Abstract
The growing field of nanotechnology has witnessed numerous advancements over the past few years, particularly in the development of engineered nanoparticles. Compared with bulk materials, metal nanoparticles possess more favorable properties, such as increased chemical activity and toxicity, owing to their smaller size and larger surface area. Metal nanoparticles exhibit exceptional stability, specificity, sensitivity, and effectiveness, making them highly useful in the biomedical field. Metal nanoparticles are in high demand in biomedical nanotechnology, including Au, Ag, Pt, Cu, Zn, Co, Gd, Eu, and Er. These particles exhibit excellent physicochemical properties, including amenable functionalization, non-corrosiveness, and varying optical and electronic properties based on their size and shape. Metal nanoparticles can be modified with different targeting agents such as antibodies, liposomes, transferrin, folic acid, and carbohydrates. Thus, metal nanoparticles hold great promise for various biomedical applications such as photoacoustic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography (CT), photothermal, and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Despite their potential, safety considerations, and regulatory hurdles must be addressed for safe clinical applications. This review highlights advancements in metal nanoparticle surface engineering and explores their integration with emerging technologies such as bioimaging, cancer therapeutics and nanomedicine. By offering valuable insights, this comprehensive review offers a deep understanding of the potential of metal nanoparticles in biomedical research.

Abstract
Photobiomodulation (PBM) has widely been used to effectively treat complications associated with cancer treatment, including oral mucositis, radiation dermatitis, and surgical wounds. However, the safety of PBM against cancer still needs to be validated as the effects of PBM on cancer cells and their mechanisms are unclear. The current study investigated the wavelength-dependent PBM effects by examining four different laser wavelengths (405, 532, 635, and 808 nm) on B16F10 melanoma tumor cells. In vitro tests showed that PBM with 808 nm promoted both proliferation and migration of B16F10 cells. In vivo results demonstrated that PBM with 808 nm significantly increased the relative tumor volume and promoted angiogenesis with overexpression of VEGF and HIF-1α. In addition, PBM induced the phosphorylation of factors closely related to cancer cell proliferation and tumor growth and upregulated the related gene expression. The current result showed that compared to the other wavelengths, 808 nm yielded a significant tumor-stimulating effect the malignant melanoma cancer. Further studies will investigate the in-depth molecular mechanism of PBM on tumor stimulation in order to warrant the safety of PBM for clinical cancer treatment.

Abstract
Plasmonics and core-shell nanomaterials hold great potential to develop pharmaceuticals and medical equipment due to their eco-friendly and cost effective fabrication procedures. Despite these advancements, combating drug-resistant bacterial infections remains a global challenge. Therefore, this study aims to introduce a tailored theoretical framework for a one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystal biosensor (PCB) composed of (ZrO2/GaN)N/defect layer/(ZrO2/GaN)N, designed to detect Gram-positive and Gram-negative bloodstream bacteria employing the transfer matrix method (TMM). In addition, using the finite difference methods (FDM), the photothermal inactivation of bloodstream bacteria with plasmonic core-shell structures (FeO@AuBiS2) was explored using key factors such as light absorption, heat generation, and thermal diffusion. By incorporating six dielectric layers and contaminated blood into the proposed PCB, a maximum sensitivity of 562 nm per RIU was recorded, and using rod-shaped plasmonic core-shell structures, 5.8 nm-1 light absorption capacity and 152 K change in temperature were achieved. The maximum detection sensitivity, light absorption, heat conduction and heat convection capacity of the proposed 1D PCB and plasmonic core-shell show an effective approach to combating drug-resistant bacteria.

Plasmonic porous micro- and nano-materials based on Au/Ag nanostructures developed for photothermal cancer therapy: challenges in clinicalization. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2023; 5:6768-6786.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has developed in recent decades as a relatively safe method for the treatment of cancers. Recently, various species of gold and silver (Au and Ag) nanostructures have been developed and investigated to achieve PTT due to their highly localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Concisely, the collective oscillation of electrons on the surface of Au and Ag nanostructures upon exposure to a specific wavelength (depending on their size and shape) and further plasmonic resonance leads to the heating of the surface of these particles. Hence, porous species can be equipped with tiny plasmonic ingredients that add plasmonic properties to therapeutic cargoes. In this case, a precise review of the recent achievements is very important to figure out to what extent plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) by Au/Ag-based plasmonic porous nanomedicines successfully treated cancers with satisfactory biosafety. Herein, we classify the various species of LSPR-active micro- and nano-materials. Moreover, the routes for the preparation of Ag/Au-plasmonic porous cargoes and related bench assessments are carefully reviewed. Finally, as the main aim of this study, principal requirements for the clinicalization of Ag/Au-plasmonic porous cargoes and their further challenges are discussed, which are critical for specialists in this field.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies with a high mortality rate worldwide. While surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy have shown some effectiveness in improving survival rates, they come with drawbacks such as side effects and harm to healthy tissues. The theranostic approach, which integrates the processes of cancer diagnosis and treatment, can minimize biological side effects. Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging treatment method that usages light-sensitive agents to generate heat at the tumor site and induce thermal erosion. The development of nanotechnology for CRC treatment using imaging-guided PTT has garnered significant. Nanoparticles with suitable physical and chemical properties can enhance the efficiency of cancer diagnosis and PTT. This approach enables the monitoring of cancer treatment progress and safeguards healthy tissues. In this article, we concisely introduce the application of metal nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, and carbon nanoparticles in imaging-guided PTT of colorectal cancer.

