CELL LINE STUDIES OF RGD-FBG BASED NANOSCAFFOLDS OF EVEROLIMUS DRUG FOR GLIOBLASTOMAS Authors: Patel D* And Pathak D
ABSTRACT
Aims/Objective: To evaluate and characterized RGD sequenced fibrin/fibrinogen based
nanoscaffolds (acid-labile linker) for the treatment of brain tumor targeting using u-87MG
cell lines.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pharmaceutics, Parul Institute of Pharmacy
and Research, Parul University, Vadodara, between 2017 to 2021.
Methodology: Nanoscaffolds was prepared with Drug–linker–Fbg conjugate solution, using
modified water-in-oil (W/O) emulsification/solvent extraction method. The conjugate
solution was evaluated with the molecularly targeted compound and assessed the effect of
Everolimus on the cell lines; “gene or protein measurement” referred to studies that measured
levels of molecular markers in response to Everolimus. Cell viability was the outcome of
interest of the carried-out research work. Data on cell viability included the assay,
quantification technique used and cell viability measurement.
Results: MTT assay has been performed on formulation for assessing the % viability of the
drug on U-87 MG cell line. Comparison of API with Formulation revealed that the
formulation produces less cell viability as compared to individual API. The absorbance of the
produced formazan is proportional to the number damaged or dying cells.
Conclusion: As per the study design the formulated nanoscaffolds cell viability for formulation (50?g/ml) was studied which refers to the ability of a cell to perform its
biochemical and physiological processes, particularly in regards to its metabolism and ability
to divide that shows the lower effect of the IC50, which suggests the more cytotoxic the drug
is to that specific cancer cell type.
