Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Iron chelators as therapeutic agents against Pneumocystis carinii [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1994
Iron plays a critical role in host-parasite interactions, and iron chelators have been demonstrated to serve as effective adjunct therapeutic agents against malaria. The effects of the parenteral iron chelator deferoxamine (DFO) on the growth of rat-derived Pneumocystis carinii were studied in a human fibroblast cell culture model and in two in vivo ...
