| Abstract | We developed a new magnetic nanovector to improve the efficiency and targeting of transgene therapy for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Positively charged polymer PEI-modified Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$ magnetic nanoparticles were tested as gene transfer vectors in the presence of a magnetic field. The Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$ nanoparticles were prepared by a co-precipitation method and had good dispersibility in water. These nanoparticles modified by PEI were combined with negatively charged pACTERT-EGFP via electrostatic interaction. The transfection efficiency of the magnetic nano-gene vector with the magnetic field was determined by a fluorescence-inverted microscope and flow cytometry. The results showed significant improvement compared with the control group (p < 0.05). The magnetic complexes also exhibited up to 6-times higher transfection efficiency compared with commonly used PEI or lipofectin. On the basis of these results, the antitumor effect with suicide gene therapy using pACTERT-TRAIL in vitro and vivo was evaluated. In vitro apoptosis was determined with the Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit. The results suggested that PEI-modified Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$ nanoparticles could mediate the killing of Tca83 cells. Furthermore, treatment with pACTERT-TRAIL delivered by magnetic nanoparticles showed a significant cytostatic effect through the induction of apoptosis in a xenograft model. This indicates that magnetic nano-gene vectors could improve the transgene efficiency for Tca83 cells and could exhibit antitumor functions with the plasmid pACTERT-TRAIL. This may be a new way to treat OSCC. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
