Posted: Feb 17, 2015 Plasmonic nanocrystals for combined photothermal and photodynamic cancer therapies (Nanowerk Spotlight) Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a form of cancer treatment where a ...

The AIEgens have a stronger ability to generate ROS and produces a stronger immune effect in the aggregated state. Even so, the immunity induced by photodynamic therapy is still difficult to ...

In order to monitor the photodynamic treatment process, SERS technology is used to monitor the dynamic change of ROS in the tumor microenvironment during photodynamic therapy by recognizing the ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.240013, discusses a NIR-triggered on-site NO/ROS/RNS nanoreactor. Phototherapy is a safe and effective method for tumor ...

Photodynamic therapy is often used to treat brain tumors because of its specificity—it can target very small regions containing cancerous cells while sparing the normal cells around it from ...

Photodynamic therapy can be less effective in solid tumors within which the oxygen level is too low to generate enough ROS. Therefore, the scientists used a modified system that partly recycles ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) produces singlet oxygen and reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage tumor cells and the vasculature. The resulting effect is a balance between photooxidations through ...

The ability of the DOX/TPOR 4 @CB [7] 4 nanocomposite to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) was critical to its photodynamic therapy efficacy. The fluorescence-based assay indicated a significant ...
