PLGA-Based Nano-Encapsulation of Trachyspermum Ammi Seed Essential Oil (TSEO-PNP) as a Safe, Natural, Efficient, Anticancer Compound in Human HT-29 Colon Cancer Cell Line.

PLGA-Based Nano-Encapsulation of Trachyspermum Ammi Seed Essential Oil (TSEO-PNP) as a Safe, Natural, Efficient, Anticancer Compound in Human HT-29 Colon Cancer Cell Line. Nutr Cancer. 2020 Dec 15;:1-13 Authors: Almnhawy M, Jebur M, Alhajamee M, Marai K, Tabrizi MH Abstract Colorectal cancer is a lethal and commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. To halt its burden more efficient targeted strategies are needed. Trachyspermum ammi seed essential oil (TSEO) contains several anticancer phytochemicals that maybe more effective via PLGA-based nano-encapsulation. TSEO-PNP nanoparticles were synthesized utilizing evaporation and ultra-sonication-based emulsification methods. Their size, morphology, and stability were defined by DLS, SEM, and surface zeta-potential data, respectively. The TSEO-PNP antioxidant apoptotic, cytotoxic, and antiangiogenic impacts on both cell lines (HT-29 and HUVEC) were studied by FRAP/ABTS, Q-PCR, MTT, and CAM assays, respectively. Moreover, further confirmatory measurements such as AO/EB fluorescent staining and flow cytometry analysis were performed to verify apoptosis. Stable (-32.42 mV) 206.21-nm TSEO-PNP induced apoptosis in the HT-29 cells. Apoptosis was confirmed by significant overexpression of apoptotic genes (Cas-9 and BAX), down-regulation of the anti-apoptotic (BCL-2) gene, fluorescent AO/EB staining, and flow cytometry data following increased TSEO-PNP treatment doses. TSEO-PNP exhibited a meaningful...
