Resumo

Aim:To develop a series of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) by coconjugating them with ibuprofen (ibu) and glycerol phosphate (glycerol) or ibu and glucose-1-phosphate and to assess capacity of these conjugates to inhibit the release of nitric oxide (NO) in macrophages, even at low concentrations.Materials \& methods:The SPION conjugates were characterized and their properties evaluated showing the influence of those ligands on colloidal stability and inhibition of NO-release demonstrated. The cytotoxicity and possible anti-inflammatory activity were evaluated using murine macrophages (RAW 247.6).Results:SPION-glycerol phosphate/ibu conjugates inhibited the NO production induced by lipopolysaccharides, indicating a potential anti-inflammatory activity.Conclusion:SPION conjugated with ibu was shown to inhibit NO-release even at very low concentrations, suggesting possible action against inflammatory diseases.
