近年來,愈來愈多的研究表明薄荷醇具有明顯的抗癌效果,可抑制多種惡性腫瘤的生長。已知薄荷醇具有多種藥理活性,如抗炎鎮痛、清涼止癢、抗真菌等,目前在臨床上被廣泛應用。研究發現薄荷醇其受體TRPM8在腫瘤細胞中高度表達,薄荷醇能激活腫瘤細胞上的TRPM8通道,允許鈣離子進入腫瘤細胞,增加細胞內的鈣濃度,降低細胞活力從而誘導腫瘤細胞死亡。然而,薄荷醇具有高揮發性、難溶於水等的局限性。本研究使用人類血清白蛋白作為藥物載體,將薄荷醇與人類血清白蛋白結合製作成包覆薄荷醇之白蛋白微氣泡對比劑 (Menthol-MBs),以提升薄荷醇的穩定度。結合施打超音波能量可誘發包覆薄荷醇之白蛋白微氣泡破裂釋放藥物並產生穴蝕效應以增強藥物輸送效率,促進藥物導致的腫瘤細胞死亡。
本研究將薄荷醇與人類血清白蛋白結合,製作出包覆薄荷醇之白蛋白微氣泡 (Menthol-MBs),經測量分析顯示平均粒徑為3.45 ± 0.25 µm,藥物包覆率為26.93 ± 0.39%。為探討包覆薄荷醇之白蛋白微氣泡結合超音波能量對腫瘤細胞生存率的影響,本研究採用實驗組別 (1) 控制組 (Control);(2) 微氣泡對比劑 (MBs);(3) 薄荷醇 (Menthol);(4) 薄荷醇混合微氣泡 (Menthol+MBs);(5) 薄荷醇包覆於微氣泡 (Menthol-MBs) 分別進行有無施打超音波能量之細胞實驗。實驗結果證實了薄荷醇與人類血清白蛋白結合能夠穩定薄荷醇,增強毒殺效果。加上超音波能量施打造成微氣泡破裂導致穴蝕效應使腫瘤細胞通透度增加,有助包覆於微氣泡球殼上的薄荷醇釋放進入細胞,誘發細胞死亡。因此包覆薄荷醇之白蛋白微氣泡結合超音波能量施打可達到治療效果最佳化 (p<0.001)。本研究將首創探討白蛋白微氣泡包覆薄荷醇結合超音波能量誘發穴蝕效應以提升薄荷醇於頭頸癌治療效果的可行性。
Recently, many evidences show the obvious anticancer effect of menthol which can inhibit the growth of malignant tumors. It has been found that menthol has many pharmacological properties such as anti-inflammatory, analgesic, cooling and relieving itching etc. Menthol is currently widely used in clinical applications. TRPM8, the receptor of menthol, is a nonselective cation channel which is highly expressed in tumor cells. It can be activated by menthol to allow calcium ions entering tumor cells. Increased calcium ion concentration in tumor cells result in reducing tumor cell viability, and inducing tumor cell death. However, limitations of menthol are high volatility and low solubility in water. In this thesis, human serum albumin (HSA) is used as a drug carrier to encapsulate menthol and produce menthol-loaded microbubbles (Menthol-MBs). Combined with ultrasound energy application, the menthol-loaded microbubbles could expanse and then collapse, resulting a cavitation effect to enhance the tumor cells death.
The average particle diameter of the menthol-loaded microbubbles is 3.45 ± 0.25 µm, and the encapsulation efficiency is 26.93 ± 0.39%. In order to investigate the feasibility of ultrasound mediated menthol-loaded microbubbles in cancer treatment, our thesis designed the in vitro cell experiments in five groups: (1) no treatment (Control), (2) microbubbles contrast agents (MBs), (3) Menthol, (4) Menthol mixed with microbubbles (Menthol+MBs), (5) Menthol-loaded microbubbles (Menthol-MBs) with or without ultrasound energy. The experimental results proved that the combination of menthol and HSA can stabilize menthol and enhance its pharmacological activity. In addition, ultrasound energy induces the collapsion of the microbubbles, causing the cavitation effect. It increases the permeability of the cancer cells, which enhances drug delivery into the tumor cells, hence induces cell death significantly. Therefore, the combination of menthol-loaded microbubbles and ultrasound energy can achieve the best therapeutic effect (p < 0.001). The feasibility of menthol-loaded microbubbles combined with ultrasound energy inducing cavitation to enhance the therapeutic effect on hypopharyngeal cancer was firstly investigated.
