Light‐Driven Micromotors to Dissociate Protein Aggregates That Cause Neurodegenerative Diseases

Abstract: Nowadays, microrobots are considered appealing mobile carriers for clinical therapies. In this sense, high expectations against unmet medical challenges have been created around microswimmers that combine autonomous navigation with enhanced abilities to perform specific tasks. Neurodegenerative disorders are incurable diseases that have a huge impact on the quality of life for millions of people. To date, protein disaggregation (i.e., dissociation of mature protein fibrils on the origin of the given illness) h… Show more

“…Finally, one doublet of peaks were observed at 530.10 and 530.86 eV in the O 1s region. The main peak observed at 530.10 eV corresponds to the lattice oxygen of BiVO 4 while the peak at 530.86 eV is related to surface-terminating hydroxyl groups . X-ray diffraction (XRD) data were recorded to evaluate the crystal structure of BiVO 4 and Fe 3 O 4 (see Figure S2).…”

“…The main peak observed at 530.10 eV corresponds to the lattice oxygen of BiVO 4 while the peak at 530.86 eV is related to surface-terminating hydroxyl groups. 34 X-ray diffraction (XRD) data were recorded to evaluate the crystal structure of BiVO 4 and Fe 3 O 4 (see Figure S2). The Xray diffraction pattern of BiVO 4 shows highly preferential orientation along the pure monoclinic sheelite phase without any other phases (red curve).…”

“…A unique plant genotype can be regenerated from callus tissue obtained from single cell clones. [15][16][17][18] Currently, nano/microrobots technology is a significant field of nanotechnology that can make different task to load and transport cargo [19][20][21][22] to detect compounds, [23] drug delivery and therapy of tissues, cells, pathogens, [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] as well as water remediation. [28] Moreover, micro/nanorobots can be propelled by external sources such as light illumination, magnetic, and ultrasound field or by chemical field.…”

“…Second, these micromachines require a high concentration of toxic hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) as the fuel to function. [4,19,[22][23][24] Most importantly, the rigid inorganic composition limits their chemical modularity, and additional posttreatments are often needed to overhaul their photophysical properties. [19] Recently, metal-free active organic systems such as graphitic carbon nitride microtubes (micromotor, bubble propulsion, and H 2 O 2 ) and extended π-conjugated donoracceptor photocatalysts have been reported.…”
