This book was released on 2023-03-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biocompatible superparamagnetic ferrite nanoparticles are a type of nanotechnology that has shown great promise in the treatment of cancer by hyperthermia. These nanoparticles are typically composed of iron oxide and are superparamagnetic, meaning that they exhibit strong magnetic properties only when exposed to an external magnetic field. One of the key advantages of these nanoparticles is their biocompatibility, which means that they are non-toxic and do not harm healthy cells in the body. In cancer treatment, these nanoparticles can be designed to specifically target tumor cells, allowing for a more targeted and effective therapy. Hyperthermia treatment involves heating the tumor cells to temperatures above normal body temperature, which causes the cancer cells to die. The superparamagnetic properties of these nanoparticles make them particularly effective for this purpose, as they can be easily heated by exposure to an alternating magnetic field, thereby selectively killing cancer cells while sparing healthy cells. Furthermore, these nanoparticles can also be used for drug delivery, allowing for targeted delivery of chemotherapy agents directly to tumor cells. Overall, biocompatible superparamagnetic ferrite nanoparticles show great potential in the development of new and innovative cancer therapies. The word "nanomaterials" consists of two words i.e. nano and material. The size of materials whose dimensions are equal or less than 100 nm is said to be nanomaterial. These materials have been the subject of numerous investigations in the past two decades due to their unique properties and have a technological impact on future generation devices. It has been known that materials exhibit some remarkable properties at nanoscale those are different from its macro-scale size. There is a drastic change in physical, chemical, magnetic, electrical, optical, electronic, and mechanical properties which are further size-dependent. This happens due to unusual properties at nanoscale viz., large surface to volume ratio of atoms, quantum confinement, high chemical reactivity, presence of dangling bonds.

Download or read book Magnetic Nanoparticles for Targeted Cancer Theranostics written by Zachary R. Stephen and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanotechnology has given scientists new tools for the development of advanced materials for the detection, diagnosis and treatment of disease. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) in particular have been extensively investigated as novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents due to a combination of favorable superparamagnetic properties, biodegradability, and surface properties that allow modification for improved in vivo kinetics and multifunctionality. SPIONs favorable characteristics have further led to their investigation as promising theranostic agents, which combine imaging and therapeutic capabilities in a single nanovector. The combination of imaging and therapy could allow for real-time monitoring of drug delivery and the tailoring of treatment for individual patients with the promise of improved clinical outcomes for patients suffering from cancers such as glioblastoma (GBM). This dissertation is intended to address limitation of conventional clinical cancer treatment including current cancer targeting limitations and poor pharmacokinetic of hydrophobic chemotherapeutics that lead to unacceptable side effects. First, SPIONs were coated with cross-linked, redox-responsive copolymers composed of chitosan and polyethylene glycol (PEG), functionalized with cancer targeting agent chlorotoxin (CTX), and modified with O6-benzylguanine (BG), an O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) inhibitor to improve temozolomide based treatments of GBMs. It was found that CED of the BG loaded SPION were more tolerable than free drug and increased survival 3-fold over untreated animals in an intracranial GBM mouse model. Next, analogs of BG were evaluated for their inhibitory efficacy and modified to allow for polymerization on the SPION surface via hydrazone linkages to facilitate improved drug loading and controlled drug release. Finally, a new synthesis and functionalization strategy for theranostic agents is presented that demonstrated streamlined production, allowed for great control over the display of functional moieties on the SPION surface, increased batch to batch consistency, and provided improved magnetic properties.
