Abstract:	The increase incidence of breast cancer and its therapeutic limitations, currently employed, demand the search for alternative therapies. Among compounds with therapeutic potential, the rhodium (II) citrate (Rh2 (H2 cit)4 ), a member of the family of rhodium carboxylates, is promising due to its cytotoxic, cytostatic and antitumor activity in mammary carcinoma cells (Ehrlich) and in adrenocortical tumor (Y-1) and normal cells (AR-1(6)). However, the introduction of this compound in preclinical studies has been limited due to its toxicity. Maghemite nanoparticles (NPM) and magnetoliposomes (ML) represent an attractive platform as carrier systems for drug delivery because they can act specifically on tumor cells. Therefore, the association between Rh2 (H2 cit)4 with NPM or ML represents a potential strategy to reduce the Rh2 (H2 cit)4 toxicity and to improve its therapeutic action. In this research, we report the biological effects of free Rh2 (H2 cit)4 and Rh2 (H2 cit)4 associated with NPM or ML on breast cancer both in cultured cells (MCF-7 and 4T1) and in Balb/c mice bearing carcinoma. Normal cells (MCF-10A) and healthy mice were also used in this study for comparison purposes. The cytotoxic effect of Rh2 (H2 cit)4 was more intense after 72 h with doses above 500 pM and in normal breast cells (MCF-10A) (p<0.05). The cytotoxic effects of free Rh2 (H2 cit)4 were evidenced by morphological changes such as nuclear condensation and fragmentation, formation of blebbing, phosphatidylserine exposure on the plasma membrane, reduction of actin and mitochondrial condensation. In treatments with 50 pM Rh2 (H2 cit)4 associated with NPM (Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 ) and ML (Lip-Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 ) the cytotoxic effect was more pronounced in carcinoma cells (MCF-7 and 4T1) than in normal cells (MCF-10A) (p <0.05). Moreover, it was found that Rh2 (H2 cit)4 and Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 showed antitumor activity in mice bearing breast carcinoma, with increased survival rate in animals treated with Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 . By histopathological and ultrastructural analysis, we found that treatment with Rh2 (H2 cit)4 and Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 induced apoptosis, necrosis and fibrosis in tumor tissue. Also, NPM were found in these tissues both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. Regarding the toxicity analysis, lymphocytopenia was observed in animals treated with Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 . Besides, a slight increase of DNA fragmentation of bone marrow cells was also noted in animals treated with Rh2 (H2 cit)4 , although biochemical and cytostatic alterations were not seen among all groups. In summary, we conclude that treatments with Rh2 (H2 cit)4 , Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 and Lip-Magh-Rh2 (H2 cit)4 compositions showed therapeutic potential for breast carcinoma.
