Biomimetic synthesis of silver nanoparticles from Streptomyces atrovirens and their potential anticancer activity against human breast cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been undeniable for its antimicrobial activity while its antitumour potential is still limited. Therefore, the present study focused on determining cytotoxic effects of AgNPs on Michigan cancer foundation-7 (MCF-7) breast cancer cells and its corresponding mechanism of cell death. Herein, the authors developed a bio-reduction method for AgNPs synthesis using actinomycetes isolated from marine soil sample. The isolated strain was identified by 16s ribotyping method and it was found to be Streptomyces atrovirens. Furthermore, the synthesised AgNPs were characterised by various bio-analytical techniques such as ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer, atomic force microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Moreover, the results of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay reveals 44.51 µg of AgNPs to have profound inhibition of cancer cell growth; furthermore, the inhibition of MCF-7 breast cancer cell line was found to be dose dependent on treatment with AgNPs. Acridine orange and ethidium bromide double staining methods were performed for cell morphological analysis. The present results showed that biosynthesised AgNPs might be emerging alternative biomaterials for human breast cancer therapy.

Project description:Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) have a unique mode of action as antibacterial agents in addition to their anticancer and antioxidant properties. In this study, microbial nanotechnology is employed to synthesize Ag-NPs using the cell filtrate of Streptomyces enissocaesilis BS1. The synthesized Ag-NPs are confirmed by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Also, the effects of different factors on Ag-NPs synthesis were evaluated to set the optimum synthesis conditions. Also, the antibacterial, antibiofilm, and anticancer activity of Ag-NPs was assessed. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the crystalline nature of the sample and validated that the crystal structure under consideration is a face-centered cubic (FCC) pattern. The TEM examination displayed the spherical particles of the Ag-NPs and their average size, which is 32.2 nm. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed significant changes in functionality after silver nanoparticle dispersion, which could be attributed to the potency of the cell filtrate of Streptomyces enissocaesilis BS1 to act as both a reducing agent and a capping agent. The bioactivity tests showed that our synthesized Ag-NPs exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against different pathogenic strains. Also, when the preformed biofilms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027, Salmonella typhi ATCC 12023, Escherichia coli ATCC 8739, and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6598 were exposed to Ag NPs 50 mg/ml for 24 hours, the biofilm biomass was reduced by 10.7, 34.6, 34.75, and 39.08%, respectively. Furthermore, the Ag-NPs showed in vitro cancer-specific sensitivity against human breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines and colon cancer cell line Caco-2, and the IC50 was 0.160 mg/mL and 0.156 mg/mL, respectively. The results of this study prove the ease and efficiency of the synthesis of Ag-NPs using actinomycetes and demonstrate the significant potential of these Ag-NPs as anticancer and antibacterial agents.

Project description:Breast cancer poses a global threat with rising incidence and high mortality. Conventional treatments, including chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and immunotherapy, have side effects, such as resistance issues and adverse effects due to genetic mutations. Meanwhile, noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized using environmentally friendly methods offer alternative treatments. Bimetallic gold (Au) and silver (Ag) NPs, using natural compounds like starch as stabilizers, enhance biomedical applications, including breast cancer therapies. In this work, the optical properties, stability, and particle size of colloidal bimetallic Ag/Au NPs were analyzed using UV-visible spectroscopy and ζ-potential measurements. The structural properties of the NPs were studied by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), while the morphology, chemical composition and particle size were determined using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). The antitumor properties of the Ag/Au NPs were analyzed on human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) using the MTT viability method, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and genotoxicity assays. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were used as a reference of healthy cells. UV-vis spectroscopy and EDX mapping analysis confirmed the synthesis of bimetallic Ag/Au NPs. Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) absorption bands shifted from 407 nm (Ag) to 524 nm (Au) based on the chemical composition of the NPs. The Ag/Au NPs showed cytocompatibility in PBMCs and a dose-dependent anticancer effect against MCF-7 cancer cells, as well as cell death dependent on ROS production was observed, particularly in NPs with atomic compositions of 50 and 75 at% Ag. This biological activity of the bimetallic NPs was associated with genotoxic damage of 20-24% greater than that observed in the monometallic counterparts. This study demonstrated the synthesis of mono- and bimetallic Ag/Au NPs using a rapid, reproducible and environmentally friendly method, with successful biomedical application against human breast cancer MCF-7 cells.
