Silver Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Characterization, Properties, Applications, and Therapeutic Approaches
TL;DR: This review extensively discusses the multifunctional bio-applications of AgNPs; for example, as antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral,Anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenic, and anti-cancer agents, and the mechanism of the anti- cancer activity of Ag NPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
New photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy
TL;DR: The dual-specificity of PDT relies on accumulation of the PS in diseased tissue and also on localized light delivery, and future directions include photochemical internalization, genetically encoded protein PSs, theranostics, two-photon absorption PDT, and sonodynamic therapy using ultrasound.

The Ki‐67 protein: From the known and the unknown
Thomas Scholzen,Johannes Gerdes +1 more
TL;DR: Although the Ki‐67 protein is well characterized on the molecular level and extensively used as a proliferation marker, the functional significance still remains unclear; there are indications, however, that Ki‐ 67 protein expression is an absolute requirement for progression through the cell‐division cycle.
