“…143 Fullerene C60 has also been used as an efficient PS for PDT. 144 It can generate ROS upon radiation, which can react with biological molecules such as unsaturated lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids and causes cell death through oxidative stress. However, its poor absorption in the NIR region of the spectrum makes C60 application for PDT strongly limited.…”

Nanobiotechnology is one of the leading research areas in biomedical science, developing rapidly worldwide. Among various types of nanoparticles, carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) have attracted a great deal of attention from the scientific community, especially with respect to their prospective application in the field of disease diagnosis and therapy. The unique features of these nanomaterials, including favorable size, high surface area, and electrical, structural, optical, and chemical properties, have provided an excellent opportunity for their utilization in theranostic systems. Carbon nanotubes, carbon quantum dots, graphene, and fullerene are the most employed CNMs in biomedical fields. They have been considered safe and efficient for non‐invasive diagnostic techniques such as fluorescence imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, and biosensors. Various functionalized CNMs exhibit a great capacity to improve cell targeting of anticancer drugs. Due to their thermal properties, they have been extensively used in cancer photothermal and photodynamic therapy assisted by laser irradiation and CNMs. CNMs also can cross the blood‐brain barrier and have the potential to treat various brain disorders, for instance, neurodegenerative diseases, by removing amyloid fibrils. This review has summarized and emphasized on biomedical application of CNMs and their recent advances in diagnosis and therapy.

“…Considering their interesting properties as an acceptor system, [2][3][4] C 60 and its derivatives are used as materials in organic solar cells [5][6][7] or to simulate photosynthetic devices. 8,9 Some derivatives are used as liquid crystals 10 and in medicine as anticancer, [11][12][13] antimicrobial, [14][15][16][17] antiviral agents against HIV 18 and recently anti-SARS-CoV 2, 19,20 as well as potential therapeutic agents for neurodegenerative disorders. 21 In Alzheimer's disease, C 60 derivatives have shown capacity to interfere with the amyloid β-peptide fibril formation.…”

“…[8][9][10][11][12] PSs are generally designed from heteroatom-containing macrocycles, photocages, hybrid materials, organic-fluorophores or metal-organic frameworks. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] Cyclotriphosphazenes, an important class of inorganic ring systems, are formed by the sequential bonding of phosphorus and nitrogen atoms. 24,25 The planar molecular geometry of this ring, biocompatibility, resistance to light and harsh conditions, and the ability to combine multiple groups with the same or different properties in the same molecule make this core an indispensable carrier framework for novel hybrid biomaterial designs.…”
