Abstract
In the current research, dye-embedded polylactic acid (PLA) conjugate materials were synthesized using one-pot ring-opening polymerization (ROP), i.e., (dtHPLA) (2-[(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) imino]-1(2H)-acenaphthylenone-reduced-PLA) and (dmHPLA) (monoiminoacenaphtheneone-reduced-PLA), and then, nanoparticles (NPs) were engineered in the size range of 150 ± 30 nm. P(dtHPLA) NPs were employed in the treatment of melanoma, an aggressive type of skin cancer, which mandates the development of novel techniques to enhance healing outcomes and eliminate adverse effects related to existing treatments. In addition to exhibiting strong intracellular absorption in the spheroid model, the P(dtHPLA) NPs exhibited a strong cytotoxic effect on B16F10 cells, which resulted in oxidative stress from the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell death. Additionally, a live/dead experiment using P(dtHPLA) NPs revealed a notable reduction in cell viability.
