 and 42°C, pH=5.4) after 48 hours was 62.3% and 76.5% respectively. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope and IR assessments revealed spherical morphology and the absence of chemical interaction between nanocarrier and drug. Conclusion: The findings of this study prove this drug carrier to be semi-targeting. It also shows that niosome by specializing the drug delivery increases the effectiveness of drug and the life quality of patient while reducing the side effects, all without any change in the chemical nature of the drug.
