Gold Nanoparticle-Induced Cell Death and Potential Applications in Nanomedicine
Cell death is crucial to human health and is related to various serious diseases. Therefore, generation of new cell death regulators is urgently needed for disease treatment. Nanoparticles (NPs) are now routinely used in a variety of fields, including consumer products and medicine. Exhibiting stability and ease of decoration, gold nanoparticles (GNPs) could be used in diagnosis and disease tre...
متن کاملApplications of Gold Nanoparticles in Nanomedicine: Recent Advances in Vaccines.
Nowadays, gold is used in (nano-)medicine, usually in the form of nanoparticles, due to the solid proofs given of its therapeutic effects on several diseases. Gold also plays an important role in the vaccine field as an adjuvant and a carrier, reducing toxicity, enhancing immunogenic activity, and providing stability in storage. An even brighter golden future is expected for gold applications i...
متن کاملNanomedicine: Techniques, Potentials, and Ethical Implications
Nanotechnology is concerned with materials and systems whose structures and components exhibit novel physical, chemical, and biological properties due to their nanoscale size. This paper focuses on what is known as nanomedicine, referring to the application of nanotechnology to medicine. We consider the use and potentials of emerging nanoscience techniques in medicine such as nanosurgery, tissu...
متن کاملCatalysis by Supported Gold Nanoclusters
The physical and chemical properties of supported Au clusters are markedly sensitive to cluster size and morphology. To investigate the origin of the unique properties of nanosized Au clusters, model catalysts consisting of Au clusters of varying sizes have been prepared on single crystal TiO2(110) and ultrathin films of single crystalline TiO2, SiO2, and Al2O3. The morphology, electronic struc...
متن کاملGold nanocages as multifunctional materials for nanomedicine
Featured by tunable localized surface plasmon resonance peaks in the near-infrared region and hollow interiors, Au nanocages represent a novel class of multifunctional nanomaterials that have gained considerable attention in recent years. This short review summarizes our recent work on the capabilities of Au nanocages in nanomedicine. We start with a brief description of the synthesis of Au nan...
