[PMID: 32305138 DOI: 10.1016/j.burns.2020.03.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2019] [Revised: 03/05/2020] [Accepted: 03/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Laser has found increasingly wider applications in the medical filed, but laser is likely to cause damage to patients' skin. In this experiment, we were surprised to find that glyceryl monooleate (GMO)-based cubic liquid crystal had excellent healing effect on the skin of guinea pigs damaged by laser. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL), H.E. pathology, Masson trichrome dyeing, interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels and the percutaneous depth of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dyeing were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of GMO-based cubic liquid crystals against laser damage of different degrees among guinea pigs. GMO-based cubic liquid crystals had an obvious effect in the treatment of slight and moderate laser damage. This finding may provide a effective medical treatment protocols for laser skin damage.

Abstract
We report ultrasensitive sub-10 nm NaMnF(3) nanocrystals codoped with Yb(3+), Er(3+)/Tm(3+) ions, and their intense pure red and near-infrared upconversion emissions in the presence of Mn(2+). The nanocrystals showed excellent T(1) contrast in 7 T MRI, implying their potential as single-phase contrast agents for fluorescent deep tissue and MR imaging.

Abstract
Fluorescent optical probes have been intensively used in the area of bio-imaging. In this review article, we describe the recent advancements in the synthesis and application of bimodal magnetic-fluorescent probes for bioimaging. The bimodal probes consist of fluorescent [semiconducting quantum dots (e.g., CdSe/ZnS) or rare-earth doped (e.g., NaYF(4) :Yb,Er)] nanoparticles (NPs) and magnetic (iron oxide or gadolinium based) NPs for optical and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging.
