In this study, different types of magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized for treatment of breast cancer by targeted drug delivery. Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer, Chitosan (CS) and Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) coated magnetic nanoparticles were prepared and loaded with Gemcitabine. The loading efficiency of drug for various half generations of dendrimer coated magnetic nanoparticles (DcMNPs), Chitosan coated magnetic nanoparticles (CSMNPs) and Polyhydroxybutyrate magnetic nanoparticles (PHB-MNPs) were investigated in different solvents. The results were confirmed by spectrophotometric, FT-IR, XPS, Zeta-potential and TEM analyses. The release and stability of Gemcitabine from the nanoparticles at various pH were investigated. The release studies were shown Gemcitabine release was higher at pH 4.2 compared to pH 5.2. The stability results indicated that Gemcitabine conjugated nanoparticles were highly stable. The cytotoxicities of drug free nanoparticles and Gemcitabine loaded nanoparticles were determined with proliferation assays (XTT) using SKBR-3 and MCF-7 cell lines. DcMNPs, CSMNPs and PHB-MNPs were not cytotoxic by themselves. When the drug was loaded on DCMNPs, CSMNPs and PHB-MNPs, the antiproliferative effect of the drug increased. IC50 values of drugs remarkably decreased 6, 1.4 and 2 folds on SKBR-3 and 3, 2.6 and 2 folds on MCF-7 cell lines, when conjugated to DcMNPs, CSMNPs and PHB-MNPs, respectively. Considering the fact that the synthesized bare magnetic nanoparticles were not cytotoxic and Gemcitabine loaded nanoparticles exhibited higher antiproliferative activity than free drug in vitro, we suggested that these nanoparticles can be a promising candidate for the development of novel targeted drug delivery systems.

The Synthesis and characterization of doxorubicin and bortezomib loaded magnetic nanoparticles for targeting tumor cells Ünsoy, Gözde; Gündüz, Ufuk; Budak, Güven Gürer; Department of Biotechnology (2013) Chitosan superparamagnetic nanoparticles, loaded with Doxorubicin and Bortezomib were synthesized for treatment of breast and cervical cancers by targeted drug delivery. In vitro cytotoxicity analyses revealed that the efficacy of drugs was highly increased when applied as loaded on nanoparticles. Chitosan superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (CSMNPs) were in-situ synthesized at different sizes by ionic crosslinking method. The characterization of nanoparticles was performed by XRD, XPS/ESCA, FTIR, TE...
Synthesis of Doxorubicin loaded magnetic chitosan nanoparticles for pH responsive targeted drug delivery ÜNSOY, GÖZDE; Khodadust, Rouhollah; Yalcin, Serap; Mutlu, Pelin; Gündüz, Ufuk (2014-10-01) Targeted drug delivery is a promising alternative to overcome the limitations of classical chemotherapy. In an ideal targeted drug delivery system carrier nanoparticles would be directed to the tumor tissue and selectively release therapeutic molecules. As a novel approach, chitosan coated magnetic nanoparticles (CS MNPs) maintain a pH dependent drug delivery which provides targeting of drugs to the tumor site under a magnetic field. Among various materials, chitosan has a great importance as a pH sensitive...
Tailoring the magnetic behavior of polymeric particles for bioapplications YAKAR, ARZU; Tansik, Gulistan; Keskin, Tugba; Gündüz, Ufuk (2013-05-01) In this study, magnetic polymeric nanoparticles were prepared use in for targeted drug delivery. First, iron oxide (Fe3O4) magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized by coprecipitation with ferrous and ferric chloride salts. Then, to render the MNPs hydrophobic, the surfaces were covered with oleic acid. Finally, the hydrophobic MNPs (H-MNPs) were encapsulated with polymer. The emulsion evaporation technique was used for the preparation of polymer-coated H-MNP. Poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and c...
Characterization of Gemcitabine Loaded Polyhydroxybutyrate Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles for Targeted Drug Delivery Parsian, Maryam; Mutlu, Pelin; Yalcin, Serap; Gündüz, Ufuk (2020-01-01) Background: Targeted drug delivery is one of the recent hot topics in cancer therapy. Because of having a targeting potential under the magnetic field and a suitable surface for the attachment of different therapeutic moieties, magnetic nanoparticles are widely studied for their applications in medicine.
Investigation of in vitro cytotoxic effects of heparin coated iron oxide nanoparticles combined with tpp-dca on human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HEPG2 Saraç, Başak Ezgi; Güray, Nülüfer Tülün; Volkan, Mürvet; Department of Biology (2018) Nanotechnology in medicine involves the applications of nanoparticles and one of the rising field is cancer nanotechnology, which has been increasingly used in cancer diagnostics, imaging, and therapeutic drug delivery. The advantage of the use of the nanoparticles is that, they can be designed to be specific for tumor tissue. This allows increased drug delivery efficiency and reduced off-target toxicities. Iron oxide nanoparticles used in this study are smaller than 100 nm but still it gives an enhanced su...
