Multifunctional MIL-S─CUR@FC nanoparticles: a targeted theranostic agent for magnetic resonance imaging and tumor targeted delivery of curcumin
Introduction: Noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and targeted drug delivery systems, usually referred to as theranostic agents, are being developed to enable detection, site-specific treatment, and long-term monitoring. Materials and Methods: To elucidate the effects of coating on cellular uptake and biodistribution of n...
متن کاملMultifunctional nanoparticles for combining ultrasonic tumor imaging and targeted chemotherapy.
BACKGROUND Drug delivery in polymeric micelles combined with tumor irradiation by ultrasound results in effective drug targeting, but this technique requires prior tumor imaging. A technology that combined ultrasound imaging with ultrasound-mediated nanoparticle-based targeted chemotherapy could therefore have important applications in cancer treatment. METHODS Mixtures of drug-loaded polymer...

متن کاملQuantum Dots as Multifunctional Materials for Tumor Imaging and Therapy
The rapidly developing field of quantum dots (QDs) provides researchers with more options for imaging modalities and therapeutic strategies. In recent years, QDs were widely used as multifunctional materials for tumor imaging and therapy due to their characteristic properties such as semiconductive, zero-dimension and strong fluorescence. Nevertheless, there still exist the challenges of employ...
متن کاملMultifunctional Nanostructures for Tumor-Targeted Molecular Imaging and Photodynamic Therapy.
A multifunctional ICG-FA-PPD nanostructure is constructed by a facile self-assembly method through the negatively charged indocyanine green (ICG)- and positively charged folic acid-modified PEI-PEG-gadoteric acid (FA-PPD). The resulting ICG-FA-PPD is not only able to be used for targeting tumors, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and near-infrared imaging, but, more importantly, it enables phot...
