Introduction: In the world, CRC is the third most common cancer that kills people of both sexes.
Nanoparticles have been introduced as a promising and potentially effective approach for the treatment of
tumors as a result of the use of nanotechnology in medicine. Gold nanoparticles have special
physicochemical characteristics that allow them to influence critical cancer cell activities.
Methods: We employed the human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line HT-29 for this
study. covering chitosan Gold nanoparticles were synthesized chemically. The size distribution, surface
plasmon resonance, and imaging were analyzed using DLS, visible-ultraviolet (UV-VIS) spectroscopy,
and atomic force microscopy, respectively. Cell survival and metabolic activity were assessed using the
MTT test, and the IC-50 of gold nanoparticles was determined. Flow cytometry Annexin V-FITC / PI was
used to evaluate apoptosis. The mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm)was measured using
Rhoudamin123. Reactive oxygen species were measured using the DCFH-DA method (ROS). Colony
formation capacity was evaluated using a clonogenic assay method. The relative expression of Gene
expression was quantified using the real-time qRCR technique.
Results: The chitosan-coated gold nanoparticles were spherical in shape, with an average size of 12.3 nm
and a surface plasmon resonance at 520 nm. 33 μM was the evaluated IC-50 for gold nanoparticles. In
comparison to the control group, the nanoparticles markedly limit colony formation, diminish
mitochondrial membrane potential, and trigger apoptosis in HT-29 cells. Additionally, there was no
significant alteration in the level of reactive oxygen species produced. Genes involved in apoptosis and
anti-apoptosis respectively showed a significant increase and decrease in their relative expression.
Conclusion: The evidence suggests that gold nanoparticles coated with chitosan have a cytotoxic effect
on human colorectal adenocarcinoma, indicating that they can be further investigated as a therapeutic
agent.
