“…142 Likewise, these magnetic nanoparticle platforms were further expanded for more than one functionalized targeting (e.g., for anticancer agents, like doxorubicin, and tumor-targeting aptamers, like AS1411) and for high magnetization structures using diisopropylamine (reducing agent with surface stabilization properties)-based polymeric magnetic nanocarriers as a promising theranostic modality against image-guided breast cancers. 143,144 Interestingly, in 2013, Burke et al developed nanoparticles (carbon nanotubes)-mediated localized PTT against "triple negative" (HER2, estrogen, and progesterone receptors) breast cancer stem cells (CD44 high /CD24 low ) that are recognized as the most difficult to treat. The beauty of this carbon nanotube (CNT) system is its efficient antenna behavior, i.e., absorbance under electromagnetic radiation and thermal conductance.…”
