Photodynamic therapy in brain cancer: mechanisms, clinical and preclinical studies and therapeutic challenges

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2023
Cancer is a main cause of death and preferred methods of therapy depend on the type of tumor and its location. Gliomas are the most common primary intracranial tumor, accounting for 81% of malignant brain tumors.

Nanodiamond Quantum Sensors for Probing Free Radical Biology

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Free radicals play key roles in cellular signaling and disease but remain difficult to measure in living systems. Nanodiamonds (NDs) with nitrogen‐vacancy (NV) centers enable quantum sensing of local magnetic noise via T₁ relaxometry, providing nondestructive radical detection in living cells.

Antifungal photodynamic therapy

Microbiological Research, 2008
In photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT), a combination of a sensitising drug and visible light causes selective destruction of microbial cells. The ability of light-drug combinations to kill microorganisms has been known for over 100 years. However, it is only recently with the beginning of the search for alternative treatments for antibiotic-

Light‐Actuated Fiber‐Climbing Inchworm Robot Toward Endoluminal Navigation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A kirigami‐inspired soft inchworm robot harnesses optical energy from a customized side‐emitting optical fiber, guaranteeing its propulsion along the fiber body. The wavelength‐selective responsiveness of dye‐functionalized liquid crystal elastomers and the application of temporal illumination patterns enable sequential control of robot components. The
