Vyas A, Petrášek Z, Nidetzky B. Limits of Non-invasive Enzymatic Activation by Local Temperature Control. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2312220.

Abstract
Enzymatic activity depends on and can therefore be regulated by temperature. Selective modulation of the activity of different enzymes in one reaction pot would require temperature control local to each type of enzyme. It has been suggested previously that immobilization of enzyme on magnetic nanoparticles and exposing them to alternating magnetic field can enhance the reaction rate. This enhancement has been explained as being mediated by temperature increase caused by dissipation of the absorbed field energy in the form of heat. However, the possibility of spatially limiting this temperature increase on the microscale has been questioned. Here, it is investigated whether an activity enhancement of the enzyme sucrose phosphorylase immobilized on magnetic beads can be achieved, how this effect is related to the increase in temperature, and whether temperature differences within one reaction pot could be generated in this way. It is found that alternating magnetic field stimulation leads to increased enzymatic activity fully attributable to the increase of bulk temperature. Both theoretical analysis and experimental data indicate that no local heating near the particle surface takes place. It is further concluded that relevant increase of surface temperature can be obtained only with macroscopic, millimeter-sized, magnetic particles.

Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia is a crucial medical engineering technique for treating diseases, which usually uses alternating magnetic fields (AMF) to interplay with magnetic substances to generate heat. Recently, it has been found that in some cases, there is no detectable temperature increment after applying an AMF, which caused corresponding effects surprisingly. The mechanisms involved in this phenomenon are not yet fully understood. In this study, we aimed to explore the role of Ca2+ overload in the magnetic hyperthermia effect without a perceptible temperature rise. A cellular system expressing the fusion proteins TRPV1 and ferritin was prepared. The application of an AMF (518 kHz, 16 kA/m) could induce the fusion protein to release a large amount of iron ions, which then participates in the production of massive reactive oxygen radicals (ROS). Both ROS and its induced lipid oxidation enticed the opening of ion channels, causing intracellular Ca2+ overload, which further led to decreased cellular viability. Taken together, Ca2+ overload triggered by elevated ROS and the induced oxidation of lipids contributes to the magnetic hyperthermia effect without a perceptible temperature rise. These findings would be beneficial for expanding the application of temperature-free magnetic hyperthermia, such as in cellular and neural regulation, design of new cancer treatment methods.

Abstract
Candida albicans readily develops resistance to fluconazole. Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (denoted as MION) and antimicrobial photodynamic therapy are attracting attention as therapeutic agents. This study aims to investigate the inhibitory efficacy of MION alone and combined with visible light against C. albicans and expression analysis of hyphal wall protein 1 (HWP1) and agglutinin-like sequence 1 (ALS1) genes in C. albicans. Antifungal susceptibility testing, photodynamic activity assay, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production assay and gene expression analysis were determined in C. albicans treated with MION alone and combined with visible light. MION at 1 × minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) level (500 μg/mL) exhibited antifungal activity against C. albicans isolates. Further, 1 × MIC levels of MION alone and combined with visible light displayed remarkable fungicidal effects at 24 and 48 h after treatment. The MION combined with visible light caused the highest levels of ROS production by all C. albicans isolates. The relative RT-PCR data showed significant downregulation of HWP1 and ALS1 genes which are the key virulence genes in C. albicans. Differences in gene expression of HWP1 and ALS1 were more significant in MION combined with visible light treatments than MION alone. Our study sheds a novel light on facile development of effective treatment of C. albicans especially fluconazole-resistant C. albicans infections. The hyphae-specific genes HWP1 and ALS1 could be probable molecular targets for MION alone and combined with visible light in C. albicans.

Abstract
The incidence of gastrointestinal cancers has increased in recent years. Current treatments present numerous challenges, including drug resistance, non-specificity, and severe side effects, needing the exploration of new therapeutic strategies. One promising avenue is the use of magnetic nanoparticles, which have gained considerable interest due to their ability to generate heat in tumor regions upon the application of an external alternating magnetic field, a process known as hyperthermia. This review conducted a systematic search of in vitro and in vivo studies published in the last decade that employ hyperthermia therapy mediated by magnetic nanoparticles for treating gastrointestinal cancers. After applying various inclusion and exclusion criteria (studies in the last 10 years where hyperthermia using alternative magnetic field is applied), a total of 40 articles were analyzed. The results revealed that iron oxide is the preferred material for magnetism generation in the nanoparticles, and colorectal cancer is the most studied gastrointestinal cancer. Interestingly, novel therapies employing nanoparticles loaded with chemotherapeutic drugs in combination with magnetic hyperthermia demonstrated an excellent antitumor effect. In conclusion, hyperthermia treatments mediated by magnetic nanoparticles appear to be an effective approach for the treatment of gastrointestinal cancers, offering advantages over traditional therapies.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNs) are typically used as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging or as drug carriers with a remotely controlled delivery to the tumor. However, they can also potentiate the action of anticancer drugs under the influence of applied constant magnetic (CMFs) and electromagnetic fields (EMFs). This review demonstrates the role of magneto-mechanochemical effects produced by MNs alone and loaded with anticancer agents (MNCs) in response to CMFs and EMFs for modulation of tumor redox state. The combined treatment is suggested to act by two mechanisms: spin-dependent electron transport propagates free radical chain reactions, while magnetomechanical interactions cause conformational changes in drug molecules loaded onto MNs and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). By adjusting the parameters of CMFs and EMFs during the magneto-mechanochemical synthesis and subsequent treatment, it is possible to modulate ROS production and switch redox signaling involved in ERK1/2 and NF-κB pathways from initiation of tumor growth to inhibition. Observations of tumor volume in different animal models and treatment combinations reported a 6%-70% reduction as compared with conventional drugs. Despite these results, there is a general lack of research in magnetic nanotheranostics that link redox changes across multiple levels of organization in the tumor-bearing host. Further multidisciplinary studies with more focus on the relationship between the electron transport processes in biomolecules and their effects on the tumor-host interaction should accelerate the clinical translation of magnetic nanotheranostics.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) delivery systems are promising for targeted drug delivery, imaging, and chemo-hyperthermia of cancer; however, their uses remain limited primarily due to their toxicity associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, targeted delivery, and biodegradation. Attempts employing polymer coatings to minimize the toxicity, along with other challenges, have had limited success. We designed a novel yet generic 'one-for-all' polypropylene sulphide (PPS) coated magnetic nano-delivery system (80 ± 15 nm) as a multi-faceted approach for significant biocompatibility improvement, loading of multiple drugs, ROS-responsive delivery, and combined chemo-hyperthermia therapy for biomedical applications. Three distinct MNP systems (15 ± 1 nm) were fabricated, coated with PPS polymer, and investigated to validate our hypothesis and design. Simultaneous degradation of MNPs and PPS coatings with ROS-scavenging characteristics boosted the biocompatibility of MNPs 2-3 times towards non-cancerous fibroblasts (NIH3T3) and human epithelial cells (HEK293). In an alternating magnetic field, PPS-MNPs (MnFe) had the strongest heating characteristics (SAR value of 240 W g-1). PPS-MNP drug-loaded NPs were efficiently internalised into cells and released 80% of the drugs under tumor microenvironment-mimicking (pH 5-7, ROS) conditions, and demonstrated effective chemo-hyperthermia (45 °C) application for breast cancer cells with 95% cell death in combined treatment vs. 55% and 30% cell death in only hyperthermia and chemotherapy respectively.

