Abstract

Aim: MiRNA's-143 and -206 are powerful apoptotic regulators in cancer cells. This study aimed to use miRNA-143- and 206-loaded poly(lactic- co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles conjugated with folic acid to induce apoptosis in the EL4 cancer cells. Materials & methods: The therapy was conducted in six groups: treatment with both miRNAs simultaneously (mixed miRNAs), miRNA-206 treatment, miRNA-143 treatment, blank PLGA, blank polyethylenimine (PEI) and complex PEI-miRNAs. Results: In terms of viability, in mixed miRNAs no synergistic effect was observed on EL4 cell elimination. However, in the single miRNA-206 group, a stronger apoptotic effect was observed than the mixed miRNAs group and single miRNA-143 group alone. Conclusion: MiRNAs' apoptotic induction effects in cancer cells were found to be remarkable.
