SERS detection and boron delivery to cancer cells using carborane labelled nanoparticles.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Water-soluble carborane functionalized nanoparticles also co-functionalized with targeting antibodies have been prepared. We demonstrate tumour cell targeting with anti-EGFR antibodies and delivery of a high concentration of boron using SERS imaging. This suggests these materials have a therapeutic potential in addition to multimodal imaging capabilities.

Preparation and properties of nido-carborane-specific monoclonal antibodies for potential use in boron neutron capture therapy for cancer.
As the first step of a research program aimed at developing a bispecific monoclonal antibody system for the delivery of boron-rich molecules to tumor cells for boron neutron capture therapy, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were produced against an anionic nido-carborane derivative, 4-[7,8-dicarbadodecahydroundecaborat(-1)-7-yl]butanoic acid. Two IgG subclass mAbs, designated HAW101 and HAW102, wer...
متن کاملSubstituted carborane-appended water-soluble single-wall carbon nanotubes: new approach to boron neutron capture therapy drug delivery.
Substituted C(2)B(10) carborane cages have been successfully attached to the side walls of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via nitrene cycloaddition. The decapitations of these C(2)B(10) carborane cages, with the appended SWCNTs intact, were accomplished by the reaction with sodium hydroxide in refluxing ethanol. During base reflux, the three-membered ring formed by the nitrene and SWCNT ...
متن کاملSynthesis of a carborane-containing cholesterol derivative and evaluation as a potential dual agent for MRI/BNCT applications.
In this study the synthesis and characterization of a new dual, imaging and therapeutic, agent is proposed with the aim of improving the efficacy of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) in cancer treatment. The agent (Gd-B-AC01) consists of a carborane unit (ten boron atoms) bearing a cholesterol unit on one side (to pursue the incorporation into the liposome bi-layer) and a Gd(iii)/1,4,7,10-te...
متن کاملPlant-Based Calcium Fructoborate as Boron-Carrying Nanoparticles for Neutron Cancer Therapy
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is an effective clinical method in cancer treatment based on fission reactions and nuclear capturing. In this method, use of the best boron-containing agents for boron therapy and boron delivery agent for transfer to the infectious site are the key points for efficienct treatment. Our research indicated that calcium fructoborate(CF) was the best compound as...
متن کاملTrivalent galactosyl-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles as a target-specific delivery system for boron neutron capture therapy.
A multi-functional mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN)-based boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) agent, designated as T-Gal-B-Cy3@MSN, was synthesized with hydrophobic mesopores for incorporating a large amount of o-carborane (almost 60% (w/w) boron atoms per MSN), and the amines on the external surface were conjugated with trivalent galactosyl ligands and fluorescent dyes for cell targeting ...