Abstract
This study was performed to synthesize a radiopharmaceutical designed for multimodal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment involving radionuclide therapy and magnetic hyperthermia. To achieve this goal, the superparamagnetic iron oxide (magnetite) nanoparticles (SPIONs) were covered with a layer of radioactive gold (198Au) creating core–shell nanoparticles (SPION@Au). The synthesized SPION@Au nanoparticles exhibited superparamagnetic properties with a saturation magnetization of 50 emu/g, which is lower than reported for uncoated SPIONs (83 emu/g). Nevertheless, the SPION@Au core–shell nanoparticles showed a sufficiently high saturation magnetization value which allows them to reach a temperature of 43 °C at a magnetic field frequency of 386 kHz. The cytotoxic effect of nonradioactive and radioactive SPION@Au–polyethylene glycol (PEG) bioconjugates was carried out by treating HepG2 cells with various concentrations (1.25–100.00 µg/mL) of the compound and radioactivity in range of 1.25–20 MBq/mL. The moderate cytotoxic effect of nonradioactive SPION@Au-PEG bioconjugates on HepG2 was observed. The cytotoxic effect associated with the β− radiation emitted by 198Au was much greater and already reaches a cell survival fraction below 8% for 2.5 MBq/mL of radioactivity after 72 h. Thus, the killing of HepG2 cells in HCC therapy should be possible due to the combination of the heat-generating properties of the SPION-198Au–PEG conjugates and the radiotoxicity of the radiation emitted by 198Au.

Abstract
Magnetic materials and magnetic stimulation have gained increasing attention in tissue engineering (TE), particularly for bone and nervous tissue reconstruction. Magnetism is utilized to modulate the cell response to environmental factors and lineage specifications, which involve complex mechanisms of action. Magnetic fields and nanoparticles (MNPs) may trigger focal adhesion changes, which are further translated into the reorganization of the cytoskeleton architecture and have an impact on nuclear morphology and positioning through the activation of mechanotransduction pathways. Mechanical stress induced by magnetic stimuli translates into an elongation of cytoskeleton fibers, the activation of linker in the nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) complex, and nuclear envelope deformation, and finally leads to the mechanical regulation of chromatin conformational changes. As such, the internalization of MNPs with further magnetic stimulation promotes the evolution of stem cells and neurogenic differentiation, triggering significant changes in global gene expression that are mediated by histone deacetylases (e.g., HDAC 5/11), and the upregulation of noncoding RNAs (e.g., miR-106b~25). Additionally, exposure to a magnetic environment had a positive influence on neurodifferentiation through the modulation of calcium channels' activity and cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation. This review presents an updated and integrated perspective on the molecular mechanisms that govern the cellular response to magnetic cues, with a special focus on neurogenic differentiation and the possible utility of nervous TE, as well as the limitations of using magnetism for these applications.

Abstract
Magnetic fields are increasingly being used for the remote, noncontact manipulation of cells and biomaterials for a wide range of regenerative medical (RM) applications. They have been deployed for their direct effects on biological systems or in conjunction with magnetic materials or magnetically tagged cells for a targeted therapeutic effect. In this work, we highlight the recent trends on the broad use of magnetic fields for the homing of therapeutic cells and particles at targeted tissue sites, biomimetic tissue fabrication, and control of cell fate and proliferation. We also survey the design and control principles of magnetic manipulation systems, including their capabilities and limitations, which can guide future research into developing more effective magnetic field-based regenerative strategies.

Abstract
Nowadays, about 30% of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams need contrast agents (CAs) to improve the sensitivity and quality of the images for accurate diagnosis. Here, a multifunctional nano-agent with ring-like vortex-domain iron oxide as core and gadolinium oxide as shell (vortex nanoring Fe3O4 @Gd2O3, abbreviated as VNFG) was firstly designed and prepared for highly enhanced T1-T2 dual-modality magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided magnetic thermal cancer therapy. After thorough characterization, the core-shell structure of VNFG was confirmed. Moreover, the excellent heat generation property (SAR=984.26 W/g) of the proposed VNFG under alternating magnetic fields was firmly demonstrated. Furthermore, both in vitro and in vivo studies have revealed a good preliminary indication of VNFG's biological compatibility, dual-modality enhancing feature and antitumor efficacy. This work demonstrates that the proposed VNFG can be a high-performance tumor diagnosis and theranostic treatment agent and may have great potential for clinical application in the future.

