Selenite Substituted Calcium Phosphates: Preparation, Characterization, and Cytotoxic Activity
Abstract
<jats:p>The aim of this study was to prepare a biomimetic selenium substituted calcium phosphate system for potential application in osteosarcoma therapy. Calcium phosphate (CaP) systems substituted with selenite ions were prepared by the wet precipitation method, using biogenic CaCO3 (derived from cuttlefish bone), CO(NH2)2-H3PO4, and Na2SeO3·5H2O as reagents. Starting reaction mixtures were prepared based on the formula for selenite-substituted hydroxyapatite, Ca10(PO4)6-x(SeO3)x(OH)2, with Ca/(P + Se) molar ratio of 1.67 and Se/(P + Se) molar ratio of: 0, 0.01, 0.05, and 0.10, respectively. The prepared CaP powders were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction analysis and Rietveld refinement studies. Phase transformation and ion release were analyzed during 7 days of incubation in simulated body fluid at 37 °C. The metabolic activity of healthy and osteosarcoma cell lines was assessed by cell cytotoxicity and viability test. The as-prepared powders were composed of calcium-deficient carbonated hydroxyapatite (HAp), octacalcium phosphate (OCP), and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). Along with the selenite substitution, the presence of Sr2+, Na+, and Mg2+ was detected as a result of using cuttlefish bone as a precursor for Ca2+ ions. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry analysis showed that the Se/(P + Se) molar ratios of selenite substituted powders are lower than the nominal ratios. Heat treated powders were composed of HAp, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). Doping CaP structure with selenite ions improves the thermal stability of HAp. The powder with the Se/(P + Se) molar ratio of 0.007 showed selective toxicity to cancer cells.</jats:p>
