Boron encapsulated in a liposome can be used for combinational neutron capture therapy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Boron neutron capture therapy is a type of cancer therapy but is associated with insufficient boron delivery and with poor biocompatibility. Here, the authors constructed boronated lipids to generate - boronsome - and show the system can reduce tumour ...

The basis and advances in clinical application of boron neutron capture therapy

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2021
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) was first proposed as early as 1936, and research on BNCT has progressed relatively slowly but steadily. BNCT is a potentially useful tool for cancer treatment that selectively damages cancer cells while sparing ...

Boron Vehiculating Nanosystems for Neutron Capture Therapy in Cancer Treatment

open access: yesCells, 2022
Boron neutron capture therapy is a low-invasive cancer therapy based on the neutron fission process that occurs upon thermal neutron irradiation of 10B-containing compounds; this process causes the release of alpha particles that selectively damage ...

Site‐Selective B─H Activation via HAT Toward Xanthyl‐closo‐Carboranes as Bench‐Stable Precursors of Organosulfur Boron Clusters

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A light mediated direct regioselective B─H functionalization, via hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), is described. Unexplored xanthyl‐closo‐carboranes as novel bench‐stable and versatile platforms to access sulfur‐containing boron clusters are reported for the first time.

The Birmingham Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) project : developments towards selective internal particle therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper will review progress on two aspects of the Birmingham BNCT project. Firstly on evaluation of the effects of high and low LET radiations when delivered simultaneously, and secondly on attempts to optimise delivery of the boron carrier compound ...

Dosimetry for boron neutron capture therapy developed and verified at the accelerator based neutron source VITA

open access: yesFrontiers in Nuclear Engineering, 2023
The method of boron neutron capture therapy for malignant tumors, proposed in 1936, is beginning to enter clinical practice. The development of dosimetry tools for characterization of therapeutic mixed neutron-photon beam and assessing the patient’s ...

Boron distribution in the normal rat brain after intravenous injection of boronophenylalanine-fructose [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is an experimental form of radiation therapy for malignant brain tumors and peripheral melanoma. The micro-distribution of the boron compound is critical to determine the radiation effects for both tumors and normal ...
