Development of Dihydrochalcone Functionalized Gold Nanoparticles for Augmented Antineoplastic ActivityPayne, Jason N 01 October 2016 (has links)
Phloridzin, an antidiabetic and antineoplastic agent usually found in fruit trees, is a dihydrochalcone constituent that has a clinical/pharmaceutical significance as a sodiumglucose linked transport 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. Phloridzin never experienced widespread clinical usage in the pharmaceutical market due to its side effects and poor bioavailability when compared to other antidiabetic therapeutics. The poor bioavailability is primarily attributed to the degradation of the glycosidic bond of the phloridzin, resulting in the formation of phloretin, the aglycone of phloridzin and glucose. While phloretin displays a reduced capacity of SGLT2 inhibition, this nutraceutical shows enhanced antineoplastic activity in comparison to phloridzin. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been explored in improving the bioavailability of many drugs and therefore we opt for gold nanoparticle mediated delivery of phloridzin and phloretin and exploration of their anticancer mechanism. In this study, we have synthesized phloridzin and phloretin conjugated gold nanoparticles (Phl-AuNP and Pht-AuNP) in a single-step, rapid, biofriendly processes. The synthesized AuNPs morphology and elemental composition was characterized via transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopyenergy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Assessment of the antineoplastic potency of the dihydrochalcone-conjugated AuNPs against cancerous cell lines was accomplished through monitoring via flow cytometry. We posit that the functionalization of these chalcones onto the gold nanoparticles’ surface has improved the pharmacokinetic profile of phloridzin and phloretin.

Modulação do trocador NA+/H+ apical, NHE3, pelo transporte de glicose em túbulos renais in vivo. / Modulation of apical Na+/H+ exchanger, NHE3, by glucose transport in rat renal proximal tubules.Pessoa, Thaíssa Dantas 16 February 2009 (has links)
e algumas vias de sinalização envolvidas com a reabsorção de HCO3-, além do efeito do tratamento com florizina e com streptozotocina. Para isso, utilizamos o método de microperfusão estacionária in vivo. Perfusões tubulares com solução de glicose 5mM aumentaram a reabsorção de bicarbonato em comparação com soluções contendo florizina sem glicose. Porém, perfusão de soluções de glicose 20mM ocasionaram efeito intermediário sobre esta reabsorção. A perfusão de solução contendo glicose 5mM com os inibidores PD169316 e LY294002 aboliu o efeito estimulatório promovido pela glicose 5mM. O tratamento com streptozotocina aboliu o efeito inibitório da perfusão de solução de glicose 20mM. Já o tratamento com florizina, não apresentou nenhum efeito adicional à inibição ocasionada pela perfusão de glicose 20mM mas inibiu o efeito estimulatório produzido pela perfusão de glicose 5 mM. / We studied the modulation of bicarbonate reabsorption by the apical Na+/H+ exchanger of renal proximal tubule by luminal glucose, and the signaling path of this relationship. Treatment with phloridzin and streptozotocin diabetes on HCO3- reabsorption was also studied. We used stationary microperfusion in vivo for this purpose. Tubule perfusions with 5 mM glucose increased bicarbonate reabsorption compared to solutions without glucose plus phloridzin. Perfusion with 20 mM glucose caused an intermediate effect on JHCO3- compared to 0/phloridzin and 5 mM glucose. The inhibitors PD169316 and LY294002 with 5 mM glucose blocked the stimulatory effect of the latter, but H89 had no such effect. Streptozotocin diabetes abolished the inhibitory effect of 20 mM glucose perfusion. Chronic phloridzin did not produce any additional effect on JHCO3- during 20 mM glucose perfusion in normal rats., but blocked JHCO3- during perfusion with 5 mM glucose.
