研究目的
Investigating the effectiveness of functionalized fullerenes and surface modified TiO2 nanoparticles in photosensitizing peroxidation of lipids in selected model systems and the effect of melanin on this process.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that BB6 fullerene and Brp@TiO2 nanoparticles are effective photosensitizers for lipid peroxidation, with BB6 primarily operating via a Type II mechanism and Brp@TiO2 via a Type I mechanism. Melanin provides a protective effect, especially against Type II processes mediated by BB6. These findings have implications for the development of photodynamic therapy strategies, particularly in the context of melanoma treatment.
研究不足
The study is limited to in vitro models and may not fully replicate the complexity of in vivo systems. The protective effect of melanin was more pronounced with BB6 than with Brp@TiO2, indicating potential variability in melanin's protective role depending on the photosensitizer.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the use of spectroscopic and analytical methods to examine the photochemical properties of BB6 fullerene and Brp@TiO2 nanoparticles in liposomes and B16 mouse melanoma cells.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
POPC:cholesterol liposomes and B16 mouse melanoma cells were used as model systems.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a short-arc Xenon lamp, EPR spectrometer, HPLC system with electrochemical detection, and a Malvern Zetasizer Nano S particle size analyzer. Materials included BB6 fullerene, Brp@TiO2 nanoparticles, and synthetic eumelanin.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Liposomes were prepared and irradiated in the presence of photosensitizers. Oxygen consumption and lipid hydroperoxides were measured. Cell viability was assessed using an MTT assay.
