Ge, Ting;Zhang, Weiwei;Ge, Fei;Zhu, Longbao;Song, Ping;Li, Wanzheng;Gui, Lin;Dong, Wan;Tao, Yugui;Yang, Kai research published 《 A bone-targeting drug delivery vehicle of a metal-organic framework conjugate with zoledronate combined with photothermal therapy for tumor inhibition in cancer bone metastasis》, the research content is summarized as follows. Chemotherapy is a conventional treatment method for metastatic bone cancer, but it has limitations, such as lower drug-targeting of bone tissues and serious side effects. Bone metastasis almost always occurs in advanced cancer, and most patients in this period have strong drug resistance, which further worsens the curative effect. To address the above-mentioned difficulties, a drug delivery platform is proposed in this paper that accomplishes the bone-targeting of drugs to efficiently inhibit tumors. First, the anti-cancer drugs 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) and indocyanine green (ICG) were loaded into a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-90) to form 5-Fu/ICG@ZIF-90. Polyethylene glycol with zoledronic acid (ZOL) was encapsulated using 5-Fu/ICG@ZIF-90 to synthesize 5-Fu/ICG@ZIF-90-PEG-ZOL nanoparticles, which showed dimensional stability, good thermal stability, and bone-targeting ability. Second, the in vitro anti-cancer activity of the designed platform was investigated using cytotoxicity, apoptosis, live-dead staining, cell cycle, and cell ultrathin section anal. The results indicated that the nanoparticles inhibited MCF-7 cell activity when chemotherapy was combined with PTT. Finally, H&E staining and TUNEL detection were performed in mouse organs and tumors. The nanoparticles combined with photothermal therapy (PTT) and triggered by near-IR irradiation induce apoptosis of tumor cells in vivo, displaying a better efficacy of combined chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. Experiments conducted on the 5-Fu/ICG@ZIF-90-PEG-ZOL nanoparticles demonstrated their promising performance for cancer bone metastasis inhibition.
Product Details of C4H4N2O, 1H-Imidazole-2-carbaldehyde, also known as 1H-Imidazole-2-carbaldehyde, is a useful research compound. Its molecular formula is C4H4N2O and its molecular weight is 96.09 g/mol. The purity is usually 95%.
1H-Imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde is a novel PTP1b inhibitor with potential application to treat type 2 diabetes.
1H-Imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria by interfering with protein synthesis. It binds to the cytosolic protein and receptor molecule, which are involved in the activation of bacterial enzymes. Imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde reacts with anhydrous sodium and copper complex to produce hydrogen bonds, which prevent the formation of the nitrogen atoms necessary for cellular processes. This chemical also has biological properties such as glyoxal, which inhibits bacterial growth by reacting with amino groups on proteins., 10111-08-7.
