Abstract

Refining nutraceutical conjugated metal nanoparticles (NPs) and understanding their interactions with the cellular micro-environment is necessary for their application in nanomedicine. In the present experiment, we studied the effect of quercetin functionalized gold nanoparticles ((AuNP)-N-Qur) on skin fibroblast and keratinocyte cell migration. Spherical shaped Au(Qur)NPs of 47 nm in size were formed due to the interaction of hydroxyl and carbonyl groups of quercetin with Au atoms as revealed by incremental algorithm-based analysis. (AuNP)-N-Qur containing up to 5 mu g l(-1) of Au with quercetin (5.2 +/- 1.6 ng ml(-1)) was least toxic to fibroblasts. (AuNP)-N-Qur effectively reduced the generation of intracellular ROS (up to 63%) through free-radical scavenging activity. (AuNP)-N-Qur also enhanced the rate of migration of fibroblasts (24 h) and keratinocytes (20 h) in artificially created wounds. The rate of migration of the cells towards the wound edge was in the order of (AuNP)-N-Qur > control > quercetin > AuNP. (AuNP)-N-Qur also significantly increased the expression of TGF beta 1 protein, thereby inducing the downstream SMAD complex (SMAD 2-4). Downregulation of the inhibitory protein SMAD 7 by (AuNP)-N-Qur helped in the nuclear translocation of SMADs 3 and 4. Collectively, the present in vitro study demonstrates the action of (AuNP)-N-Qur on the SMAD family and the interconnected molecular mechanism leading to the cell migration process.
