Objective: To evaluate the effects of nanoparticle hyperthermia therapy on monocyte function and tumor-derived factors associated with macrophage polarization in a murine osteosarcoma model.

Study Design: Experimental study.

Animals: Female C3H mice.

Methods: Peripheral blood monocyte cell surface phenotype, monocyte chemotaxis, tumor messenger RNA expression, and survival were compared among osteosarcoma (OS)-bearing mice treated with nanoparticle hyperthermia therapy, OS-bearing mice with osteomyelitis, OS-bearing mice, vehicle control mice, and normal control mice.

Results: OS-bearing mice with osteomyelitis had a higher proportion of "nonclassical" monocytes (Ly6C ) compared with all other experimental groups. There were alterations in monocyte expression of multiple chemokine receptors among experimental groups including CXCR2, CCR2, and CXCR4. Monocytes from OS-bearing mice treated with hyperthermia therapy exhibited greater chemotaxis compared with monocytes from OS-bearing mice with osteomyelitis.

Conclusion: OS likely induced alterations in monocyte phenotype and function. Nanoparticle hyperthermia therapy increased in vitro monocyte chemotaxis.

Clinical Impact: Enhancing monocyte/macrophage function in dogs with OS may enhance antitumor immunity.

Background/aim: The development of new drugs is urgently needed for new treatment strategies that can improve the prognosis of osteosarcoma (OS). In this study, we attempted to identify combinations of new molecular-targeted agents for OS.

Materials And Methods: A library containing 324 compounds was used.

The traditional systemic chemotherapy through intravenous infusion of doxorubicin (DOX) has many side effects. The aim of this study was to develop a PLGA-based DOX-loaded implant and to evaluate the efficacy and drug metabolism distribution of the implant in intratumoral chemotherapy for osteosarcoma (OS). In this study, implants containing DOX, poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide), and polyethylene glycol 4000 were prepared by melt-molding method.

We attempted to synthesize a magnetic gene carrier with poly(ethylenimine), dextran and iron oxide nanoparticles (PDIs) for miR-302b transfection and . The nanoparticles were characterized for hydrodynamic properties, ζ potential and DNA-binding ability, evaluated by transmission electron microscopy. Cellular internalization, magnetofection efficiency and anti-osteosarcoma effects were investigated in osteosarcoma (OS) cells and OS-bearing nude mice.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant bone tumor and mainly affects children and adolescents. The OS five-year survival rate remains very low. Thus, novel therapeutic protocols for the treatment of OS are needed.
