Nanomaterials incorporated ultrasound contrast agents for cancer theranostics
Nanotechnology provides various nanomaterials with tremendous functionalities for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. Recently, theranostics has been developed as an alternative strategy for efficient cancer treatment through combination of imaging diagnosis and therapeutic interventions under the guidance of diagnostic results. Ultrasound (US) imaging shows unique advantages with excellent fe...
متن کاملA pH-activatable and aniline-substituted photosensitizer for near-infrared cancer theranostics.
This work reports a newly designed pH-activatable and aniline-substituted aza-boron-dipyrromethene as a trifunctional photosensitizer to achieve highly selective tumor imaging, efficient photodynamic therapy (PDT) and therapeutic self-monitoring through encapsulation in a cRGD-functionalized nanomicelle. The diethylaminophenyl is introduced in to the structure for pH-activatable near-infrared f...

On the other hand, irradiation light (in the red or near IR region) used for exciting the PS can be tightly focused on the tumor regions, essentially assuring the selective generation of singlet oxygen. Moreover,...
متن کاملCancer Theranostics: An Introduction
Theranostics is a portmanteau of therapeutics and diagnostics. It can be diagnosis followed by therapy to stratify patients who will likely respond to a given treatment. It can also be therapy followed by diagnosis to monitor early response to treatment and predict treatment efficacy. It is also possible that diagnostics and therapeutics are codeveloped. For example, nanoplatforms can be design...
متن کاملRemotely Triggered Nano-Theranostics For Cancer Applications
Nanotechnology has enabled the development of smart theranostic platforms that can concurrently diagnose disease, start primary treatment, monitor response, and, if required, initiate secondary treatments. Recent in vivo experiments demonstrate the promise of using theranostics in the clinic. In this paper, we review the use of remotely triggered theranostic nanoparticles for cancer application...
