A Lot of Promise for ZnO-5FU Nanoparticles Cytotoxicity against Breast Cancer Cell Lines

RETRACTED: Biogenic synthesis and cytotoxic effects of silver nanoparticles mediated by white rot fungi

“…Additionally, the antimicrobial perspective of AgNPs against numerous other viruses, such as hepatitis B, respiratory syncytial virus, and herpes simplex virus type make AgNPs possess intrinsic cytotoxic action toward diseases [ 19 ]. Currently, cancer is a leading cause of death across the world, which directs scientists worldwide to find several therapies for treating numerous kinds of cancer cells [ 20 ]. Consequently, chemotherapy involving the use of cytotoxic agents is the further most normally applied treatment to handle several kinds of cancer cells [ 21 ].…”

Antitumor and Radiosensitizing Effects of Zinc Oxide-Caffeic Acid Nanoparticles against Solid Ehrlich Carcinoma in Female Mice

“…Numerous studies mentioned that ZnO-NPs treatment resulted in a deposition and recognizable peak at sub-G 0 /G 1 that indicates the apoptotic and dead cell population. 109 -112 Additionally, Murad et al 113 reported that ionizing radiation decreased cell viability of human glioblastoma T98G cell line, and considerably enhanced the sub G 0 /G 1 phase. Several investigations reported that CA or its related compound caffeic acid phenyl ester (CAPE) successfully repressed the cancer cells propagation in vitro, through the activation of cell cycle arrest at the G 0 /G 1 phase, in different cell lines.…”

The controlled synthesis and DFT investigation of novel (0D)–(3D) ZnS/SiO2 heterostructures for photocatalytic applications

“…3,19,[32][33][34] Herein, ZnS was prepared using a wet precipitation method in the presence of CTAB, which was used as a pore-directing agent, together with in situ impregnation on silica nanoparticles. [35][36][37][38] The photocatalytic activity of the fabricated ZnS/SiO 2 nanocomposite was investigated through the photodegradation of the dyes methylene blue and eosin as pollutant models under UV irradiation, and complete degradation of both dyes was observed within 2 h. This can be ascribed to the change in the bandgap energy of ZnS resulting from its incorporation on the silica matrix. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) measurements conrmed the complete degradation of the organic pollutants into eco-friendly species, and the mechanism of pollutant degradation in the current setup has been investigated using a scavenger study.…”
