Nanoshells for Photothermal Cancer Therapy

2010
Cancer is a leading cause of death in the United States and contributes to yearly rising health care costs. Current methods of treating cancer involve surgical removal of easily accessible tumors, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. These methods do not always result in full treatment of the cancer and can in many cases damage healthy cells both ...

Photothermal-driven disassembly of naphthalocyanine nano-photosensitizers for photothermal and photodynamic therapy

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2023
The disassembly of nanomaterials is of particular interest for high-quality imaging and targeted therapies in the field of nanomedicine. In this study, we developed a novel strategy for fabricating self-assembled naphthalocyanine photosensitizers (SiNc@CEL) with intrinsically unique photochemical and photophysical properties.

Reprogramming Tumor Microenvironment with Photothermal Therapy

Bioconjugate Chemistry, 2020
The tumor microenvironment significantly influences cancer progression and therapeutic response. Reprogramming of tumor microenvironment has emerged as a strategy to assist conventional cancer treatment. In recent years, photothermal therapy has received considerable attention owing to its noninvasiveness, high temporal-spatial resolution, and minimal ...

Gene-engineered exosomes-thermosensitive liposomes hybrid nanovesicles by the blockade of CD47 signal for combined photothermal therapy and cancer immunotherapy.

Biomaterials, 2021
CD47, overexpressed on kinds of tumor cells, activates a "don't eat me" signal through binding to signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα), leading to immune escape from the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS).

Temperature-Sensitive Lipid-Coated Carbon Nanotubes for Synergistic Photothermal Therapy and Gene Therapy.

ACS Nano, 2021
The combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and gene therapy (GT) shows great potential to achieve synergistic anti-tumor activity. However, the lack of a controlled release of genes from carriers remains a severe hindrance.
