Conventional treatment options for lung cancer treatment were restricted due to non-specific nature and side effects, with this associated problem and to overcome this we had developed lumefantrine with nano calcium phosphate loaded lipid nanoparticles (LF-CaP-Ls) affording pH sensitive mechanism. Herein, the present study the in vivo anti-cancer property of LF-CaP-Ls was checked in mice models. Further, reduced lung cancer progression of lumefantrine with nano calcium phosphate loaded lipid nanoparticles (LF-CaP-Ls) treated mice were assessed by measuring the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF) in serum. Moreover, LF-CaP-Ls showed substantially a anticancer effect compared to that of lumefantrine loaded lipid nanoparticles (LF-Ls) and free lumefantrine (LF) by exhibiting higher effects in lung tumor bearing mice model as confirmed by reduced tumor progression. Histopathological examination of lungs supported with H&E staining proved the reduced tumor vasculature and reduced inflammatory cells for LF-CaP-Ls compared to that of free LF and LF-Ls. Further, visual inspection with acetic acid test confirmed the reduced tumor progression for LF-CaP-Ls compared to that of free LF and LF-Ls. Altogether, the overall results suggested that the developed LF-CaP-Ls may acts as a better therapeutic molecule for lung cancer due to its maintenance of increased level of 5-MTHF levels, reduced tumor weight. Further, hematological and biochemical parameters were measured and supports our in-vivo therapeutic effect of LF-CaP-Ls.
