Detection of Pt derivatives using ICP mass spectrometry
Zelinová, Karin ; Hložková, Michaela (referee) ; Vašinová Galiová, Michaela (advisor)
This Bachelor´s thesis deals with the monitoring of chemotherapeutic penetration into tumor cells. Due to the toxicity of drugs, targeting them is absolutely essential from the point of view of minimizing the interference with healthy tissue of the patient. In order to achieve the best possible targeting, it is necessary to monitor the penetration of chemotherapeutics into cells. The subject of study was platinum-based drugs therefore the ICP-MS method was chosen to analyse the drug content in cells, because it is suitable for fast and reliable detection of trace amounts of elements. The theoretical part of the Bachelor´s thesis focuses on the description of ICP-MS, as a method, which was chosen for the detection of platinum derivates. It also summarizes the use of platinum-based drugs in cancer therapy. The practical part of the thesis deals with the analysis of cells exposed to platinum-based chemotherapeutics. Detection and quantification of platinum in the cells were determined by both SN-ICP-MS and LA-ICP-MS. To verify the results, the analysis of the solution was also performed by the AAS method. The results show, that the drug was most readily taken up by A2780 cells. It was also shown that cisplatin was the most accumulated drug.

Analysis of chemotherapeutics in extracellular vesicles
Kožnarová, Simona ; Hložková, Michaela (referee) ; Vašinová Galiová, Michaela (advisor)
Extracellular vesicles are a newly discovered way of cell-to-cell communication. The issue is still significantly unexplored, especially in the case of cancer. The goal of this pilot study was to attempt to detect platinum contained in extracellular vesicles by ICP-MS. In this study, samples of ovarian cancer cell lines treated with platinum derivatives, a type of chemotherapeutic drug, were used. This method was proved as able to detect platinum, even as able to determine its concentration reliably. The quantity of platinum in vesicles was around 1–2 % of the total platinum added to the system. The results varied according to the used platinum derivative, the cell line and the number of cells releasing the vesicles. Most platinum was determined in vesicles of the SK-OV-3 line, which is naturally resistant to this treatment, for all platinum derivatives. From these results it can be concluded that the use of ICP-MS is also advisable for additional research on this issue.
