Abstract

Retinoblastoma is a malignant growth affecting retina. An original combination of modified Non-Markov and Gompertzian computational approaches is proven of being a reliable tool for prediction of tumor selective accumulation of the bivalent metal isotopes (25Mg, 43Ca, 60Co, 67Zn, …) — releasing nanoparticles in human retinoblastoma cells. This mathematical model operates with a starting point of the discriminative drug uptake caused by a gap-like distinction between the neighboring malignant and normal cell proliferation rates. This takes into account both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic peculiarities of PMC16, fullerene-C60 based nanoparticles, known for their unique capabilities for a cancer-targeted delivery of paramagnetic metal isotopes followed by an essential chemotherapeutic effect. Being dependent on a tumor growth rate but not on the neoplasm steady state mass, a randomized level of drug accumulation in retinoblastoma cells has been formalized as a predictive paradigm suitable to optimize an ongoing PMC16 preclinical research.

  • Human retinoblastoma (RB) is found to be very sensitive to some metal paramagnetic isotopes due their ability to promote a so called magnetic isotope effects which, in turn, promotes a sharp inhibition of DNA repair in malignant cells along with a formation of shorted, and DNA repair inconsistent, DNA sequences [1,2,3,4]. This might be taken as a “hopeful pullout” for coming up with a new element in RB chemotherapy based on administration of 25Mg2+, 43Ca2+, 60Co2+, 67Zn2+ carrying/ releasing nanoparticles (NPs) once the RB cell does overexpresses the DNA Polymerase Beta, a target enzyme for the nuclear spin selective DNA repair [1, 5, 6]

  • The treatment efficacy is a nonmonotonic function of the relation between the cell generation time and the period of drug administration, with maximal occurring when the limiting host cell cycle length is a multiple of the chemotherapeutic period

Human retinoblastoma (RB) is found to be very sensitive to some metal paramagnetic isotopes due their ability to promote a so called magnetic isotope effects which, in turn, promotes a sharp inhibition of DNA repair in malignant cells along with a formation of shorted, and DNA repair inconsistent, DNA sequences [1,2,3,4] This might be taken as a “hopeful pullout” for coming up with a new element in RB chemotherapy based on administration of 25Mg2+, 43Ca2+, 60Co2+, 67Zn2+ carrying/ releasing nanoparticles (NPs) once the RB cell does overexpresses the DNA Polymerase Beta, a target enzyme for the nuclear spin selective DNA repair [1, 5, 6]. As a sign of such paramagnetic impacts, a significant decrease of proliferation rates has been observed in Y79 and WERI-RB-1 retinoblastoma cell strains [2,3,4]
