Objective To explore inhibitory effect of magnetic lipid microbubble based vectors on the growth of human HepG2 cells in vitro. Methods Magnetic lipid microbubbles based gene vectors were prepared by mechanical oscillation method. Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles and heating up of magnetic lipid microbubble Fe3O4 magnetic lipid microbubble were identified. PEGFP-C1 was utilized to observe the efficiency of foreign gene transfection. mediated bymagnetic lipid microbubbles. MTT method and flow cytometry were used to evaluate growth of HCC cells. Results The magnetic lipid microbubble contrast agent has a small particle size and stable properties, and has good magnetic response. The exogenous WtP53 gene can be transfected into HepG2 cell line and expressed constantly. Ability of self-heating up was achieved under the action of magnetic field. Gene therapy combination of magnetic induction hyperthermia and gene therapy in human HepG2 cells inhibited cellular growth. Conclusions Magnetic lipid microbubble based gene vectors may be a novel approach for cancer therapy.
