Data on medical applications of cerium oxide nanoparticles CeO2 (CONP) are promising, yet information regarding their action in cells is incomplete and there are conflicting reports about in vitro toxicity. Herein, we have studied cytotoxic effect of CONP in several cancer and normal cell lines and
Side effect of radiation therapy (RT) remains the most challenging issue for pancreatic cancer treatment. In this report we determined whether and how cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) sensitize pancreatic cancer cells to RT. CONP pretreatment enhanced radiation-induced reactive oxygen species
The anti-cancer activity of metal ions in the lanthanide group is being considered recently. It has been reported that cerium salts might stimulate the metabolism and therefore, produce anti-cancer effects. However, little is known about the effects of protein-cerium complex in controlling cancer
The biomedical application of cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) is a focal point of research for a few years. The biochemical effects of nanoceria depend on various factors including particle size, oxidation state of cerium, oxygen vacancies on the surface, use of dispersants or coatings, pH
Cultured human gastric cancer cell line PAMC82 was studied in vitro to further verify anti-tumor effect sof rare-earth elements and explore their mechanism of tumor inhibition. Inhibitory effects of elements lanthanum and cerium on cell growth, reverse effects of them on reduction of malignancy and
Nanotechnology is becoming an important field of biomedical and clinical research and the application of nanoparticles in disease may offer promising advances in treatment of many diseases, especially cancer. Malignant melanoma is one of the most aggressive forms of cancer and its incidence is
Cerium selenium nanobiocomposites are novel lung cancer drug as they possess combined anti-cancer property of nanocomposite with l-asparaginase working in synergetic manner. Cerium selenium nanobiocomposites were synthesized using simple co-precipitation method. The size of the nanocomposite was
Tumor hypoxia is typically presented in the central region of solid tumors, which is mainly caused by an inadequate blood flow and oxygen supply. In the conventional treatment of hypoxic human tumors, not only the oxygen-dependent photodynamic therapy (PDT), but also antitumor drug-based
The diverse abilities of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) have encouraged researchers to pursue CONPs as a therapeutic agent to treat a number of diseases, including cancer. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown CONPs to be toxic to cancer cells, inhibit invasion, and sensitize cancer cells to
Much information is accumulating on the effect of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) as cell-protective agents, reducing oxidative stress through their unique ability of scavenging noxious reactive oxygen species via an energy-free, auto-regenerative redox cycle, where superoxides and peroxides are
Side effects of radiation therapy (RT) remain the most challenging issue for pancreatic cancer treatment. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) are currently being tested in pre-clinical trials as an adjuvant to sensitize pancreatic cancer cells to RT and protect normal tissues from the harmful side
With the development of many nanomedicines designed for tumor therapy, the diverse abilities of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) have encouraged researchers to pursue CONPs as a therapeutic agent to treat cancer. Research data have shown CONPs to be toxic to cancer cells, to inhibit invasion, and
A technique is described for the induction of metastasizing bone tumours in rats by local inoculation of 144cerium. Bone sarcomas develop in 90% of the animals and 74% of these had lung metastases. The tumours can be easily cultured and maintained by serial transplantations. Preliminary data of
The reliable and sensitive detection of cancer-specific biomarkers is important for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Hence, detection of these biomarkers has to be reliably and rapidly performed in diverse settings. A limitation of the conventional biomarker-screening method of enzyme-linked
Nanoparticle (NP) and photosensitizer (PS) conjugates capable of X-ray photodynamic therapy (X-PDT) are a research focus due to their potential applications in cancer treatment. Combined with X-PDT, appropriate imaging properties of the nanocomposite will make it suitable for theranostics of deep