A Ferrofluid with Surface Modified Nanoparticles for Magnetic Hyperthermia and High ROS Production. Molecules 2022; 27:544. [PMID: 35056860 PMCID: PMC8781673 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27020544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Revised: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
A ferrofluid with 1,2-Benzenediol-coated iron oxide nanoparticles was synthesized and physicochemically analyzed. This colloidal system was prepared following the typical co-precipitation method, and superparamagnetic nanoparticles of 13.5 nm average diameter, 34 emu/g of magnetic saturation, and 285 K of blocking temperature were obtained. Additionally, the zeta potential showed a suitable colloidal stability for cancer therapy assays and the magneto-calorimetric trails determined a high power absorption density. In addition, the oxidative capability of the ferrofluid was corroborated by performing the Fenton reaction with methylene blue (MB) dissolved in water, where the ferrofluid was suitable for producing reactive oxygen species (ROS), and surprisingly a strong degradation of MB was also observed when it was combined with H2O2. The intracellular ROS production was qualitatively corroborated using the HT-29 human cell line, by detecting the fluorescent rise induced in 2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate. In other experiments, cell metabolic activity was measured, and no toxicity was observed, even with concentrations of up to 4 mg/mL of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). When the cells were treated with magnetic hyperthermia, 80% of cells were dead at 43 °C using 3 mg/mL of MNPs and applying a magnetic field of 530 kHz with 20 kA/m amplitude.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated antitumor modalities that induced oxidative damage of cancer cells have recently acquired increasing attention on account of their noninvasiveness, low systemic toxicity, and high specificity. However, their clinical efficacy was often constrained by complex and various tumor microenvironment (TME), especially hypoxia characteristic and antioxidation effect of glutathione (GSH). Herein, we constructed a multinanozyme system based on hyaluronic acid (HA)-stabilized CuMnOx nanoparticles (CMOH) loaded with indocyanine green (ICG) with high-efficient ROS generation, O2 self-evolving function, GSH depletion ability and hyperthermia effect for achieving hypoxic tumor therapy. The CMOH nanozymes exhibited peroxidase-like and oxidase-like activities, which could efficiently catalyze H2O2 or O2 to generate hydroxyl radicals (•OH) or superoxide radicals (•O2-) in acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), elevating oxidative stress of tumor. Indocyanine green (ICG) was further loaded into HA-CuMnOx to form HA-CuMnOx@ICG nanocomposites (CMOI NCs), which can effectively generate singlet oxygen (1O2) and local hyperthermia under light irradiation. The hyperthermia generated by CMOI NCs further enhances the catalytic activities of nanozymes for ROS generation. Meanwhile, the CMOI with catalase-like activity could catalyze H2O2 into O2 for relieving tumor hypoxia and elevate O2-dependent ROS generation. Notably, CMOI can consume endogenous GSH, thereby impairing tumor antioxidant system and enhancing ROS-based therapy efficacy. After modified with HA, CMOI NCs with tumor targeting ability realized synergistic PTT-enhanced tumor oxidation therapy based on their multimodal properties. Thus, this work contributes to design high-performance therapeutic reagent to overcome the limitation of hypoxia and high antioxidant defense of tumor. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated antitumor modalities were often constrained by complex and various tumor microenvironment (TME), especially hypoxia characteristic and antioxidation effect of glutathione (GSH). In this work, a multinanozyme system based on hyaluronic acid (HA)-stabilized CuMnOx nanoparticles (CMOH) loaded with indocyanine green (ICG) was designed to realize PTT-enhanced multiple catalysis tumor therapy. Although antitumor modalities based on multienzyme catalysis have been developed. Here, we highlighted the responsive catalysis of multienzyme system on tumor microenvironment (TME) and the promoting effect of photothermal effect on ROS production. Both in vitro and in vivo manifested that the enhanced anticancer efficacy of CMOI NCs due to their thermally amplified catalytic activity and TME regulation ability.

Assessing the Biocompatibility of Multi-Anchored Glycoconjugate Functionalized Iron Oxide Nanoparticles in a Normal Human Colon Cell Line CCD-18Co. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11102465.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that iron oxide nanoparticles with dopamine-anchored heterobifunctional polyethylene oxide (PEO) polymer, namely PEO-IONPs, and bio-functionalized with sialic-acid specific glycoconjugate moiety (Neu5Ac(α2-3)Gal(β1-4)-Glcβ-sp), namely GM3-IONPs, can be effectively used as antibacterial agents against target Escherichia coli. In this study, we evaluated the biocompatibility of PEO-IONPs and GM3-IONPs in a normal human colon cell line CCD-18Co via measuring cell proliferation, membrane integrity, and intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP), glutathione GSH, dihydrorhodamine (DHR) 123, and caspase 3/7 levels. PEO-IONPs caused a significant decrease in cell viability at concentrations above 100 μg/mL whereas GM3-IONPs did not cause a significant decrease in cell viability even at the highest dose of 500 μg/mL. The ATP synthase activity of CCD-18Co was significantly diminished in the presence of PEO-IONPs but not GM3-IONPs. PEO-IONPs also compromised the membrane integrity of CCD-18Co. In contrast, cells exposed to GM3-IONPs showed significantly different cell morphology, but with no apparent membrane damage. The interaction of PEO-IONPs or GM3-IONPs with CCD-18Co resulted in a substantial decrease in the intracellular GSH levels in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Conversely, levels of DHR-123 increased with IONP concentrations. Levels of caspase 3/7 proteins were found to be significantly elevated in cells exposed to PEO-IONPs. Based on the results, we assume GM3-IONPs to be biocompatible with CCD-18Co and could be further evaluated for selective killing of pathogens in vivo.

Abstract
Functionalized nanoparticles reveal new frontiers in therapeutics and diagnostics, simultaneously referred to as theranostics. Functionalization of an inorganic nanoparticle (NP) with an organic ligand determines the interaction of the functionalized NPs with various cellular components, leading to the desired therapeutic effect, while diminishing adverse side effects. Apart from the therapeutic effect of the nanoparticles, other physical properties of the organic-inorganic complex (nanohybrid) including fluorescence, X-ray or MRI contrast offer diagnosis of the anomalous target cell. In this study we functionalized Mn3 O4 NPs with organic citrate (C-Mn3 O4 ) and folic acid (FA-Mn3 O4 ) ligands and investigated their antimicrobial activities using Staphylococcus hominis as a model bacteria, which can be remediated through their membrane rupture. While high-resolution transmission microscopy (HR-TEM), XRD, DLS, absorbance and fluorescence spectroscopy were used for structural characterisation of the functionalised NPs, zeta potential measurements and temperature-dependent reactive oxygen speices (ROS) generation reveal their drug action. We used high-end density functional theory (DFT) calculations to rationalise the specificity of the drug action of the NPs. Picosecond-resolved FRET studies confirm the enhanced affinity of FA-Mn3 O4 to the bacteria relative to C-Mn3 O4 , leading to enhanced antimicrobial activity. We have shown that the functionalised nanoparticles offer significant X-ray contrast in in-vitro studies, indicating the FA-Mn3 O4 NPs to be a potential theranostic agent against bacterial infection.

