摘要
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as the most excellent anticancer theranostic nanoparticles were synthesized through efficient, simple, and green synthesis method using Marsdenia tenacissima plant extracts and they are widely characterized by several techniques including ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometers (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. From the AuNPs synthesized by M. tenacissima extracts, it was discovered that particle size around 50?nm, which is admirable nano dimension, was achieved by plant-mediated synthesis. After characterization of these nanoparticles, they performed as in vitro anticancer activity against lung cancer cell lines (A549). MTT assay revealed that AuNPs produce toxicity based on the dose-dependent A549 cells growth inhibition. AuNPs treatment activates caspase expression and down-regulates the anti-apoptotic protein expression in A549 cells. Our results point out that the AuNPs from M. tenacissima extract are apposite stabilizing agents, which serve as an effective anticancer agent against lung cancer cell lines (A549).
