Abstract
Purpose: Poly lactic acid (PLA) combined with cisplatin-chloroquine nanoparticles (CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs) and PLA combined with cisplatin nanoparticles (CDDP-PLA NPs) were prepared to investigate their inhibitory effects on the proliferation of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) Cal-27cell line.Patients and methods: We prepared CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs and CDDP-PLA NPs. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were used to detect the physiological characteristics and particle size parameters of drug-loaded nanoparticles. The drug concentration and cumulative release were measured by UV and visible spectrophotometer. MTT assay was used to detect viability of Cal-27 cells. Annexin/PI staining was used to detect cell apoptosis. Biological kits were used to detect malondialdehyde (MDA) content, catalase (CAT) activity, antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and glutathione peroxidase (GSH PX) activity in Cal-27 cells. Western blot was used to detect apoptosis and autophagy of Cal-27 cells.Results: CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs and CDDP -PLA NPs had good drug loaded nanoparticles and drug release. CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs showed higher ROS and apoptosis rate, and lower autophagy than CDDP-PLA NPs.Conclusion: CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs reduced autophagy and enhanced ROS and apoptosis of Cal-27 cells, which shows a potential in the clinical treatment of OSCC.
