Abstract
The development of anticancer metal-based drugs was done by reacting oyelamine with selenous acid to produce a quaternary ammonium salt which consequently converted to platinum and cobalt cationic complexes via complexing the first compounds with platinum (II) or cobalt (II) ions. The surface properties studies that were conducted included critical micelle concentration (CMC), maximum surface excess (max) and minimum surface area (Amin). Free energy of micellization (G mic) and adsorption (G ads) were calculated. Antitumor activities were tested by using Ehrlich Acites Carcinoma (EAC) as a model system of mice cell tumor. These compounds were also tested in vitro on human five monolayer tumor cell lines: MCF7 (Breast carcinoma), HEPG2 (liver carcinoma), and HCT116 (colon carcinoma), etc. FTIR spectra, elemental analysis and H1 NMR spectrum were performed to insure the purity of the prepared compounds.

Planetary Ball Mills are used wherever the highest degree of finesse is required. Apart from the classical mixing and size reduction processes, the mills also meet all the technical requirements for colloidal grinding and have the energy input necessary for mechanical alloying processes. The extremely high centrifugal forces of the Planetary Ball Mills result in very high pulverization energy and therefore short grinding times. The product loaded cyclodextrin complex nanoparticles was obtained and their particle size was determined using transmission electron microscope.

(17) As shown from previous table by complexing parent surfactants with cobalt or platinum ions, high depression was observed in CMC values. That fact could be explained from the unique property of the metal complexes in water. That is the complexes retain its unity in their solutions, which increased their volume in the aqueous media and then repulsion is occurred between the hydrophobic chain and water molecules. (IIc) was found to be the most efficient one in because it achieved the maximum reduction of the surface tension at CMC. The efficiency PC20 increase with increasing molar ratio of methylene units. These due to the fact that the efficiency of adsorption at interfaces increase linearly with increase in the carbon atoms in hydrophobic group. In case of the prepared parent cationic surfactants by increasing the number methylene units Maximum surface excess max increases, this due to migration of molecules to the water-air interface. The consequence increase of max leads to crowdiness occurred at the interface which causing decrease in Minimum area per molecule Amin values. That is due to the minimum surface area decrease with increasing the hydrophobic chain length of the synthesized surfactant molecules. The standard free energies of micellization G mic and adsorption G ads values are always negative indicating the spontaneously of these two processes but there is more increase in negativity of G ads rather than those of micellization indicating the tendency of the molecules to be adsorbed at the interface.
(18) Antitumor Action of the Prepared Compounds:
(19) Olylammonium hydrogen selenites hydrogen selenite with its cobalt and platinum complexes were investigated as potential selective, anticancer prodrugs. They were tested by using Ehrlich Acites Carcinoma (EAC) as a model system of mice cell tumor. These compounds were also Tested in vitro on human five monolayer tumor cell lines: MCF7 (Breast carcinoma), HEPG2 (liver carcenoma), U 251 (Hela tumor) and HCT116 (colon carcinoma).
(20) Evaluation of Antitumor Activity of the (EAC):
(21) Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells as a model system was based on the finding that it is excellent tool for studying the biological behavior of malignant tumors and drug action with cells. A line of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) which used in the present study had been kindly supplied from National Cancer Institute, Cairo, Egypt, and maintained in female Swiss albino mice through weekly IMP transplantation of 2.5106 tumor cells/mouse. EAC cells were obtained by needle aspiration with aseptic condition. The ascetic fluid was diluted with sterile saline so that 0.1 ml contains 2.5106 cells counted microscopically using a haemocytometer. In vitro studying of these compounds antitumor activity was determined according to the percentage of nonviable cells (NVC %) which was calculated by the following equation NVC %=[number of NVC/total number of cells]/100.
(22) TABLE-US-00002 TABLE 2 Antitumor activity of the prepared compounds using (EAC): % Inhibition of cell viability Sample g/ml Conc. g/ml 100 50 25 IIa 40% 20% 10% IIb 100% 80% 40% IIc 90% 70% 30%
(23) As shown from Table 2 increasing the concentration of olylammonium hydrogen selenite (IIa) and its cobalt (IIb) or platinum (IIc) complexes in the EAC media was accompanied by progressive increase in the percent of non-viable cells. This comes from the fact that by increasing the concentration of cationic surfactant the adsorption of ions on cell membrane increases, leading to increase in penetration and antitumor activity. The inhibition of cell viability percent showed that the IIb (cobalt complex) is the most active one at concentration 100 g/ml, the percentage of non-viable cell reach to 100%. This mean that the drug at this concentration cause death all the tumor cell while, at concentration 50 g/ml the percentage of reach to 80%. But, at concentration 25 g/ml the (NVC %) reach to 40%. While IIc (platinum complex) at concentration 100-g/ml (NVC %) reach to 90% and at concentration 50 g/ml reach 70%. From these results IIa,c are the most active of all derivatives, since cobalt complexes seem to offer promise due to high electron affinity of the metal which increasing the ability to bind DNA and the ready reducibility of the compounds. While, it can be seen that IIa has the least toxic effect of all derivatives on EAC cells.
