    Abstract: The given invention is related to the field of medicine, namely to experimental research in oncology, and can be used to obtain a pharmaceutical agent for inhibiting the proliferation of HeLa cervical cancer cells. It entails the use of a metal powder obtained in a gaseous medium by means of an electric explosion of a wire made of low-carbon steel carried out with a specific energy of 7-18 kJ/g and a pulse duration of 1.2-2 ?s. The explosion is carried out inside a reactor that is pre-evacuated to a residual pressure of 10?2 Pa, and then filled with carbon monoxide to a pressure of 105 Pa at a gas circulation rate flow of 10 m/s. The products of the explosion deposited in a hopper are passivated in air for at least 48 hours. The resulting powder is extracted and mixed with a solution of the RPMI-1640 nutrient medium with L-glutamine, a pH of 7.2, in the proportion of the mass of the powder to the volume of the specified solution from 1:10 to 2.7:10.

  • Publication number: 20240066059
    Abstract: A method for producing CAR-M1 macrophages expressing a chimeric antigen receptor in vitro and in vivo includes using a conjugate of a non-viral gene delivery system and a chimeric antigen receptor gene. The CAR-M1 macrophages are produced in vivo by delivering genes encoding a chimeric antigen receptor and IFN-?, specifically to macrophages in the body, and thus does not require culturing and preparing an in-vitro cellular therapeutic agent, thus reducing the manufacturing costs of therapeutic agents. The CAR-M1 macrophages are a safer therapy since a non-viral vector is used, as compared to the production of CAR-M1 macrophages by gene delivery using a viral vector, and are a novel therapeutic candidate having the advantage of high anticancer efficiency for solid cancers, due to CAR-M1 macrophages in which intrinsic properties of macrophages infiltrating solid cancers and cancer cell phagocytosis are improved.
