| Abstract | Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) are potential drug carriers and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent for cancer therapy and diagnosis. In this study, dechlorinated cisplatin (CMDP) is tethered to maghemite nanoparticles modified with 4-oxo-4-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propylamino)butanoic acid (OTPBA–SPION) through the surface carboxylate groups. The nanocomposite (CMDP–OTPBA–SPION) was characterized by TEM, XPS, EDX, SQUID, ICP-AES, and zeta potential. A relatively high Pt loading capacity (ca. 13%) is achieved with this drug delivery system. The DNA binding ability of CMDP–OTPBA–SPION is prominent in acidic medium (pH 5.2) but is insignificant under normal physiological conditions (pH 7.4), suggesting that an acidic cancerous environment is favourable for the release of the platinum pharmacophore from the composite. The transverse relaxivity of CMDP–OTPBA–SPION in phosphate-buffered saline is 141.9 mM−1 s−1 in terms of Fe concentration, implying that the composite could be used as a negative-contrast agent for MRI. The cytotoxicity of the composite toward MCF-7 and HeLa cancer cells displays slow and time-dependent characteristics, reaching a level comparable to that of cisplatin at 72 h. The diagnostic capability and tumor-specific accumulation of the composite are verified in vitro and in vivo by the time-dependent negative-contrast enhancement effect in MRI using MCF-7 cells and tumor-bearing mice, respectively. The results demonstrate that CMDP–OTPBA–SPION can potentially be used as an anticancer theranostic agent for simultaneous targeted therapy and MRI under an external magnetic field. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
