Photothermally induced delayed tissue death.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report pronounced delayed tissue death in photothermal surgery performed on the livers of live healthy rats with highly concentrated sunlight (ultrabright noncoherent light). Exposure times and power levels were selected to produce immediate necroses of the order of hundreds of cubic millimeters. Pathology reveals that lesion volumes increase by up to a factor of 5 within approximately 24 h after surgery, and then stabilize. Islands of viable cells can persist within damaged tissue, in the immediate vicinity of blood vessels, but also necrose within about 48 h.

Kinetics of cell death triggered photothermally using folate-conjugated gold nanoparticles and various laser irradiation conditions in cancer cells
Introduction: In this study, we explore in detail cell-specific targeting efficacy of nano-photo-thermal therapy (NPTT) method and the resulting responses that are induced by variable laser intensities and exposure times in cancer cells to induce selective apoptosis. We delineate the synthesis of a high-yielding synthetic F-AuNPs by tailoring the surface of gold nanoparticles ...
متن کاملInduced tissue cell death by magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia for cancer treatment: an in silico study
In this paper, we simulate magnetic hyperthermia process on a mathematical phantom model representing cancer tumor and its surrounding healthy tissues. The temperature distribution throughout the phantom model is obtained by solving the bio-heat equations and the consequent cell death amount is calculated using correlations between the tissue local temperature and the cell death rate. To have a...

Photothermally driven volume transitions in polymer microgels have promising applications for site-specific drug delivery and photodynamic therapy. We studied the temperature-induced volume phase transitions for a series of thermoresponsive microgels of various compositions to find a system with a sharp transition in the physiologically relevant range spanning 38-41 degrees C in 0.01 M phosphat...
