Journal ArticleDOI
Near-Infrared-Light-Activatable Nanomaterial-Mediated Phototheranostic Nanomedicines: An Emerging Paradigm for Cancer Treatment.
Raviraj Vankayala,Kuo Chu Hwang +1 more
TL;DR: Near‐infrared (NIR) light‐activated nanomaterial‐mediated phototherapies, including photothermal and photodynamic therapies, provide an alternative means for spatially and temporally controlled minimally invasive treatments of cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Designing multi-branched gold nanoechinus for NIR light activated dual modal photodynamic and photothermal therapy in the second biological window.
TL;DR: This is the first literature example of the destruction of tumors in NIR window II induced by dual modal nanomaterial-mediated photodynamic and photothermal therapy (NmPDT & NmPTT).
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal nanoparticles sensitize the formation of singlet oxygen.
TL;DR: An unprecedented observation is reported that singlet oxygen can be formed through direct sensitization by metal nanoparticles (M NPs, M=Ag, Pt, and Au) without the presence of any organic photosensitizers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gold nanoshells-mediated bimodal photodynamic and photothermal cancer treatment using ultra-low doses of near infra-red light.
TL;DR: In this article, gold nanoshells were shown to be able to effectively convert photon energy to heat, leading to hyperthermia and suppression of tumor growths in mice, and they can also emit fluorescence, sensitize formation of singlet oxygen and exert nanomaterial-mediated photodynamic therapeutic (NmPDT) complete destruction of solid tumors in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
First Demonstration of Gold Nanorods‐Mediated Photodynamic Therapeutic Destruction of Tumors via Near Infra‐Red Light Activation
TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that Au NRs alone can sensitize formation of singlet oxygen and exert dramatic PDT effects on complete destrcution of tumors in mice under very low LED/laser doses of single photon NIR light excitation.
