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.
Abstract: The properties of core–shell nanoparticles can be tuned so that they efficiently convert radiation into heat, leading to therapeutic results that are competitive with commercial drug treatments.

TL;DR: The dramatic delivery, protection, and sensing capabilities of GO-nS in living cells indicate that graphene oxide could be a robust candidate for many biological fields, such as DNA and protein analysis, gene and drug delivering, and intracellular tracking.
Abstract: Graphene has shown fascinating applications in bionanotechnology, including DNA sensing, protein assays, and drug delivery. However, exploration of graphene with intracellular monitoring and in situ molecular probing is still at an early stage. In this regard, we have designed an aptamer-carboxyfluorescein (FAM)/graphene oxide nanosheet (GO-nS) nanocomplex to investigate its ability for molecular probing in living cells. Results demonstrate that uptake of aptamer-FAM/GO-nS nanocomplex and cellular target monitoring were realized successfully. The dramatic delivery, protection, and sensing capabilities of GO-nS in living cells indicate that graphene oxide could be a robust candidate for many biological fields, such as DNA and protein analysis, gene and drug delivering, and intracellular tracking.

TL;DR: This tutorial review will highlight the findings and describe the evolution of the fluorescent core-shell silica nanoparticle concept towards integration of multiple functionalities including mesoporosity, metal nanoshells and quantitative chemical sensing that point towards the development of "lab on a particle" architectures with promising prospects for nanobiotechnology, drug development and beyond.
Abstract: Novel nanoscale fluorescent materials are integral to the progress of emergent fields such as nanobiotechnology and facilitate new research in a variety of contexts. Sol–gel derived silica is an excellent host material for creating fluorescent nanoparticles by the inclusion of covalently-bound organic dyes. Significant enhancements in the brightness and stability of organic dye emission can be achieved for silica-based core–shell nanoparticle architectures at length scales down to tens of nanometers with narrow size distributions. This tutorial review will highlight these findings and describe the evolution of the fluorescent core–shell silica nanoparticle concept towards integration of multiple functionalities including mesoporosity, metal nanoshells and quantitative chemical sensing. These developments point towards the development of “lab on a particle” architectures with promising prospects for nanobiotechnology, drug development and beyond.
