Liposomes versus metallic nanostructures: differences in the process of knowledge translation in cancer

Abstract: This research maps the knowledge translation process for two different types of nanotechnologies applied to cancer: liposomes and metallic nanostructures (MNs). We performed a structural analysis of citation networks and text mining supported in controlled vocabularies. In the case of liposomes, our results identify subnetworks (invisible colleges) associated with different therapeutic strategies: nanopharmacology, hyperthermia, and gene therapy. Only in the pharmacological strategy was an organized knowledge … Show more

“…[8][9][10][11]23] Translational research would occupy an in-between topological position in the network connecting the basic with the clinical research. [8][9][10][11]23] Similarly, papers that are in the same observation scale (molecular, cellular, organism, population) tend to stick together. [11] Moreover, it is completely feasible to identify research communities that work on common problems with similar approaches using network analysis tools like those based in the Newman's modularity.…”

“…[11] Moreover, it is completely feasible to identify research communities that work on common problems with similar approaches using network analysis tools like those based in the Newman's modularity. [8][9][10][11]20] The distribution of citations and information among the papers and patents follows a power law function (were a variable is the power of other). [24] In the case of citations, a power law distribution implies that a very few number of papers (or patents) receive a huge quantity of citation and the most of manuscripts are few or never cited.…”
