RESUMO

The current study focuses on developing a tumour-targeted functionalised nanocarrier that wraps hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles. The guanidine carbonate and curcumin are immobilised on the surface of 3-aminopropyl-triethoxy silane (APTES)-decorated hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNP), as confirmed through XPS and NMR analysis. XPS analysis demonstrates that the shape of the hysteresis loops is modified and that pore volume and pore diameter are consequently decreased compared to control. Guanidine (85%) and guanidine-curcumin complex (90%) were successfully encapsulated in HMSNAP and showed a 90% effective and sustained release at pH 7.4 for up to 72 h. Acridine orange/ethidium bromide dual staining determined that GuC-HMNSAP induced more late apoptosis and necrosis at 48 and 72 h compared with Gu-HMNSAP-treated cells. Molecular investigation of guanidine-mediated apoptosis was analysed using western blotting. It was found that cleaved caspases, c-PARP, and GSK-3ß (Ser9) had increased activity in MCF-7 cells. GuC-HMSNAP increased the activity of phosphorylation of oncogenic proteins such as Akt (Ser473), c-Raf (Ser249), PDK1 (Ser241), PTEN (Ser380), and GSK-3ß (Ser9), thus inducing cell death in MCF-7 cells. Altogether, our findings confirm that GuC-HMNSAP induces cell death by precisely associating with tumour-suppressing proteins, which may lead to new therapeutic approaches for breast cancer therapy.
