Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro comparison of the photothermal anticancer activity of graphene nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes.
Zoran Marković,Ljubica Harhaji-Trajkovic,Biljana Todorovic-Markovic,Dejan P. Kepić,Katarina Arsikin,Svetlana Jovanovic,Aleksandar Pantovic,Miroslav D. Dramićanin,Vladimir Trajkovic +8 more
TL;DR: Graphene nanoparticles performed significantly better than CNT in inducing photothermal death of U251 human glioma cells in vitro and could be largely explained by their better dispersivity, which has been supported by a simple calculation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomedical potential of the reactive oxygen species generation and quenching by fullerenes (C60)
TL;DR: The mechanisms and biological consequences of ROS generation/quenching by C60 are analyzed, focusing on the influence that different physico-chemical alterations exert on its ROS-related biological behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene quantum dots as autophagy-inducing photodynamic agents
Zoran Marković,Biljana Ristic,Katarina Arsikin,Djordje G. Klisic,Ljubica Harhaji-Trajkovic,Biljana Todorovic-Markovic,Dejan P. Kepić,Tamara Kravic-Stevovic,Svetlana Jovanovic,Marina Milenković,Dušan Milivojević,Vladimir Bumbasirevic,Miroslav D. Dramićanin,Vladimir Trajkovic +13 more
TL;DR: Electrochemically produced GQD irradiated with blue light generates reactive oxygen species, including singlet oxygen, and kill U251 human glioma cells by causing oxidative stress and a genetic inactivation of autophagy-essential LC3B protein partly abrogated the photodynamic cytotoxicity of G QD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photodynamic antibacterial effect of graphene quantum dots.
Biljana Ristic,Marina Milenković,Ivana Dakić,Biljana Todorovic-Markovic,Momir Milosavljević,Milica D. Budimir,Verica Paunovic,Miroslav D. Dramićanin,Zoran Marković,Vladimir Trajkovic +9 more
TL;DR: Electrochemically produced graphene quantum dots (GQD), a new class of carbon nanoparticles, generate reactive oxygen species when photoexcited, and kill two strains of pathogenic bacteria, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distinct cytotoxic mechanisms of pristine versus hydroxylated fullerene.
Aleksandra Isakovic,Zoran Marković,Biljana Todorovic-Markovic,Nadezda Nikolic,Sanja Vranjes-Djuric,Marija Mirković,Miroslav D. Dramićanin,Ljubica Harhaji,Nevena Raicevic,Zoran S. Nikolic,Vladimir Trajkovic +10 more
TL;DR: Unlike polyhydroxylated C60 that exerts mainly antioxidant/cytoprotective and only mild ROS-independent pro-apoptotic activity, pure crystalline C60 seems to be endowed with strong pro-oxidant capacity responsible for the rapid necrotic cell death.