Abstract
Simple Summary Magnetic hyperthermia therapy is an alternative treatment for cancer that complements traditional therapies and that has shown great promise in recent years. In this review, we assess the current applications of this therapy in order to understand why its translation from the laboratory to the clinic has been less smooth than was anticipated, identifying the possible bottlenecks and proposing solutions to the problems encountered. Abstract Hyperthermia has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional cancer therapies and in fact, traditional hyperthermia is now commonly used in combination with chemotherapy or surgery during cancer treatment. Nevertheless, non-specific application of hyperthermia generates various undesirable side-effects, such that nano-magnetic hyperthermia has arisen a possible solution to this problem. This technique to induce hyperthermia is based on the intrinsic capacity of magnetic nanoparticles to accumulate in a given target area and to respond to alternating magnetic fields (AMFs) by releasing heat, based on different principles of physics. Unfortunately, the clinical implementation of nano-magnetic hyperthermia has not been fluid and few clinical trials have been carried out. In this review, we want to demonstrate the need for more systematic and basic research in this area, as many of the sub-cellular and molecular mechanisms associated with this approach remain unclear. As such, we shall consider here the biological effects that occur and why this theoretically well-designed nano-system fails in physiological conditions. Moreover, we will offer some guidelines that may help establish successful strategies through the rational design of magnetic nanoparticles for magnetic hyperthermia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antimicrobial sonodynamic therapy (aSDT) is an adjunctive modality, which uses ultrasound irradiation to kill microbial cells by the activation of a sonosensitizer. The aim of this study was to evaluated the synergistic biocidal effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) as the metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs)-assisted ultrasound irradiation against Streptococcus mutans biofilms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Following preparation and characterization of MONPs, cellular uptake and generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were assessed. After determination of the sub-significant reduction (SSR) doses of ZnO NPs, TiO2 NPs, ZnO/TiO2 NPs, and ultrasound intensity against S. mutans, anti-biofilm effects of aSDT were assessed using colorimetric assay, plate counting, and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) analysis. Also, the metabolic activity of S. mutans and the expression levels of glucosyltransferase B (gtfB) as a main virulence factor of S. mutans were evaluated by XTT assay and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction following ZnO/TiO2 NPsSSR- mediated aSDT. RESULTS The finding of this study showed that an incubation time of 5 min was sufficient to achieve maximal uptake of MONPs. The ROS production following aSDT using ZnO NPs, TiO2 NPs, and ZnO/TiO2 NPs were ~ 4.1-, 5.6-, and 11.7-fold increase, respectively. The dose-dependent reduction in cell viability of S. mutans was revealed by increasing the concentrations of ZnO NPs, TiO2 NPs, ZnO/TiO2, as well as ultrasound intensities. According to the data, 1.5 µg/mL, 3.1 µg/mL, 25 µg/mL, and 0.75 W/cm2 were considered as the SSR doses of ZnO/TiO2 NPs, ZnO NPs, TiO2 NPs, and ultrasound intensity, respectively (P>0.05). ZnO/TiO2 NPsSSR-mediated aSDT showed a significantly higher biofilm inhibitory activity than the other treatment groups (P<0.05). Based on the FE-SEM analysis, aSDT based on the ZnO/TiO2 NPsSSR had a strong anti-biofilm effect against preformed biofilms of S. mutans on the enamel slabs. Also, the metabolic activity of S. mutans and the expression levels of gtfB were significantly decreased to 85.5% and 12.3-fold, respectively following ZnO/TiO2 NPsSSR-mediated aSDT (P<0.05). No considerable difference was observed in anti-biofilm activity between ZnO/TiO2 NPsSSR- mediated aSDT and 0.2% CHX (P>0.05). CONCLUSION The results revealed anti-metabolic and anti-biofilm potential activities of ZnO/TiO2 NPs-mediated aSDT against S. mutans with the highest cellular uptake and ROS generation.

Abstract
Fenton-based therapy is emerging as an effective and selective strategy against cancer. However, a low concentration of transition metal ions, insufficient endogenous H2O2, and a high level of antioxidant activity within the cancer cells have hindered the therapeutic efficacy of this strategy. To address these issues, in this study, the Fenton reagent (magnetic hydroxyapatite, mHAP) was accompanied with chemotherapy drugs (cisplatin (CDDP) and methotrexate (MTX)) and static magnetic field (SMF), in such a way to be a pH-, redox-, and magnetic-responsive nanoplatform. In vitro and in vivo experiments revealed higher toxicity of the final construct, MTX.CDDP@mHAP, toward colon cancer cells, as compared with that of free drugs. The most effective antitumor activity was observed as MTX.CDDP@mHAP-treated tumor cells were exposed to SMF (0.9 T) and no noticeable damage was observed in the normal cells and tissues. Active targeting by MTX and magnetic targeting by mHAP under magnetic field increased the tumor selectivity and enhanced the tumor site accumulation and cellular uptake of MTX.CDDP@mHAPs. The released iron ions within the cancer cells trigger the Fenton reaction while the release of chemotherapy drugs, reduction of intracellular glutathione, and application of SMF aggravated the Fenton reaction, subsequently leading to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induction of apoptosis. Therefore, Fenton magnetic-based therapy-mediated by MTX.CDDP@mHAP could be considered as a promising strategy against colon cancer with high therapeutic efficiency and biosafety.

