As BrCa is one of the most prevalent cancer types and TNBrCa treatment is difficult due to poor prognosis and a high metastasis rate, finding a more reliable treatment option should be of the utmost interest.Methods: Prepared by reacting zinc carboxylates (formate, acetate, propionate, butyrate, isobutyrate, valerate) and hexamethylenetetramine, 4 distinct coordination compounds were further subjected to two modes of conversion into ZnO NPs – ultrasonication with oleic acid or heating of pure precursors in an air atmosphere. After detailed characterization, the resulting ZnO NPs were subjected to in vitro testing of cytotoxicity toward TNBrCa and normal breast epithelial cells. Further, their biocompatibility was evaluated.Results: The resulting ZnO NPs provide distinct morphological features, size, biocompatibility, and selective cytotoxicity toward TNBrCa cells. They internalize into two types of TNBrCa cells and imbalance their redox homeostasis, influencing their metabolism, morphology, and ultimately leading to their death via apoptosis or necrosis.Conclusion: The crucial properties of ZnO NPs seem to be their morphology, size, and zinc content. The ZnO NPs with the most preferential values of all three properties show great promise for a future potential use in the therapy of TNBrCa.Keywords: carboxylate, hexamethylenetetramine, nanoparticles, redox homeostasis imbalance, triple negative breast cancer, zinc oxide coordination compoundsStepankova HSwiatkowski MKruszynski RSvec PMichalkova HSmolikova VRidoskova ASplichal ZMichalek PRichtera LKopel PAdam VHeger ZRex SDove Medical Pressarticlecarboxylatehexamethylenetetraminenanoparticlesredox homeostasis imbalancetriple negative breast cancerzinc oxide coordination compoundsMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 16, Pp 4431-4449 (2021)
