    Development of Mg-Alginate Based Self Disassociative Bio-Ink for Magnetic Bio-Patterning of 3d Tumor Models
    (Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2024) Coban, Basak; Baskurt, Mehmet; Sahin, Hasan; Arslan-Yildiz, Ahu
    Alginate forms a hydrogel via physical cross-linking with divalent cations. In literature, Ca2+ is mostly utilized due to strong interactions but additional procedures are required to disassociate Ca-alginate hydrogels. On the other hand, Mg-alginate hydrogels disassociate spontaneously, which might benefit certain applications. This study introduces Mg-alginate as the main component of a bio-ink for the first time to obtain 3D tumor models by magnetic bio-patterning technique. The bio-ink contains magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for magnetic manipulation, Mg-alginate hydrogel as a sacrificial material, and cells. The applicability of the methodology is tested for the formation of 3D tumor models using HeLa, SaOS-2, and SH-SY5Y cells. Long-term cultures are examined by Live/dead and MTT analysis and revealed high cell viability. Subsequently, Collagen and F-actin expressions are observed successfully in 3D tumor models. Finally, the anti-cancer drug Doxorubicin (DOX) effect is investigated on 3D tumor models, and IC50 values is calculated to assess the drug response. As a result, significantly higher drug resistance is observed for bio-patterned 3D tumor models up to tenfold compared to 2D control. Overall, Mg-alginate hydrogel is successfully used to form bio-patterned 3D tumor models, and the applicability of the model is shown effectively, especially as a drug screening platform.

    Near-Infrared Emissive Super Penetrating Conjugated Polymer Dots for Intratumoral Imaging in 3d Tumor Spheroid Models
    (Wiley, 2024) Karabacak, Soner; Coban, Basak; Yildiz, Ahu Arslan; Yildiz, Umit Hakan
    This study describes the formation of single-chain polymer dots (Pdots) via ultrasonic emulsification of nonionic donor-acceptor-donor type (D-A-D) alkoxy thiophene-benzobisthiadiazole-based conjugated polymers (Poly BT) with amphiphilic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The methodology yields Pdots with a high cationic surface charge (+56.5 mV +/- 9.5) and average hydrodynamic radius of 12 nm. Optical characterization reveals that these Pdots emit near-infrared (NIR) light at a maximum wavelength of 860 nm owing to their conjugated polymer backbone consisting of D-A-D monomers. Both colloidal and optical properties of these Pdots make them promising fluorescence emissive probes for bioimaging applications. The significant advantage of positively charged Pdots is demonstrated in diffusion-limited mediums such as tissues, utilizing human epithelial breast adenocarcinoma, ATCC HTB-22 (MCF-7), human bone marrow neuroblastoma, ATCC CRL-2266 (SH-SY5Y), and rat adrenal gland pheochromocytoma, CRL-1721 (PC-12) tumor spheroid models. Fluorescence microscopy analysis of tumor spheroids from MCF-7, SH-SY5Y, and PC-12 cell lines reveals the intensity profile of Pdots, confirming extensive penetration into the central regions of the models. Moreover, a comparison with mitochondria staining dye reveals an overlap between the regions stained by Pdots and the dye in all three tumor spheroid models. These results suggest that single-chain D-A-D type Pdots, cationized via CTAB, exhibit long-range mean free path of penetration (approximate to 1 mu m) in dense mediums and tumors. The single chain near infrared (NIR) emissive Pdots with high cationic surface charge enable penetration in dense medium such as tumor spheroids. Both colloidal and optical properties of Pdots make them promising fluorescent probe in bioimaging. image
