Fluorescent gold nanoclusters for efficient cancer cell targeting

Well-known surface properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) offer easy surface modification with desired biomolecule, thus enabling them to be used for targeting and imaging of cancer cells/tissues. However, targeting and imaging capability come through after synthesis coating of AuNPs' surface with targeting or imaging molecules. Attempts have been made to conjugate both imaging and targeting ...

Cytotoxicity of nucleus-targeting fluorescent gold nanoclusters.

Gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) with ultra small sizes and unique fluorescence properties have shown promising potential for imaging the nuclei of living cells. However, little is known regarding the potential cytotoxicity of AuNCs after they enter the cell nucleus. The aim of this study is to investigate whether and how nucleus-targeting AuNCs affect the normal functioning of cells. Highly stable, w...

Near-infrared fluorescent ribonuclease-A-encapsulated gold nanoclusters: preparation, characterization, cancer targeting and imaging.

Ultra-small gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) have unique size-dependent optical, electrical and chemical properties. They have emerged as a new nanomaterial with broad applications in optoelectronics, catalysis, biosensing, and bioimaging. Several strategies have been exploited to prepare AuNCs of different "magic number" sizes, using different templates e.g. dendrimers, polyethyleneimines, peptides, ...

Multivalent Glycosylation of Fluorescent Gold Nanoclusters Promotes Increased Human Dendritic Cell Targeting via Multiple Endocytic Pathways.

We report the synthesis and characterization of gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) stabilized by a mixture of zwitterionic and multivalent mannose ligands. Characterization of this carbohydrated nanosystem confirms its small size (∼2 nm), intense red-NIR fluorescence, relatively high affinity to lectin (ConA), and stability in physiological media. Cell studies performed using human-monocyte-derived den...

Synthesis of functionalized fluorescent gold nanoclusters for acid phosphatase sensing.

A novel and convenient one-pot but two-step synthesis of fluorescent gold nanoclusters, incorporating glutathione (GSH) and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) as the functionalized ligands (i.e. AuNCs@GSH/MUA), is demonstrated. Herein, the mixing of HAuCl4 and GSH in aqueous solution results in the immediate formation of non-fluorescent GSH-Au(+) complexes, and then a class of ∼2.6 nm GSH-coated ...
