ROS-Mediated Apoptosis and Autophagy in Ovarian Cancer Cells Treated with Peanut-Shaped Gold Nanoparticles

Ewelina Piktel et al.

Summary: Novel peanut-shaped gold nanoparticles (AuP NPs) were developed and shown to exhibit high anti-cancer activity against SKOV-3 cells in vitro. The AuP NPs decreased cell viability and proliferation by inducing apoptosis and autophagy, with overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) playing a critical role in cell death.

Varied-shaped gold nanoparticles with nanogram killing efficiency as potential antimicrobial surface coatings for the medical devices

Ewelina Piktel et al.

Summary: The study synthesized a series of varied-morphology gold nanoparticles with potent antibacterial activity against a spectrum of clinical strains, including Candida albicans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and uropathogenic Escherichia coli. The optimized synthesis of gold nanoparticles allowed for the development of nanomaterials significantly more potent than previous formulations, with antimicrobial spectrum covering strains with different drug resistance mechanisms. The research highlights the potential for using non-spherical gold nanoparticles as new coatings targeting multidrug-resistant pathogens causing device-associated infections.
