Abstract
There has been a growth in the use of plant compounds as biological products for the prevention and treatment of various diseases, including cancer. As a phenolic compound, p-Coumaric acid (p-CA) demonstrates preferrable biological effects such as anti-cancer activities. A nano-liposomal carrier containing p-CA was designed to increase the anticancer effectiveness of this compound on melanoma cells (A375). To determine the characteristics of synthesized liposomes, encapsulation efficiency was measured. In addition, the particle size was measured utilizing DLS, FTIR, and morphology examination using SEM. In vitro release was also studied through the dialysis method, while toxicity was evaluated using the MTT assay. To determine apoptotic characteristics, biotechnology tools like flow cytometry, real time PCR, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were employed. The findings indicated that in the cells treated with the liposomal form of p-CA, the amount of elastic modulus was higher compared to its free form. Kinetic modeling indicated that the best fitting model was zero-order.
