Multifunctional Iron Oxide Nanoparticles for Diagnostics, Therapy and Macromolecule Delivery

Abstract: In recent years, multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) consisting of either metal (e.g. Au), or magnetic NP (e.g. iron oxide) with other fluorescent components such as quantum dots (QDs) or organic dyes have been emerging as versatile candidate systems for cancer diagnosis, therapy, and macromolecule delivery such as micro ribonucleic acid (microRNA). This review intends to highlight the recent advances in the synthesis and application of multifunctional NPs (mainly iron oxide) in theranostics, an area used to c… Show more

“…Currently, super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are used that incorporate positron emitters (e.g., 52-Mn, 59-Fe, and 124-I) and contain small surface molecules (peptides, organic molecules) that bind to tumor tissue [323,324]. Although the physiological functionality of the PET probe is limited by its attachment to a large nanoparticle, the combination provides high spatial resolution (MR) with high sensitivity (PET).…”

“…Они перспек-тивны для использования в катализе [1], при доставке лекарств [2] и генов [3], изучении микрореологических процессов [4], а также в качестве контрастных жидко-стей [5]. Несмотря на то что свойства металлов триады железа в массивных телах хорошо изучены, структурные и магнитные характеристики в наноразмерных объектах, таких как наночастицы, нанопроволоки и нанотрубки, требуют дополнительного исследования.…”

“…[22][23][24][25] SPION can be further functionalized by surface coating using proteins, peptides, antibodies, polymers, carbohydrates, aptamers, DNA, RNA, or oligosaccharides. 17 The composition and characteristics of the SPION surface have a strong influence on their stability, distribution, and biocompatibility, with regard to cellular uptake and cytotoxicity. Although commercially available SPION have been approved for human use, they present some risks when used for treatment purposes, and these are currently being reevaluated.…”

“…They exhibit high magnetization in the presence of an external magnetic field, whereas this magnetization is lost when the external magnetic field is removed. 17 MRI is an important noninvasive tool to visualize organs, tissues, and pathological changes or treatment outcomes. 18,19 In the field of chronic, systemic inflammatory autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, there is a need for close and regular monitoring of disease activity.…”
