Abstract
Carbonaceous nanomaterials (CNMs) have drawn tremendous biomedical research interest because of their unique structural features. Recently, CNMs, namely carbon dots, fullerenes, graphene, etc, have been successful in establishing them as considerable nanotherapeutics for phototherapy applications due to their electrical, thermal, and surface properties. This review aims to crosstalk the current understanding of CNMs as multimodal compounds in photothermal and photodynamic therapies as an integrated approach to treating cancer. It also expounds on phototherapy's biomechanics and illustrates its relation to cancer biomodulation. Critical considerations related to the structural properties, fabrication approaches, surface functionalization strategies, and biosafety profiles of CNMs have been explained. This article provides an overview of the most recent developments in the study of CNMs used in phototherapy, emphasizing their usage as nanocarriers. To conquer the current challenges of CNMs, we can raise the standard of cancer therapy for patients. The review will be of interest to the researchers working in the area of photothermal and photodynamic therapies and aiming to explore CNMs and their conjugates in cancer therapy.

Zhao T, Ren B, Zhao Y, Chen H, Wang J, Li Y, Liang H, Li L, Liang H. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes impact on the enantioselective bioaccumulation and toxicity of the chiral insecticide bifenthrin to zebrafish (Danio rerio). CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 294:133690. [PMID: 35063547 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.133690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Revised: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The effects of different multi-walled carbon nanotubes on the enantioselective bioaccumulation and toxicity of the chiral pesticide bifenthrin to zebrafish were investigated in this work. The results showed that MWCNTs and MWCNTs-COOH did not affect the preferential bioaccumulation of 1R-cis-BF in zebrafish following exposure to cis-BF enantiomers for 28 days, but which increased cis-BF accumulation amount by 1.03-1.48 times. Further research demonstrated that the genes related to immunity, endocrine activity and neurotoxicity showed enantioselective expression in different zebrafish tissues, and sex-specific differences were observed. The levels of c-fos, th, syn2a, 17β-hsd and cc-chem were expressed as 1.09-2.84 times higher in females and males treated with 1R-cis-BF than in the 1S-cis-BF-treated groups. However, in the presence of MWCNTs or MWCNTs-COOH, c-fos, th, syn2a, 17β-hsd and cc-chem levels were expressed as 1.53-14.92 times higher in females and males treated with 1S-cis-BF than in 1R-cis-BF-treated groups, which indicated that enantioselective expression was altered. The effects of different types of MWCNTs on the enantioselective bioaccumulation and toxicity of BF in zebrafish have little difference. In summary, the presence of MWCNTs or MWCNTs-COOH increased the impact of BF on zebrafish. Therefore, the risks posed by coexisting nanomaterials and chiral pesticides in aquatic environments should be considered.
