| Popis: | Magnetic hyperthermia can cause localized thermal eradication of several solid cancers. However, a localized and homogenous deposition of high concentrations of magnetic nanomaterials into the tumor stroma and tumor cells is mostly required. Poorly responsive cancers such as the pancreatic adenocarcinomas are hallmarked by a rigid stroma and poor perfusion to therapeutics and nanomaterials. Hence, approaches that enhance the infiltration of magnetic nanofluids into the tumor stroma convey potentials to improve thermal tumor therapy. We studied the influence of the matrix-modulating enzymes hyaluronidase and collagenase on the uptake of magnetic nanoparticles by pancreatic cancer cells and 3D spheroids thereof, and the overall impact on magnetic heating and cell death. Furthermore, we validated the effect of hyaluronidase on magnetic hyperthermia treatment of heterotopic pancreatic cancer models in mice. Treatment of cultured cells with the enzymes caused higher uptake of magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) as compared to nontreated cells. For example, hyaluronidase caused a 28% increase in iron deposits per cell. Consequently, the thermal doses (cumulative equivalent minutes at 43 °C, CEM43) increased by 15–23% as compared to heat dose achieved for cells treated with magnetic hyperthermia without using enzymes. Likewise, heat-induced cell death increased. In in vivo studies, hyaluronidase-enhanced infiltration and distribution of the nanoparticles in the tumors resulted in moderate heating levels (CEM43 of 128 min as compared to 479 min) and a slower, but persistent decrease in tumor volumes over time after treatment, as compared to comparable treatment without hyaluronidase. The results indicate that hyaluronidase, in particular, improves the infiltration of magnetic nanoparticles into pancreatic cancer models, impacts their thermal treatment and cell depletion, and hence, will contribute immensely in the fight against pancreatic and many other adenocarcinomas. |
