“…Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, nanoparticles (NPs) have been exhaustively explored as platforms to deliver imaging and therapeutic agents to target sites. A wide number of nanosized delivery vehicles have been tested for theranostic applications, including quantum dots, superparamagnetic iron oxides NPs, gold NPs, liposomes, or niosomes [4, 5]. Polymer-based NPs are expected to play a significant role in the dawning era of nanotheranostics for personalized medicine [4], as they have shown improved efficacy and selectivity of entrapped or conjugated agents via enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect or through a prolonged circulation half-life and sustained drug release [1, 6].…”

“…Thereafter, the samples were irradiated at a distance of 10 cm at a dose of 5 Gy radiation dose in 2 min, then incubated at 37 °C for 72 hr at 5% CO 2 . After 72 hr WST test procedure was applied and absorbance values were calculated for each well similarly with our previous work …”

“…A variety of drugs with a wide variety of solubilities may be trapped between the aqueous core or membrane bilayers of these structures. Thus, these nanosystems can function as multifunctional platforms that allow the loading of a wide variety of drug molecules . Niosomes can be used for receptor targeted therapy if they combine with a receptor targeted probe (peptide, antibody, or other receptor specific molecules).…”

“…Protoporphyrins are suitable intermediates for photodynamic therapy due to their light‐sensitive properties. At the same time, PP‐IX has more radiosensitizing effect for cancer cells than healthy cells during radiotherapy . In this study, a novel multi‐functional theranostic agent called ‘Niosome‐MnO‐DTPA‐PP(IX)’ structures were fabricated with imaging potentials such as MR and fluorescence imaging as well as selective therapeutic potential of photodynamic and radiotherapy and these nano structures are found to be effective for photodynamic therapy due to the increased stability, lower cytotoxicity and higher affinity towards prostate cancer cells.…”
