Prostate Cancer Cellular Uptake of Ternary Titanate Nanotubes/CuFe 2 O 4 /Zn-Fe Mixed Metal Oxides Nanocomposite

摘要

Background: Certainly, there is a demand for stronger recognition of how nanoparticles can move through the cell membrane. Prostate cancer is one of the forcing sources of cancer-relevant deaths among men. Aim of the Work: The current research studied the power of prostate cancer cells to uptake a ternary nanocomposite TNT/CuFesub 2/subOsub 4/sub/Zn-Fe mixed metal oxides (MMO). Methodology: The nanocomposite was synthesized by a chemical method and characterized by a High-resolution transmission electron microscope, Field emission scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transmission infra-red, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering. Besides, it was implemented as an inorganic anticancer agent versus Prostate cancer PC-3 cells. Results: The results revealed cellular uptake validity, cell viability reduction, ultra-structures alterations, morphological changes and membrane damage of PC-3 cells. Conclusion: The prepared ternary nanocomposite was highly uptake by PC-3 cells and possessed cytotoxicity that was dose and time-dependent. To conclude, the study offered the potential of the investigated ternary nanocomposite as a promising prostate anticancer agent.
