Sonodynamically-induced anticancer effects by functionalized fullerenes.
BACKGROUND Functionalized fullerenes, such as polyhydroxy fullerenes (PHF), have attracted particular attention due to their water solubility and their potential application in tumor imaging and therapy as carbon nanomaterials. In this study, the sonodynamically-induced antitumor effect of PHF was investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sonodynamically-induced antitumor effects of PHF in combinat...
متن کاملApplications of Functionalized Fullerenes in Tumor Theranostics
Functionalized fullerenes with specific physicochemical properties have been developed for cancer diagnosis and therapy. Notably, metallofullerene is a new class of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast-enhancing agent, and may have promising applications for clinical diagnosis. Polyhydroxylated and carboxyl fullerenes have been applied to photoacoustic imaging. Moreover, in recent years, f...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy with Functionalized Fullerenes: Quantitative Structure-activity Relationships.
Photosensitive dyes or photo sensitizers (PS) in combination with visible light and oxygen produce reactive oxygen species that kill cells in the process known as photodynamic therapy (PDT). Antimicrobial PDT employs PS that is selective for microbial cells and is a new treatment for infections. Most antimicrobial PS is based on tetrapyrrole or phenothiazinium structures that have been synthesi...
متن کاملFullerenes C 60 self - assembled on functionalized surfaces
Memory devices play an important role in electronics market leading to a growing research interest in the next generation of non-volatile memory cells. Numerous groups [1,2] work on top-down memory cells based on fullerenes C60 that are generally embedded in insulating polymers where they act as storage sites. Beside these studies, a reaction path between amines and fullerenes [3] may be used t...
متن کاملMolecular self-assembly of functionalized fullerenes on a metal surface.
We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of the self-assembly of C60 molecules functionalized with long alkane chains on the (111) surface of silver. We find that the conformation of the functionalized C60 changes upon adsorption on Ag(111) and that the unit cell size in the self-assembled monolayer is determined by the interactions between the functional groups. We show that C6...
