Hyperpolarized Long-T1 Silicon Nanoparticles for Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]
Silicon nanoparticles are experimentally investigated as a potential hyperpolarized, targetable MRI imaging agent. Nuclear T_1 times at room temperature for a variety of Si nanoparticles are found to be remarkably long (10^2 to 10^4 s) - roughly ...

Therapeutic strategies for MMAE‐resistant bladder cancer through DPP4 inhibition
We established monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE)‐resistant bladder cancer (BC) cell lines by exposure to progressively increasing concentrations of MMAE in vitro. RNA sequencing showed DPP4 expression was increased in MMAE‐resistant BC cells. Both si‐DPP4 and the DPP4 inhibitor sitagliptin suppressed the viability of MMAE‐resistant BC cells.

Order-disorder phase change in embedded Si nano-particles
We investigated the relative stability of the amorphous vs crystalline nanoparticles of size ranging between 0.8 and 1.8 nm. We found that, at variance from bulk systems, at low T small nanoparticles are amorphous and they undergo to an amorphous-to ...

Three-body radiation dynamics in systems with anisotropic nanoparticles
The time evolution of temperatures of anisotropic nanoparticles in two and three-body systems are simulated for various relative orientations. Nanoparticles are immersed in a thermal bath at constant temperature. It is shown that in two-body systems, the
