In Vitro Superparamagnetic Hyperthermia Employing Magnetite Gamma-Cyclodextrin Nanobioconjugates for Human Squamous Skin Carcinoma Therapy.

ABSTRACT: In vitro alternative therapy of human epidermoid squamous carcinoma (A431) by superparamagnetic hyperthermia (SPMHT) using Fe₃O₄ (magnetite) superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SPIONs) with an average diameter of 15.8 nm, bioconjugated with hydroxypropyl gamma-cyclodextrins (HP-γ-CDs) by means of polyacrylic acid (PAA) biopolymer, is presented in this paper. The therapy was carried out at a temperature of 43 °C for 30 min using the concentrations of Fe₃O₄ ferrimagnetic nanoparticles from nanobioconjugates of 1, 5, and 10 mg/mL nanoparticles in cell suspension, which were previously found by us to be non-toxic for healthy cells (cell viabilities close to 100%), according to ISO standards (cell viability must be greater than 70%). The temperature for
