چکیده
امروزه با پیشرفت نانوفن‌آوری، می­توان نانو موادی با عدد اتمی بالا، نظیر نانو ذرات طلا، را به روش‌­های مختلفی به طور اختصاصی در سلول­‌های توموری متمرکز کرد و از مزیت افزایش دز ناشی از مجاورت این عنصر دارای عدد اتمی بالا در کنار سلول­‌های سرطانی به عنوان یک حساس­‌کننده­‌ی پرتویی بهره برد. در این پژوهش نانو ذرات طلا با قطر میانگین 50 نانومتر سنتز و با مولکول فولیک اسید یکی شد. این کمپلکس به مدت 24 ساعت و در غلظت­‌های مختلف با سلول­‌های MCF-7 گرماگذاری شده و میزان سمیّت‌­زایی آن مورد مطالعه قرار گرفت. نتایج نشان داد که افزایش غلظت نانو ذرات طلا به بالاتر از حد مشخصی می­‌تواند سلامت سلولی را تحت تأثیر قرار دهد. میزان حساس­‌کنندگی پرتویی نانو ذرات طلا با غلظت 50 میکروگرم بر میلی­لیتر در سلول­‌های MCF-7  تحت 2 گری پرتو ایکس از یک دستگاه پرتو درمانی ارتوولتاژ در انرژی­‌های مختلف 120, 180, 200 کیلو ولت بیشینه و با استفاده از روش MTT ارزیابی شد. اختلاف معناداری در میزان بقا در گروه‌­های تابش‌­دهی شده در حضور و عدم حضور نانو ذرات طلا مشاهده شد. بیش­ترین مقدار ضریب افزایش دز برابر با 1.34±0.03 برای باریکه­‌ی پرتو ایکس 180 کیلو ولت بیشینه به دست آمد. یافته‌­های این پژوهش این امکان را می‌­دهد که با اعمال کاهش دزی به میزان یک سوم دز تجویزی، اثر مشابه‌ی، از آسیب سلولی، در سلول­‌های سرطانی هم­زمان با محافظت بیش‌­تر از بافت‌­های سالم در معرض خطر، در مجاورت هدف ایجاد شود.

چکیده English

Recent dvances in nanotechnology have enabled us to accumulate high atomic-number nano-materials, such as gold nanoparticles (GNPs), in tumor cells selectively using different techniques and take the advantage of the dose enhancement factor resulting from the presence of such high-Z elements as the vicinity of cancerous cells as a radiosensitizer agent. In this research, the GNPs with an average diameter of 50nm were synthesized and conjugated with folic acid. Different concentrations of this nanoconjugate were incubated with MCF-7 cells for 24 hours and its cytotoxicity was investigated. The results showed that increasing the nanoconjugate concentration up to a critical amount, affects the cells viability. The radiosensitizing effect of the folate nanoconjugate, with a concentration of 50μg/mL, on the MCF-7 cells was assessed under 2Gy of x-ray radiation, generated by an orthhovoltage radiotherapy machine, at various energies of 120, 180, 200 kVp, using the MTT assay. Significant differences in the cell survival were noted among the groups exposed to x-ray radiation with and without the nanoconjugate. A maximum dose enhancement factor of 1.34±0.03 was obtained for the 180kVp X-ray beam. The findings enable us to decrease by one third of the prescribed dose while having the same level of damage to cancer cells. Also, this dose reduction results in lower exposure to the normal tissues located close to the target.
