The in vitro results showed Se-MOP had anti-cancer effects by inducing cell cycle arrest and immune-enhancing effects by stimulating lymphocyte proliferation and cytokine expression.
Characterization via UV-Vis, TEM, FTIR, and zeta potential analysis confirmed spherical, stable nanoparticles below 100 nm. For immune-enhancing effects, Se-MOP stimulated mouse spleen lymphocyte proliferation and increased expression of cytokines IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-4, especially when synergistically stimulated with PHA or LPS. The study concludes Se-MOP is a stable compound with enhanced bioactivities compared to native MOP, but notes that further studies on binding mechanisms, in vivo efficacy, and specific apoptotic pathways are needed.
