Abstract The appeal of carbon dots (CDs) has grown recently, due to their established biocompatibility, adjustable photoluminescence properties, and excellent water solubility. For the first time in literature, copper chlorophyllin‐based (Chl‐D CDs) are successfully synthesized. Chl‐D CDs exhibit unique spectroscopic traits found induce a Fenton‐like reaction, augmenting photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficacies via ferroptotic apoptotic pathways. To bolster therapeutic impact CDs, widely used...
Thanks to its intrinsic properties, two-dimensional (2D) bismuth (bismuthene) can serve as a multimodal nanotherapeutic agent for lung cancer acting through multiple mechanisms, including photothermal therapy (PTT), magnetic field-induced hyperthermia (MH), immunogenic cell death (ICD), and ferroptosis. To investigate this possibility, we synthesized bismuthene from the exfoliation of 3D layered bismuth, prepared facile method that developed involving surfactant-assisted chemical reduction,...
MXene QDs (MQDs) have been effectively used in several fields of biomedical research. Considering the role hyperactivation immune system infectious diseases, especially COVID-19, MQDs stand as a potential candidate nanotherapeutic against viral infections. However, efficacy SARS-CoV-2 infection has not tested yet. In this study, Ti3 C2 are synthesized and their mitigating is investigated. Physicochemical characterization suggests that enriched with abundance bioactive functional groups such...
Abstract The use of nanomaterials for cancer ferroptosis presents a promising avenue research and clinical applications. unique properties nanomaterials, such as their small size, large surface area, ability to be engineered specific tasks, make them ideal candidates inducing therapies. Ferroptosis is new type cell death mechanism that distinct from apoptosis necrosis. It has been shown critical in the treatment various tumors. ferroptotic mainly linked with regulation iron, amino acid,...
Cancer Treatments In article number 2309283, Emel Kirbas Cilingir, Açelya Yilmazer, Roger M. Leblanc, and co-workers discuss the synthesis of copper chlorophyllin-based carbon dots (Chl-D CDs) that exhibit unique spectroscopic traits. These induce a Fenton-like reaction, enhancing photodynamic therapy efficacy through ferroptotic apoptotic pathways. The study explores their biocompatibility potential in cancer treatment, highlighting role reactive oxygen species formation modulation oxidative stress.
Abstract In recent developments, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have emerged as valuable tools for imaging and biosensing. Various modifications on the GQDs with any desired functionality attachment of organic molecules and/or nanostructures allow tuning their photophysical properties well charge transfer dynamics bioimaging applications. This study focuses synthesizing characterizing polyethyleneimine‐functionalized nitrogen‐doped ( NC1 ), Schiff base‐ functionalized NC2 silver nanocomposites...
