Summary: This study aimed to enhance the bioavailability of rosmarinic acid, a bioactive compound with high anticancer activity, by encapsulating it in tetrasulfide-based porous organosilica nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles were small in size and had a high surface area and an average pore diameter. The nanoparticles showed effective accumulation in cancer cells without toxicity to normal cells. Treatment with rosmarinic acid-containing nanoparticles resulted in significant cell death in cancer cells. Overall, these findings suggest that the synthesized nanoparticles can enhance the pharmacological effects of rosmarinic acid.

Summary: Plasma protein binding plays a crucial role in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of therapeutic bioactive materials. In this study, the interaction of nordentatin, a member of coumarins, with human alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (AGP) was investigated, and the anticancer potency of nordentatin against human colorectal cancer cells was evaluated. The results showed that nordentatin binds to AGP through a static quenching mechanism and exhibits inhibitory effects on the growth of HCT-116 cells by increasing intracellular ROS and [Ca2+] levels and triggering apoptosis-related gene overexpression. Therefore, nordentatin could be a promising plant-based therapy for colorectal cancer.
