Reducing Stress on Cells with Apoferritin-Encapsulated Platinum Nanoparticles

Abstract

The great potential for medical applications of inorganic nanoparticles in living organisms is severely restricted by the concern that nanoparticles can harmfully interact with biological systems, such as lipid membranes or cell proteins. To enable an uptake of such nanoparticles by cells without harming their membranes, platinum nanoparticles were synthesized within cavities of hollow protein nanospheres (apoferritin). In vitro, the protein-platinum nanoparticles show good catalytic efficiency and long-term stability. Subsequently the particles were tested after ferritin-receptor-mediated incorporation in human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Upon externally induced stress, for example, with hydrogen peroxide, the oxygen species in the cells decreased and the viability of the cells increased.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
