Single walled carbon nanohorns as photothermal cancer agents
Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2011AbstractBackgroundNanoparticles have significant potential as selective photo‐absorbing agents for laser based cancer treatment. This study investigates the use of single walled carbon nanohorns (SWNHs) as thermal enhancers when excited by near infrared (NIR) light for tumor cell destruction.MethodsAbsorption spectra of SWNHs in deionized water at ...

Photothermal therapy (PTT) is impeded by limited light penetration depth and cellular heat resistance induced by overexpressed heat shock proteins. Herein, we propose a ferrocene (Fc)-based supramolecular photothermal agent (PTA) to improve the therapeutic efficacy.

AbstractPhotothermal disinfection is an emerging and efficient therapeutic method for treating various infections. However, the therapeutic efficacy is hindered by the poor tissue penetration of light. While tissue optical clearance technology can enhance light transmission, the stratum corneum impedes the delivery of clearing agents to deeper tissues.

A BRD4‐Targeting Photothermal Agent for Controlled Protein Degradation
Angewandte Chemie International EditionAbstractBRD4 protein plays a pivotal role in cell cycle regulation and differentiation. Disrupting the activity of BRD4 has emerged as a promising strategy for inhibiting the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. Herein, we introduced a BRD4‐targeting photothermal agent for controlled protein degradation, aiming to enhance low‐temperature ...
