To address this issue, we have adopted magnetic hyperthermia for the treatment of prostate cancer by developing a novel magnetic nanoparticle. METHODS: We synthesized a novel nanoparticle by combining carbon nanohorn (CNH) and iron oxide nanoparticle (IONP), referred to as CNH-IONP (Figure 1). Subcutaneous implantation of a human castration-resistant prostate cancer cell line, 22Rv1, was performed in the backs of six-week-old male nude mice. We organized the mice into three groups: the control group (n=6), the injection group (administered CNH-IONP via injection), and the treatment group (administered CNH-IONP + AMF irradiation). At three weeks (day 21) post-implantation, 300 μL of CNH-IONPs (Fe concentration: 36.3 mg/mL) was locally injected into the tumors of mice in the injection and treatment groups. Tumor sizes were monitored over time to assess the impact of hyperthermia. RESULTS: Mice in the treatment group underwent AMF irradiation from a coiled AMF generator for 30 minutes every two days (Figure 2). The temperature within tumors of the treatment group was maintained between 42°C and 46°C, defining a state of hyperthermia. The growth ratio of tumors in the treatment group exhibited significant suppression compared to the other groups (p<0.01, Kruskal–Wallis test). CONCLUSIONS: Through the development of the novel nanoparticle, CNH-IONP, we were able to effectively suppress tumor progression in a mouse model of metastatic prostate cancer, demonstrating the potential of this approach in hyperthermia therapy.
