Anti-cancer potential of polymer based nanoparticle of EGCG and TF alone and in combination with anti-cancer drug cisplatin have been studied in human cancer lines: A549 (lung carcinoma), HeLa (cervical carcinoma) and THP-1 (acute monocytic leukemia) using cell proliferation assay and cell cycle analysis. Encapsulated polyphenols retained biological effectiveness with over 20-fold dose advantage than EGCG/TF in exerting anti-cancer effects and also enhanced the potential of a widely used anti-cancer drug cisplatin. Subsequently, encapsulated polyphenols alone or in combination with cisplatin were more effective in inhibiting cell proliferation, metastasis, angiogenesis and apoptosis biomarkers. Collectively, our observations reveal that nanoparticle-mediated delivery of phytochemicals could serve as a basis for enhancing bioavailability and limiting the unwanted toxicity of chemotherapeutic agents.
