Magnetic nanoparticles are highly desirable for biomedical research and treatment of cancer especially when combined with hyperthermia. The efficacy of nanoparticle-based therapies could be improved by generating radioactive nanoparticles with a convenient decay time and which simultaneously have
Although great advances have been made in photothermal therapy, the efforts hitherto have mainly achieved antitumor effects in mice with a subcutaneous tumor model, which is less clinically relevant. Therefore, it is very urgent to make further progress in investigating the possibility of larger
Permanent male sterilization has been recognized as useful tools for the development of neuter experimental animals and fattening livestock, as well as efficient control of pet overpopulation. Traditional routes such as surgical ways, chemical injections, and anti-fertility vaccines have addressed
Photothermal ablation (PTA) therapy has been viewed as an invasive option for cancer therapy with minimal deconstruction of healthy tissues. In this study, a potent candidate of (NH4)xWO3 nanocube was developed for PTA treatment of metastatic breast cancer in the second near-infrared (NIR) window.
OBJECTIVE
Studies of the curative effects of hyperthermia and radiation therapy on treatment of cancer show a strong evidence of a synergistic enhancement when both radiation and hyperthermia modalities are applied simultaneously. Varieties of tissue heating approaches developed up to date still
OBJECTIVE
A combination of hyperthermia and radiation in the treatment of cancer has been proven to provide better tumor control than radiation administered as a monomodality, without an increase in complications or serious toxicities. Moreover, concurrent administration of hyperthermia and
The stability and safety of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) are crucial for accurate diagnosis and real-time monitor of tumor development. Paramagnetic Mn2+ as nonlanthanide metal ion has been widely studied for use in T1-MRI CAs, but unfortunately,
Heavy metal in the physical environment may alter immune function and predispose to develop asthma in human. Our study was aimed to investigate associations between urinary heavy metals and asthma in adults. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted with 3425 subjects aged 20 years and
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an effective treatment modality with high selectivity for tumor suppression. However, the inflammatory responses caused by PTT may lead to adverse reactions including tumor recurrence and therapeutic resistance, which are regarded as major problems for PTT. Here, a
The deployment of hyperthermia-based treatments for cancer therapy has captured the attention of different researchers worldwide. In particular, the application of light-responsive nanomaterials to mediate hyperthermia has revealed promising results in several pre-clinical assays. Unlike
The type of lung disease caused by metal compounds depends on the nature of the offending agent, its physicochemical form, the dose, exposure conditions and host factors. The fumes or gaseous forms of several metals, e.g. cadmium (Cd), manganese (Mn), mercury (Hg), nickel carbonyl (Nl(CO)4, zinc
