TLDR
Mouse esophageal tumor growth was found to be significantly inhibited by the photothermal effect of Fe3O4 nanoparticles, resulting in effective tumor reduction, and a morphological examination revealed that after a photothermal therapy, the tumor tissue structure exhibited discontinuation, the cells were significantly shriveled and some cells have finally disintegrated.

Duality of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles in Cancer Therapy: Amplification of Heating Efficiency by Magnetic Hyperthermia and Photothermal Bimodal Treatment

TL;DR: It is reported that iron oxide nanoparticles have the dual capacity to act as both magnetic and photothermal agents, and single-mode treatments (magnetic or laser hyperthermia) reduced tumor growth, while DUAL-mode treatment resulted in complete tumor regression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soft micromachines with programmable motility and morphology

TL;DR: It is found that tail and body morphologies together determine swimming efficiency and, unlike for rigid swimmers, the choice of magnetic field can subtly change the motility of soft microswimmers.

Nanoshell-mediated near-infrared thermal therapy of tumors under magnetic resonance guidance

TL;DR: In vivo studies under magnetic resonance guidance revealed that exposure to low doses of NIR light in solid tumors treated with metal nanoshells reached average maximum temperatures capable of inducing irreversible tissue damage, and found good correlation with histological findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultra-large-scale syntheses of monodisperse nanocrystals.

TL;DR: This work is able to synthesize as much as 40 g of monodisperse nanocrystals in a single reaction, without a size-sorting process, and the particle size could be controlled simply by varying the experimental conditions.

Heating magnetic fluid with alternating magnetic field

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed analytical relationships and computations of power dissipation in magnetic fluid (ferrofluid) subjected to alternating magnetic field and showed that the dissipation results from the orientational relaxation of particles having thermal fluctuations in a viscous medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exchange-coupled magnetic nanoparticles for efficient heat induction

TL;DR: This Letter demonstrates a significant increase in the efficiency of magnetic thermal induction by nanoparticles and finds that the therapeutic efficacy of these nanoparticles is superior to that of a common anticancer drug.