Abstract
The use of different types of biomaterials as surfactant moities has a defined role in magnetic hyperthermia-mediated cancer therapy (MHCT). In this work, we present carboxymethyl-stevioside (CMS)-modified magnetic dots (MDs) as efficient magnetic hyperthermia agents for glioma therapy. The synthesized MDs with CMS biosurfactant coating exhibited significant water stability that resulted in a remarkable specific absorption rate of 209.25 W/g on application of alternating magnetic field of strength 359 kHz and 188 Oe. The MDs further demonstrated significant anti-migratory and anti-invasive effect on glioma C6 cells by inhibiting the gene expression of matrix metalloproteinases-2 and -9. The effect of immediate and long term hyperthermia treatment was then evaluated after repetitive exposure to hyperthermia, in terms of glioma cell viability, the effect of treatment on cell morphology, the cell cycle distribution and oxidative stress generation. The results obtained suggest the promising potential of CMS-modified nano-heaters for excellent magnetic hyperthermia-mediated glioma therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cancer constitutes group of diseases responsible for the second largest cause of global death, and it is currently considered one of the main public health concerns nowadays. Early diagnosis associated with the best choice of therapeutic strategy, is essential to achieve success in cancer treatment. In women, breast cancer is the second most common type, whereas ovarian cancer has the highest lethality when compared to other neoplasms of the female genital system. The present work, therefore, proposes the association of methylene blue with citrate-coated maghemite nanoparticles (MAGCIT–MB) as a nanocomplex for the treatment of breast and ovarian cancer.
Results
In vitro studies showed that T-47D and A2780 cancer cell lines underwent a significant reduction in cell viability after treatment with MAGCIT–MB, an event not observed in non-tumor (HNTMC and HUVEC) cells and MDA-MB-231, a triple-negative breast cancer cell line. Flow cytometry experiments suggest that the main mechanism of endocytosis involved in the interiorization of MAGCIT–MB is the clathrin pathway, whereas both late apoptosis and necrosis are the main types of cell death caused by the nanocomplex. Scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy reveal significant changes in the cell morphology. Quantification of reactive oxygen species confirmed the MAGCIT–MB cytotoxic mechanism and its importance for the treatment of tumor cells. The lower cytotoxicity of individual solution of maghemite nanoparticles with citrate (MAGCIT) and free methylene blue (MB) shows that their association in the nanocomplex is responsible for its enhanced therapeutic potential in the treatment of breast and ovarian cancer in vitro.
Conclusions
Treatment with MAGCIT–MB induces the death of cancer cells but not normal cells. These results highlight the importance of the maghemite core for drug delivery and for increasing methylene blue activity, aiming at the treatment of breast and ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Colon cancer is an adenocarcinoma, which subsequently develops into malignant tumors, if not treated properly. The current colon cancer therapy mainly revolves around chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery, but the search continues for more effective interventions. With the advancement of nanoparticles (NPs), it is now possible to diagnose and treat colon cancers with different types, shapes, and sizes of NPs. Nanoformulations such as quantum dots, iron oxide, polymeric NPs, dendrimers, polypeptides, gold NPs, silver NPs, platinum NPs, and cerium oxide have been either extensively used alone or in combination with other nanomaterials or drugs in colon cancer diagnosis, and treatments. These nanoformulations possess high biocompatibility and bioavailability, which makes them the most suitable candidates for cancer treatment. The size and shape of NPs are critical to achieving an effective drug delivery in cancer treatment and diagnosis. Most NPs currently are under different testing phases (in vitro, preclinical, and clinical), whereas some of them have been approved for therapeutic applications. We have comprehensively reviewed the recent advances in the applications of NPs-based formulations in colon cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
In this work, size- and shape-controlled two-dimensional (2D) superparamagnetic maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) quantum flakes (MQFs) with high surface area and mesoporosity were prepared by facile hydrothermal synthesis for biological applications. These quantum flakes exhibited superparamagnetic behaviours over a wide temperature range of 75-950 K with high saturation magnetization of Ms - 23 emu g-1 and a lower coercivity of Hc - 6.1 Oe. MQFs also demonstrated a good colloidal stability and a positively charged flake surface. Selective toxicity dependent upon selective ROS scavenging/generation and cellular MQF uptake towards non-malignant human keratinocyte (HaCaT) and malignant melanoma (A357) and human breast cancer (MDA-MB 231) cell lines were witnessed. An increased ROS concentration resulted due to the peroxidase-like activity of MQFs in malignant cells. In contrast, ROS scavenging was observed in non-malignant cells due to dominant catalase-like activity. In vitro fluorescence properties added the diagnostic ability to the ambit of MQFs. Furthermore, the therapeutic efficiency could be significantly enhanced by the hyperthermic (25-47 °C) ability of MQF in cancerous cells. Our findings reveal the novel theranostic MQF structure with immense cancer therapeutic potential via augmentation of ROS generation by hyperthermia in a selective microenvironment.

Abstract
The design, synthesis and characterization of new nanomaterials represents one of the most dynamic and transversal aspects of nanotechnology applications in the biomedical field. New synthetic and engineering improvements allow the design of a wide range of biocompatible nanostructured materials (NSMs) and nanoparticles (NPs) which, with or without additional chemical and/or biomolecular surface modifications, are more frequently employed in applications for successful diagnostic, drug delivery and therapeutic procedures. Metal-based nanoparticles (MNPs) including metal NPs, metal oxide NPs, quantum dots (QDs) and magnetic NPs, thanks to their physical and chemical properties have gained much traction for their functional use in biomedicine. In this review it is highlighted how the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which in many respects could be considered a negative aspect of the interaction of MNPs with biological matter, may be a surprising nanotechnology weapon. From the exchange of knowledge between branches such as materials science, nanotechnology, engineering, biochemistry and medicine, researchers and clinicians are setting and standardizing treatments by tuning ROS production to induce cancer or microbial cell death.

Abstract
Objective: A critical challenge in the treatment of biofilm infection is the capacity of biofilm-grown bacteria to develop resistance to traditional antimicrobial therapies. The objective of this study was to validate the therapeutic potential of magnetic nanoparticle/alternating magnetic field (MNP/AMF) hyperthermia in combination with conventional antibiotics against biofilm infection. Materials and methods: The impact of MNP/AMF hyperthermia on the viability of S. aureus biofilm in the absence and presence of antibiotics as well as on the bactericidal activity of macrophages were evaluated at varying conditions of MNPs concentration and AMF intensity using in vitro cell culture models. Results: The application of MNP/AMF alone at a CEM43 thermal dose below the threshold for skin tissue exhibited a modest efficacy in the eradication of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) biofilm (<1-log reduction). The treatment of antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, vancomycin) alone at a bactericidal concentration for planktonic S. aureus had no significant effect on the eradication of biofilm phase of S. aureus. However, when the biofilm was pre-exposed to mild MNP/AMF hyperthermia, the treatment of antibiotics could exhibit bactericidal effects against S. aureus biofilm, which was associated with increased uptake of antibiotics to the bacterial cells. Importantly, the application of MNP/AMF could promote the bactericidal activity of macrophages against intracellular bacteria via MNP-dependent generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Conclusion: Our results validate that the application of mild MNP/AMF hyperthermia within a safe thermal dose threshold is synergistic with conventional antibiotics as well as aids host innate immune response of macrophages for the clearance of intracellular bacteria.

Abstract
Recently, we introduced magnetophoretic circuits, composed of overlaid magnetic and metallic layers, as a novel single-cell analysis (SCA) tool. We showed the ability of these circuits in organizing large single-particle and particle-pair arrays. Assembling the cells in microarrays is performed with the ultimate goal of running temporal phenotypic analyses. However, for long-term studies, a suitable microenvironment for the cells to normally grow and differentiate is needed. Towards this goal, in this study, we run required biocompatibility tests, based on which we make the magnetophoretic-based microchip a suitable home for the cells to grow. The results confirm the ability of these chips in cell handling and show no unwanted cell behavior alteration due to the applied shear stress on them, the magnetic labeling, or the microenvironment. After this achievement, this tool would be ready for running important single-cell studies in oncology, virology, and medicine.

