Cell-specific targeting by engineered M13 bacteriophage expressing VEGFR2 nanobody
Objective(s): Filamentous bacteriophage M13 was genetically engineered to specifically target mammalian cells for gene delivery purpose. Materials and Methods: A vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2)-specific nanobody was genetically fused to the capsid gene III of M13 bacteriophage (pHEN4/3VGR19). A mammalian expression construct containing Cop-green fluorescent protein (Cop-G...
متن کاملGold Nanotheranostics: Photothermal Therapy and Imaging of Mucin 7 Conjugated Antibody Nanoparticles for Urothelial Cancer
OBJECTIVE To kill urothelial cancer cells while preserving healthy cells, this study used photothermal therapy (PTT). PTT techniques target urothelial cancer cells using gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and a green light laser. MATERIALS AND METHODS The GNPs were conjugated with anti-Mucin 7 antibodies, which acted as a probe for targeting tumor cells. Conjugated GNPs were exposed to a green light l...
متن کاملFolate-Conjugated Gold Nanoparticles (Synthesis, Characterization and Design for Cancer Cells Nanotechnology-based Targeting)
A new folate-conjugated gold nanoparticle (AuNP) has been designed to selectively target the folate receptor that is overexpressed on the surface of tumoral cells. For this purpose, we made 4-aminothiophenol, as a bifunctional linker to react with HAuCl4 in the presence of sodium borohydride and it was binded to the AuNP surface through its thiol group. Then, we conjugated amino-terminated nano...
متن کاملSelective in vitro photothermal nano-therapy of MRSA infections mediated by IgG conjugated gold nanoparticles
There are serious systemic infections associated with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and several other types of bacteria leading to the deaths of millions of people globally. This type of mortality is generally caused by the increasing number of antibiotic-resistant organisms, a consequence of evolution via natural selection. After the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Evaluation of Gold Nanoparticles/Nanorods to Use in Plasmonic Photothermal Therapy
Introduction: Photothermal therapy is a method of cancer treatment that plasmonic nanoparticles are used to convert infrared light into local heat. Due to the plasmonic properties of gold nanoparticles, this compound was used as a contrast agent. The aim of this study was to synthesize gold nanoparticles with different conjugations for photothermal therapy. Methods: This research was an experi...
