Vapor phase mediated cellular uptake of sub 5 nm nanoparticles
Nanoparticles became an important and wide-used tool for cell imaging because of their unique optical properties. Although the potential of nanoparticles (NPs) in biology is promising, a number of questions concerning the safety of nanomaterials and the risk/benefit ratio of their usage are open. Here, we have shown that nanoparticles produced from silicon carbide (NPs) dispersed in colloidal s...
متن کاملNanolipoparticles-mediated MDR1 siRNA delivery: preparation, characterization and cellular uptake
Objective(s): Lipid-based nanoparticles (NLP) are PEGylated carriers composed of lipids and encapsulated nucleic acids with a diameter less than 100 nm. The presence of PEG in the NLP formulation improves the particle pharmacokinetic behavior. The purpose of this study was to prepare and characterize NLPs containing MDR1 siRNA and evaluate their cytotoxicity and cellular uptake. MDR1 siRNA coul...

متن کاملVapor-phase synthesis of nanoparticles
An overview of methods for preparing nanoparticles in the vapor phase is given, and recent advances are reviewed. Developments in instrumentation for monitoring vapor-phase synthesis of nanoparticles and in modeling these processes are also included. The most important developments relate to improved control and understanding of nanoparticle aggregation and coalescence during synthesis, and to ...
متن کاملReceptor-mediated cellular uptake of nanoparticles: a switchable delivery system.
8 The small size of nanoparticles and nanocages enables them to overcome various biological barriers and enter target cells, which is an attractive feature for various applications in biomedicine. For example, quantum dots, gold, and magnetic nanoparticles have been used as delivery carriers for small-interference RNA (siRNA), which has been applied for silencing specifi c genes in vitro and in...
