Cerium oxide nanoparticles: potential applications for cancer and other diseases.
The diverse abilities of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) have encouraged researchers to pursue CONPs as a therapeutic agent to treat a number of diseases, including cancer. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown CONPs to be toxic to cancer cells, inhibit invasion, and sensitize cancer cells to radiation therapy. However, CONPs display minimal toxicity to normal tissues and provide protectio...
متن کامل“Silymarin”, a Promising Pharmacological Agent for Treatment of Diseases
Widespread use of herbal drugs because of their protective effects on different organs toxicity has been shown in many studies. These protective effects have been illustrated in the fields of nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, viral hepatitis, cancer, in vitro fertilization, neurotoxicity, depression, lung diseases, prostate diseases etc. Silymarin has cytoprotection activities due to its antioxid...
متن کاملOptimization of condition for Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles dispersion as radioprotective agent in deionized water
Introduction: Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) are used as radiation protection agent in the in-vivo and in-vitro studies. The distribution stability of nano-suspension is one of the important factors during the studies. The aim of this study is optimization of condition for CONPs dispersion with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS-anionic surfactant) and tween 20 (nonionic surfactan...
متن کاملCerium oxide nanoparticles in cancer
With the development of many nanomedicines designed for tumor therapy, the diverse abilities of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) have encouraged researchers to pursue CONPs as a therapeutic agent to treat cancer. Research data have shown CONPs to be toxic to cancer cells, to inhibit invasion, and to sensitize cancer cells to radiation therapy and chemotherapy. CONPs also display minimal toxic...
متن کاملCerium oxide nanoparticles: a 'radical' approach to neurodegenerative disease treatment.
Despite advances in understanding the factors that cause many neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), no current therapies have yielded significant results. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeONPs) have recently emerged as therapeutics for the treatment of NDs due to their antioxidant properties. This report summarizes the recent findings regarding CeONPs in treatment of various NDs, including Alzheimer's...
