Iron oxide and gold nanoparticles in cancer therapy

Abstract: Abstract. Continuous research activities in the field of nanomedicine in the past decade have, to a great extent, been focused on nanoparticle technologies for cancer therapy. Gold and iron oxide nanoparticles (NP) are two of the most studied inorganic nanomaterials due to their unique optical and magnetic properties. Both types of NPs are emerging as promising systems for anti-tumor drug delivery and for nanoparticle-mediated thermal therapy of cancer. In thermal therapy, localized heating inside tumors or in… Show more

“…Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are one of the two most important inorganic nanomaterials, next to gold nanoparticles, owing to their outstanding magnetic properties [95]. GRPR-targeted cancer imaging efficiency of iron oxide nanoparticles is being investigated to a slightly lower extent than gold nanoparticles but considering their clinical success [96] they still pose a great importance in contemporary cancer management, especially in bioimaging of malignant tumors.…”

“…Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are one of the two most important inorganic nanomaterials, next to gold nanoparticles, owing to their outstanding magnetic properties [ 100 ]. GRPR-targeted cancer imaging efficiency of iron oxide nanoparticles is being investigated to a slightly lower extent than gold nanoparticles, but, considering their clinical success [ 101 ], they still pose a great importance in contemporary cancer management, especially in bioimaging of malignant tumors.…”

“…The application of inorganic coatings such as gold, silver, or silica can improve the functionality and stability of MNPs in an aqueous solution. For instance, coating IONPs with gold can provide many advantages due to the unique characteristics of gold, such as magnetism, low toxicity, a capability to react with biological molecules, and surface plasmonic resonance which can facilitate optical features [ 95 , 96 ].…”