Abstract
Magnetite (Fe3O4)-gold (Au) core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) have unique magnetic and optical properties. When combined with biological moieties, these NPs can offer new strategies for biomedical applications, such as drug delivery and cancer targeting. Here, we present an effective method for the controllable cellular uptake of magnetic core-shell NP systems combined with biological moieties. Vimentin, which is the structural protein, has been biochemically confirmed to affect phagocytosis potently. In addition, vimentin affects exogenic materials internalization into cells even though under multiple inhibitions of biological moieties. In this study, we demonstrate the cellular internalization performance of Fe3O4-Au core-shell NPs with surface modification using a combination of biological moieties. The photofluorescence of vimentin-tagged NPs remained unaffected under multiple inhibition tests, indicating that the NPs were minimally influenced by nystatin, dynasore, cytochalasin D, and even the Muc1 antibody (Ab). Consequently, this result indicates that the Muc1 Ab can target specific molecules and can control specific endocytosis. Besides, we show the possibility of controlling specific endocytosis in colorectal cancer cells.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown the potential of magnetic hyperthermia in cancer treatments. However, the underlying mechanisms involved have not been yet fully described. In particular, the cell death related to magnetic hyperthermia observed in cultures incubated with low concentration of magnetic nanoparticles and under a low intensity alternating magnetic field, in which a macroscopic temperature rise is not observed, is still not understood. In the present study, we investigate the production of intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as a mechanism to induce cell death under these conditions. In this study, the production and influence of ROS on the viability of HepG2 human hepatoma cells (used as a model cell line) are analyzed under the application of variable magnetic fields using hyperthermia agents, such as biomimetic magnetic nanoparticles (BMNPs) mediated by magnetosome MamC protein from Magnetococcus marinus MC-1. The results show that intracellular ROS production increases up to ∼90% following upon the exposure of AMF to HepG2 cells containing BMNPs, which could determine the loss of cell viability (up to ∼40% reduction) without a significant rise in temperature. Such ROS production is linked to mitochondrial dysfunction caused by the application of AMF to cells containing BMNPs.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer death. Nanotechnology has focused on reaching more effective treatments. In this concern, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been studied for a wide range of biomedical applications related to CRC, such as diagnostic imaging, drug delivery and thermal therapy. However, limited research is currently found in the open literature that refers to nanosystems combining all these mentioned areas (theranostics). When developing nanosystems intended as theranostics applied to CRC, possible variations between patients must be considered. Therefore, multiple in vitro assays are required as guidance for future preclinical and clinical trials. The objective of this contribution is to evaluate the available and recent literature regarding the interactions of MNP and CRC models, aiming to critically analyze the information given by the commonly used assays and evaluate the data provided by each one with a view to implementing this novel technology in CRC diagnostics and therapy.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the brain toxicity following the respiratory contact with multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in male Wistar rats. Rats were exposed to 5 mg/m3 MWCNT aerosol in different sizes and purities for 5 h/day, 5 days/week for 2 weeks in a whole-body exposure chamber. After 2-week exposure, mitochondrial isolation was performed from different parts of rat brain (hippocampus, frontal cortex, and cerebellum) and parameters of mitochondrial toxicity including mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) collapse, mitochondrial swelling, and cytochrome c release, ATP level, mitochondrial GSH, and lipid peroxidation were evaluated. Our results demonstrated that MWCNTs with different characteristics, in size and purity, significantly (P < 0.05) decreased SDH activity, GSH, and ATP level, and increased mitochondrial ROS production, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial swelling, MMP collapse, and cytochrome c release in the brain mitochondria. In conclusion, we suggested that MWCNTs with different characteristics, in size and purity, induce damage in varying degrees on the mitochondrial respiratory chain and increase mitochondrial ROS formation in different parts of rat brain (hippocampus, frontal cortex, and cerebellum).

Abstract
Saliva plays a crucial role in oral cavity. In addition to its buffering and moisturizing properties, saliva fulfills many biofunctional requirements, including antibacterial activity that is essential to assure proper oral microbiota growth. Due to numerous extra- and intra-systemic factors, there are many disorders of its secretion, leading to oral dryness. Saliva substitutes used in such situations must meet many demands. This study was design to evaluate the effect of core-shell magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) adding (gold-coated and aminosilane-coated nanoparticles NPs) on antimicrobial (microorganism adhesion, biofilm formation), rheological (viscosity, viscoelasticity) and physicochemical (pH, surface tension, conductivity) properties of three commercially available saliva formulations. Upon the addition of NPs (20 µg/mL), antibacterial activity of artificial saliva was found to increase against tested microorganisms by 20% to 50%. NPs, especially gold-coated ones, decrease the adhesion of Gram-positive and fungal cells by 65% and Gram-negative bacteria cells by 45%. Moreover, the addition of NPs strengthened the antimicrobial properties of tested artificial saliva, without influencing their rheological and physicochemical properties, which stay within the range characterizing the natural saliva collected from healthy subjects.

Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT) has been widely used for cancer treatment. However, the intrinsic drawbacks of RT, such as radiotoxicity in normal tissues and tumor radioresistance, promoted the development of radiosensitizers. To date, various kinds of nanoparticles have been found to act as radiosensitizers in cancer radiotherapy. This review focuses on the current state of nanoradiosensitizers, especially the related biological mechanisms, and the key design strategies for generating nanoradiosensitizers. The regulation of oxidative stress, DNA damage, the cell cycle, autophagy and apoptosis by nanoradiosensitizers in vitro and in vivo is highlighted, which may guide the rational design of therapeutics for tumor radiosensitization.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the common types of cancer around the world which has few therapeutic options. Nitrogen heterocyclic derivatives such as thiazoles are used as the basis for the progression of the drugs. The objective of this study was to synthesize the 1-((3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl) methylene)-2-(4-phenylthiazol-2-yl) hydrazine (TP) conjugating with (3-Chloropropyl) trimethoxysilane (CPTMOS)-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) for anti-cancer activities against gastric AGS cancer cell line. The synthesized Fe3O4@CPTMOS/TP NPs were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, EDX, SEM, TEM and Zeta potential analyses. To evaluate the toxicity of the above compound after AGS cell culture in RPMI1640 medium, the cells were treated at different concentrations for 24 h. The viability of the cells was investigated by MTT assay. Moreover, apoptosis induced by Fe3O4@CPTMOS/TP NPs was assessed by Hoechst 33432 staining, oxygen activity specification evaluation, caspase-3 activity assay, cell cycle analysis and annexin V/PI staining followed by flow cytometry analysis. The IC50 value in AGS cells was estimated to be 95.65 µg/ml. The flow cytometry results of Fe3O4@CPTMOS/TP NPs revealed a large number of cells in the apoptotic regions compared to the control cells and the cells treated with TP. In addition, the amount of ROS production and caspase-3 activity increased in the treated cells with Fe3O4@CPTMOS/TP NPs. The percentage of inhibited cancer cells in the G0/G1 phase increased under the treatment in the binding state to the nonionic iron oxide nanoparticles. Overall, this study showed that Fe3O4@CPTMOS/TP NP had effect on induction of apoptosis and inhibiting the growth of AGS cancer cells. Thus, Fe3O4@CPTMOS/TP NP can be considered as a new anti-cancer candid for next phase of studies on mouse models.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) are widely used in a variety of fields, including those related to consumer products, architecture, energy, and biomedicine. Once they enter the human body, NPs contact proteins in the blood and interact with cells in organs, which may induce cytotoxicity. Among the various factors of NP surface chemistry, surface charges, hydrophobicity levels and combinatorial decorations are found to play key roles inregulating typical cytotoxicity-related bioeffects, including protein binding, cellular uptake, oxidative stress, autophagy, inflammation, and apoptosis. In this review, we summarize the recent progress made in directing the levels and molecular pathways of these cytotoxicity-related effects by the purposeful design of NP surface charge, hydrophobicity, and combinatorial decorations.

Abstract
A mesoporous magnetic nanohybrid functionalized with 14 wt % carbon nitride (CN) and loaded with curcumin (Cur) has been developed as a combination platform for photodynamic therapy and magnetic hyperthermia. CN-Cur complexes on the nanoparticle surface facilitate fast charge separation of hole-electron pairs under blue LED light irradiation and subsequent singlet oxygen generation. Cur release from the nanoparticle was significant only when exposed to both lysosomal pH (pH = 5.2) and an alternating current magnetic field (AMF). The mesoporous magnetic carbon nitride (MMCN) caused a 350% increase in the level of intracellular ROS as compared to the light exposed untreated control group. The nanohybrid was non-hemolytic and found to be biocompatible with HUVEC cells at concentrations up to 360 μg/mL. A similar concentration under AMF exposure caused a localized temperature rise of 4.2 °C and resulted in a 60% reduction in C6 cell viability. The cancer cell death further increased up to 80% under sequential exposure to light and AMF. The combinatorial treatment exerted significant cytoskeletal and nuclear damage in the cancer cells as assessed by confocal microscopy. The nanohybrid also exhibited relaxivity of 88 mM-1 s-1, imparting significant T2 weighted contrast to the cancer cells.

Abstract
Development of a complex based on iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) for diagnosis and dual magnetic hyperthermia/radionuclide cancer therapy accomplishing high yields of radiolabeling and great magnetic heat induction is still a challenge. We report here the synthesis of citric acid, poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(ethylene glycol) coated IONPs and their labeling with three radionuclides, namely, technetium (99mTc), yttrium (90Y), and lutetium (177Lu), aiming at potential use in cancer diagnosis and therapy. Polyol-synthesized IONPs are a flowerlike structure with 13.5 nm spherically shaped cores and 24.8 nm diameter. PAA-coated nanoparticles (PAA@IONP) showed the best characteristics such as easy radiolabeling with very high yields (>97.5%) with all three radionuclides, and excellent in vitro stabilities with less than 10% of radionuclides detaching after 24 h. Heating ability of PAA@IONP in an alternating external magnetic field showed intrinsic loss power value of 7.3 nH m2/kg, which is one of higher reported values. Additionally, PAA@IONP itself presented no significant cytotoxicity to the CT-26 cancer cells, reaching IC50 at 60 μg/mL. However, under the external magnetic field, they show hyperthermia-mediated cells killing, which correlated with the magnetic field strength and time of exposure. Since PAA@IONP are easy to prepare, biocompatible, and with excellent magnetic heat induction, these nanoparticles radiolabeled with high-energy beta emitters 90Y and 177Lu have valuable potential as agent for dual magnetic hyperthermia/radionuclide therapy, while radiolabeled with 99mTc could be used in diagnostic imaging.

Abstract
In vivo drug release monitoring provides accurate and reliable information to guide drug dosing. Image-based strategies for in vivo monitoring are advantageous because they are non-invasive and provide visualization of the spatial distribution of drug, but those imaging modalities in use (e.g., fluorescence imaging (FI) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) remain inadequate because of the low tissue penetration depth (for FI) or difficulty with quantification of release rate and signal convolution with noise sources (for MRI). Magnetic particle imaging (MPI), employing superparamagnetic nanoparticles as the contrast agent and sole signal source, enables large tissue penetration and quantifiable signal intensity. These properties make it ideal for application to in vivo drug release monitoring. In this work, we design a superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanocluster@poly(lactide-co-glycolide acid) core-shell nanocomposite loaded with a chemotherapy drug (doxorubicin) which serves as a dual drug delivery system and MPI quantification tracer. The as-prepared nanocomposite can degrade under a mild acidic microenvironment (pH = 6.5), which induces a sustained release of doxorubicin and gradual decomposition of the Fe3O4 nanocluster, causing the MPI signal changes. We showed that nanocomposite-induced MPI signal changes display a linear correlation with the release rate of doxorubicin over time (R2 = 0.99). Utilizing this phenomenon, we successfully established quantitative monitoring of the release process in cell culture. We then performed in vivo drug release monitoring in a cancer therapy setting using a murine breast cancer model by injecting the nanocomposite, monitoring the drug release, and assessing the induced tumor cell kill. This study provides an improved solution for in vivo drug release monitoring compared to other available monitoring strategies. This translational strategy using a biocompatible polymer-coated iron oxide nanocomposite will be promising in future clinical use.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanoparticles that carry chemotherapeutic agents can be innovative anticancer therapeutic options owing to their tumor-targeting ability and high drug-loading capacity. However, the nonspecific release of toxic DNA-intercalating anticancer drugs from the nanoparticles has significant side effects on healthy cells surrounding the tumors. Herein, we report a tumor homing reactive oxygen species nanoparticle (THoR-NP) platform that is highly effective and selective for ablating malignant tumors. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) were selected as an exogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) generator and a superoxide dismutase 1 inhibitor, respectively. DDC-loaded THoR-NP, in combination with SNP treatment, eliminated multiple cancer cell lines effectively by the generation of peroxynitrite in the cells (>95% cell death), as compared to control drug treatments of the same concentration of DDC or SNP alone (0% cell death). Moreover, the magnetic core (ZnFe2O4) of the THoR-NP can specifically ablate tumor cells (breast cancer cells) via magnetic hyperthermia, in conjunction with DDC, even in the absence of any exogenous RS supplements. Finally, by incorporating iRGD peptide moieties in the THoR-NP, integrin-enriched cancer cells (malignant tumors, MDA-MB-231) were effectively and selectively killed, as opposed to nonmetastatic tumors (MCF-7), as confirmed in a mouse xenograft model. Hence, our strategy of using nanoparticles embedded with ROS-scavenger-inhibitor with an exogenous ROS supplement is highly selective and effective cancer therapy.

