Abstract

Constructing a system to carry medicine for more effective remedy of cancer has been a leading challenge, as the number of cancer cases continues to increase. In this present research, a curcumin-loaded chitosan/halloysite/carbon nanotube nanomixture was fabricated by means of water/oil/water emulsification method. The drug loading efficiency (DL) and entrapment efficiency (EE), as a result, reached 42 % and 88 %, respectively and FTIR and XRD analysis confirmed the bonding between the drug and nanocarrier. Morphological observation through FE-SEM and characterization through DLS analysis demonstrated that the average size of nanoparticles is 267.37 nm. Assessment of release within 96 h in pH 7.4 and 5.4 showed sustained release. For more investigation, release data was analyzed by diverse kinetic models to understand the mechanism in the release procedure. An MTT assay was also carried out, and the results illustrated apoptosis induction on MCF-7 cells and exhibited ameliorated cytotoxicity of the drug-loaded nanocomposite compared to the free curcumin. These findings suggest that the unique pH-responsive chitosan/halloysite/carbon nanotube nanocomposite might make a good option for drug delivery systems, particularly for the cancer treatment. © 2023
