چکیده

Vorinostat, a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), has shown promising anticancer effects, but its use is limited by its cytotoxicity and growing resistance. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the combined effect of vorinostat and silver nanoparticles (SNPs) on cancer cell lines by assessing their cytotoxicity, anti-angiogenic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities to improve the effectiveness and lessen the adverse effects of vorinostat. The combination of vorinostat and SNPs was tested on different cancer cell lines, along with normal fibroblasts. The anti-proliferative effect was assessed using different concentration of vorinostat and SNPs and the expression levels of vascular endothelial factor (VEGF), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), interleukin I beta (IL-1β), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and catalase (CAT) markers were evaluated by ELISA. The combined treatment of vorinostat and SNPs significantly increased the anti-proliferative in cancer cells compared to monotherapies. A significant reduction in VEGF, MMP9, TNFα, and IL-1β levels as well as decreased GPX and CAT levels was observed. In conclusion the results suggest that both vorinostat and SNPs have anticancer activity. Furthermore, it was indicated that this combination modifies the inflammation, oxidation and angiogenetic process in cancer cells, which may improve their therapeutic potential suggesting that this combination therapy offers a promising approach for overcoming the limitations of vorinostat monotherapy, including drug resistance and off-target toxicity.