(24) Evaluation of Cytotoxic Activity on Human Tumor Cell Lines:
(25) The results of the cytotoxic activity on human tumor cell lines were determined according to the dose values of drug exposure for cell lines to reduce survival to 50% (Ic50). The experimental results recorded in Table (3).
(26) TABLE-US-00003 TABLE (3) Cytotoxic activity of the IIb,c compounds on human cell line Cell lines HELA Sample (IC50) MCF7 (IC50) HEPG2 (IC50) HCT116 (IC50) IIb 2.08 o.6 0.94 Ve IIc Ve 0.47 1.41 Ve
(27) The compounds tested exhibited high activity in vitro system on the tumor cell line investigated, IIb have the highest cytotoxic effect on MCF7, HEPG2 and HELA. The dose of it at which the survival reduction to 50% is (Ic50=0.6, 0.94 and 2.8 g/ml), respectively. Also IIc show good cytotoxic activity on HEPG2 and MCF7 (Ic50=1.41 and 0.47 g/ml), respectively. It should be noted that the action of these compounds as antitumor agents found to be dependent on the type of tumor cell line tested, but as shown from the results IIb (cobalt complexes) show excellent cytotoxic activity against several tumor cell line and under very low concentration reduces the survival to 50%. This comes from the fact that cobalt complexes have a capacity to reduce the energy status in tumors as well as enhance the tumor hypoxia which also influences their antitumor activities. It may be also concluded that the level of cellular damage inflicted by these complexes depends on the nature of their axial ligands. There is evidence that cobalt complexes cause significant changes in metabolism namely activation of lipid peroxidation, DNA damage and reduction of the bioenergetic status of tumor tissues. In general high selectivity of action by redoxactive cobalt complexes upon tumors is due to their specific reactivity. Platinum complexes exhibit superoxide dismutase like activity which used as anti-inflammatory agent and lipid soluble. This property enables the compound to penetrate membranes and become inter-cellular. Finally platinum and cobalt complex surfactant nanoparticles in our research affect tumor tissue at very low concentration at values lower than their CMC values, which mean that there is a strong relation between very small values of CMC of these compounds and the reaching to Ic50 values under very low concentration, this due to the fact that increasing concentration of cationic surfactant causes increase the adsorption process on cell membrane till reaching the CMC, after this concentration the adsorption retarded slowly then stopped due to form micelles which prevent the mobility and suppress antitumor activity. Oyelammonium hydrogen selenite does not reach to Ic50 for all tested human monolayer tumor cell lines. Many targets may be explored to counteract cancer and indication the role of studied metals should be useful for a better use of metal-based anticancer drugs.
(28) Antibacterial Activity of the Prepared Surfactants Against Sulphur Reducing Bacteria:
(29) Sulphur reducing bacteria are mainly sulfate reducers, and their growth frequently causes severe corrosion problems in oil well pipes. Due to the economic losses as well as environmental health and safety hazards caused by the activity of stabilized mixed culture containing sulphate reducing bacteria, (SMC-SRB) in many industrial sectors such as the oil and gas industry, it was important to minimize the risks resulting from SRB activity.
(30) Sulfur reducing bacteria are strict anaerobes that are often found in biotopes where toxic conditions can temporarily existing. The bacteria have developed several defense strategies in order to survive exposure to oxygen. These strategies include peculiar behaviors in the presence of oxygen, like aggregation or aerotaxis, and enzymatic systems dedicated to the reduction and the elimination of oxygen and its reactive species.
(31) Quaternary ammonium compounds are most effective against anaerobic bacteria (e.g. those that occur in oil wells). Several studies indicated that some quaternary ammonium compounds act as corrosion inhibitors and decrease sulfide production by (SRB) at low concentration than some biocides of commercial source. The results of the synthesized cationic surfactants against sulphur reducing bacteria recorded in Table 4.
(32) TABLE-US-00004 TABLE 4 Inhibition zone diameter (mm/mg sample) for the synthesized cationic surfactants against sulphur reducing bacteria. Inhibition zone diameter (mm/mg sample) Sulphur Sample reducing bacteria IIa 25 IIb 24 IIc 23
(33) The results in Table 4 indicates that the new synthesized cationic surfactants have high antimicrobial activity against sulphur reducing bacteria, and the difference in activity depends on the length of hydrophobic chain. The optimal length of the alkyl chain has been noted to be ten carbon atoms. The highest results were achieved by platinum complexes, this may be due to platinum is oxidizing agent act as reduction inhibitors leading to decrease in sulfide production and decreasing the growth rate of anaerobic (SRB). In more general bacterial growth Inhibition by metal ions was investigated in the sulphate-free medium. The rate of H.sub.2S production was approximately directly proportional to the specific activities of the invested enzymes. These activities were inversely proportional to the generation time. The rate of microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC) of carbon steel was directly proportional to bacterial resistance to metal ions.
(34) The technological advancement of this invention is novel for the complex to be used as antitumor agent. In addition, it will be appreciated that the various compounds for making the complex nano particle and method of using the complex nano particle such as antibacterial activity or antitumor activity can be made. Accordingly, the specification and drawings are to be regarded in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense.