Abstract
It is the challenging goal in cancer biomedicine to search novel cancer-therapeutic modality with concurrent high therapeutic efficiency on combating cancer and low side effects to normal cells/tissues. The recently developed nanocatalytic cancer therapy based on catalytic Fenton reaction represents one of the promising paradigms for potential clinical translation, which has got fast progress very recently. This progress report discusses the rational design and fabrication of Fenton reaction-based nanocatalysts for triggering the in-situ Fenton chemical reaction within tumor microenvironment to generate highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH), which is highly efficient for killing the cancer cells and suppressing the tumor growth. Several strategies for optimizing the nanocatalytic cancer-therapeutic efficiency of Fenton reaction have been highlighted, including screening high-performance Fenton nanocatalysts, increasing peroxide-hydrogen amounts as the reactants, changing the Fenton-reaction conditions (e.g., temperature, acidity and photo-triggering), and Fenton reaction-based synergistic cancer therapy such as some sequential nanocatalytic reactions with improved therapeutic outcome. The facing challenges and future developments of Fenton reaction-based nanocatalytic cancer therapy are also discussed for further promoting the clinical translation of this emerging cancer-therapeutic modality to benefit the cancer patients.

Abstract
Melanoma is responsible for the majority of deaths related to skin cancer. Worryingly, prognoses show an increasing number of melanoma cases each year worldwide. Radiotherapy, which is a cornerstone of cancer treatment, has proved to be useful but insufficient in melanoma management due to exceptionally high radioresistance of melanoma cells. This problem could be overcome by superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) used as heat mediators in magnetic hyperthermia, which not only enhance radiosensitivity, but also enable precise targeting by exploitation of their magnetic properties.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) are used to a large extent in the targeted delivery of therapeutic agents. In this study, we aimed to investigate the possible toxicity of Fe2 O 3 NPs on human cells, including blood lymphocytes. We isolated blood lymphocytes from healthy humans using Ficoll polysaccharide and subsequently by gradient centrifugation. Then, the toxicity parameters, including cell viability, reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, lipid peroxidation, cellular glutathione (GSH) level, mitochondrial and lysosomal damage, were measured in blood lymphocytes after exposure to Fe 2 O 3 NPs. Our results indicated that Fe 2 O 3 NPs significantly (dependent on concentration) reduced the cell viability, and the IC 50 was determined to be 1 mM. With increasing concentrations, we found that Fe 2 O 3 NPs-induced cell toxicity was associated with a significant increase in intracellular ROS and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and lysosomal membrane leakiness. Consequently, these NPs at different concentrations affect GSH level and cause oxidative stress in human lymphocytes.

Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia has a significant potential to be a new breakthrough for cancer treatment. The simple concept of nanoparticle-induced heating by the application of an alternating magnetic field has attracted much attention, as it allows the local heating of cancer cells, which are considered more susceptible to hyperthermia than healthy cells, while avoiding the side effects of traditional hyperthermia. Despite the potential of this therapeutic approach, the idea that local heating effects due to the application of alternating magnetic fields on magnetic nanoparticle-loaded cancer cells can be used as a treatment is controversial. Several studies indicate that the heating capacity of magnetic nanoparticles is largely reduced in the cellular environment because of increased viscosity, aggregation, and dipolar interactions. However, an increasing number of studies, both in vitro and in vivo, show evidence of successful magnetic hyperthermia treatment on several different types of cancer cells. This apparent contradiction might be due to the use of different experimental conditions. Here, we analyze the effects of several parameters on the cytotoxic efficiency of magnetic nanoparticles as heat inductors under an alternating magnetic field. Our results indicate that the cell-nanoparticle interaction reduces the cytotoxic effects of magnetic hyperthermia, independent of nanoparticle coating and core size, the cell line used, and the subcellular localization of nanoparticles. However, there seems to occur a synergistic effect between the application of an external source of heat and the presence of magnetic nanoparticles, leading to higher toxicities than those induced by heat alone or the accumulation of nanoparticles within cells.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of magnetite (Fe₃O₄) were prepared using a polystyrene-graft-poly(2-vinylpyridine) copolymer (denoted G0PS-g-P2VP or G1) as template. These MNPs were subjected to self-assembly with a poly(acrylic acid)-block-poly(2-hydroxyethyl acrylate) double-hydrophilic block copolymer (DHBC), PAA-b-PHEA, to form water-dispersible magnetic polyion complex (MPIC) micelles. Large Fe₃O₄ crystallites were visualized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and magnetic suspensions of MPIC micelles exhibited improved colloidal stability in aqueous environments over a wide pH and ionic strength range. Biological cells incubated for 48 h with MPIC micelles at the highest concentration (1250 µg of Fe₃O₄ per mL) had a cell viability of 91%, as compared with 51% when incubated with bare (unprotected) MNPs. Cell internalization, visualized by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and TEM, exhibited strong dependence on the MPIC micelle concentration and incubation time, as also evidenced by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). The usefulness of MPIC micelles for cellular radiofrequency magnetic field hyperthermia (MFH) was also confirmed, as the MPIC micelles showed a dual dose-dependent effect (concentration and duration of magnetic field exposure) on the viability of L929 mouse fibroblasts and U87 human glioblastoma epithelial cells.
