Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) are known to be versatile tools in diagnostic and interventional radiology. The goal of the present study was to assess whether MNP can be selectively accumulated on human adenocarcinoma cells in vitro using an external magnetic field (magnetically induced cell labeling) and whether these labeled tumor cells can then be destroyed after being exposed to an alternating magnetic field (magnetically induced heating). In this context, a long-term goal is to combine these two developing methods to achieve an additive effect in tumor therapy.BT-474 cells were incubated until confluence. Magnetic nanoparticles (0.32 mg Fe/ml culture medium) were then added and the flask was exposed to an external magnetic field gradient (magnetically induced cell labeling, 56 or 83 mT magnets) for 24 hours in order to label the tumor cells with nanoparticles. Cells without both MNP and magnetic labeling as well as cells with MNP incubation but without magnetic labeling served as controls. After MNP incubation, the magnetically labeled cells (5 x 10 (7) cells/ml) were exposed to an alternating magnetic field for 5.45 minutes (frequency 400 kHz, amplitude 24.6 kA/m). The combination effect of both magnetic labeling and magnetic heating was assessed by determining the temperature increase. The amount of MNP accumulated within the cells was determined by measuring the iron content via atomic absorption spectrometry. For statistical analysis mean values and standard deviations of temperature increases and iron contents were calculated and the differences were analyzed using the Student's t-test.A significant temperature increase (p0.01) during magnetic heating of 41.76 +/- 4.60 K was detected after magnetic labeling of the cells (5 x 10 (7) cells/ml, 83 mT) incubated with MNP. In comparison, the cells incubated with MNP but without magnetic labeling revealed a temperature increase of 32.03 +/- 3.33 K, naked cells of only 2.69 +/- 0.34 K.The results demonstrated the magnetically based enhancement of cellular uptake of nanoparticles by tumor cells, resulting in the intensification of the generated temperature increase during magnetic heating. Consequently, magnetic nanoparticles are shown to be valuable tools for the combination of magnetically based therapy modalities. |
