Glass-Ceramic-Mediated, Magnetic-Field-Induced Localized Hyperthermia: Response of a Murine Mammary Carcinoma

Abstract: Hyperthermia has been found to be a useful modality for cancer therapy. In this report, a biocompatible, ferrimagnetic glass-ceramic capable of inducing localized hyperthermia by hysteresis heating upon exposure to an alternating magnetic field is presented. When the glass-ceramic was placed in the region of a subcutaneously transplanted, weakly antigenic breast carcinoma and subjected to the magnetic field, sufficient temperature rise was obtained to cause significant (approximately 50%) tumor regrowth delay … Show more

“…Finally, mice bearing breast carcinoma and implanted with a glass-ceramic were exposed to an alternating magnetic field (500 Oe=50mT and 10 kHz) and the authors observed a significant tumor growth delay without determining the local temperature achieved [231]. The available data indicate not only the feasibility, but also the potential of hyperthermic implants to treat bone tumors, despite too frequent lacunar characterization of the heating parameters.…”

“…In the 1980s, Luderer et al 8 reported that the ferrimagnetic glass-ceramics containing lithium ferrite and hematite crystallites in the system Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -P 2 O 5 can be useful as a thermoseed for hyperthermia in vivo. The heat generation of the materials is not, however, enough to kill the malignant carcinoma.…”

“…[5][6][7] The concept of inducing intracellular hyperthermia was proposed by Luderer et al since 1983. 8 The magnetite particles were capable of producing localized hyperthermia by hysteresis heating upon exposure to an alternating magnetic field. 9 In these studies, it has been reported that elevated temperatures could be with a selective effect on cancer cells.…”
