TL;DR: A novel light‐responsive drug delivery platform based on photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) doped mesoporous silica nanorods (CMSNRs) is developed for on‐demand light‐triggered drug release, which offers remarkable synergistic therapeutic effects in cancer treatment, owing to the on‐ demand release of therapeutics specifically in the tumor under light irradiation.

TL;DR: Since RGO exhibits desirable properties for photothermal therapy, the tumor-specific RGO conjugate developed in this work may serve as a promising theranostic agent that integrates imaging and therapeutic components.

TL;DR: A review of the latest developments in using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) for biomedical imaging can be found in this paper, where a number of unique intrinsic optical properties have been widely used as contrast agents in Raman imaging, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging and photoacoustic imaging in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: It is discovered that after being labeled with MFNPs, mouse mesenchymal stem cells are able to maintain their viability and differentiation ability and a remarkably improved tissue repair effect is observed as the result of magnetically induced accumulation of stem cells in the wound site.

TL;DR: The use of upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) as an exogenous contrast agent to track mouse MSCs (mMSCs) in vivo and highlights the promise of using UCNPs as a new type of ultra-sensitive probes for labeling and in vivo tracking of stem cells at nearly the single cell level.