Kaur S, Dadwal R, Nandanwar H, Soni S. Limits of antibacterial activity of triangular silver nanoplates and photothermal enhancement thereof for Bacillus subtilis. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2023; 247:112787. [PMID: 37738748 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2023.112787] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2022] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/16/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
Currently, nanoparticles are being actively explored for antimicrobial applications involving variety of pathogens. Bacillus subtilis is a major concern considering its sporulation and biofilm formation capability which involves high bacteria loadings. Also, there is natural ability of B subtilis to adapt and develop resistance to the silver nanoparticles alone. So, this study reports the limits of antibacterial activity of triangular silver nanoplates (∆AgNPs) and further photothermal enhancement for B. subtilis ATCC 6051 for considerably high bacterial load of 2.5 × 107 to 5 × 108 CFU/ml. Triangular silver nanoplates were synthesized using one pot synthesis method and showed significant photothermal response i.e., ∼36 °C temperature rise on near infrared irradiation as well as photothermal stability. Triangular silver nanoplates alone showed absolute destruction for 2.5 × 107 CFU/ml initial B. subtilis load in 5 min. Whereas, for further higher bacterial loads, the antibacterial efficacy of ∆AgNPs is observed to be insignificant. For higher initial bacterial loads of 5 × 107 CFU/ml and 5 × 108 CFU/ml, photothermally enhanced triangular silver nanoplates resulted in complete destruction of bacteria in about 5 and 10 min, respectively. Antibacterial efficacy and mechanism of the destruction assessed via scanning electron microscopy and LIVE/DEAD assay confirmed morphological deformities. Further the generation of higher levels of reactive oxygen species is also confirmed due to photothermal activation of ∆AgNPs. The study concludes that ∆AgNPs alone are effective only up to bacterial load of 2.5 × 107 CFU/ml. Whereas, for higher bacterial loads of B. subtilis, photothermally activated ∆AgNPs lead to irreversible damage due to multiple targeting mechanisms leading to absolute elimination in short span of 5-10 min for the chosen irradiation conditions. Ultimately, this study demonstrates photothermally enhanced silver nanoplates as a potential antimicrobial agent for considerably high bacterial loads of B. subtilis. Overall, the broader window of considered high bacterial loadings and its irradiation by this technique shows the full-proof nature of photothermal applications for scenarios involving high cell density such as biofilms and wound infections etc. Further, the concept may be useful for sterilization or decontamination of samples, devices, etc. because B. subtilis and its spores are the challenges during sterilization.

Abstract
Rapid advancements in materials science and nanotechnology, intertwined with oncology, have positioned photothermal therapy (PTT) as a promising noninvasive treatment strategy for cancer. The breast's superficial anatomical location and aesthetic significance render breast cancer a particularly pertinent candidate for the clinical application of PTT following melanoma. This review comprehensively explores the research conducted on the various types of nanoparticles employed in PTT for breast cancer and elaborates on their specific roles and mechanisms of action. The integration of PTT with existing clinical therapies for breast cancer is scrutinized, underscoring its potential for synergistic outcomes. Additionally, the mechanisms underlying PTT and consequential modifications to the tumor microenvironment after treatment are elaborated from a medical perspective. Future research directions are suggested, with an emphasis on the development of integrative platforms that combine multiple therapeutic approaches and the optimization of nanoparticle synthesis for enhanced treatment efficacy. The goal is to push the boundaries of PTT toward a comprehensive, clinically applicable treatment for breast cancer.

Abstract
Traditional methods of tumor treatment such as surgical resection, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy have certain limitations, and their treatment effects are not always satisfactory. As a new tumor treatment method, photothermal therapy based on nanostructures has attracted the attention of researchers due to its characteristics of minimally invasive, low side effects, and inhibition of cancer metastasis. In recent years, there has been a variety of inorganic or organic nanostructures used in the field of photothermal tumor treatment, and they have shown great application prospects. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of a variety of nanomaterials/nanostructures as photothermal agents (PTAs) for photothermal therapy as well as their research progress are reviewed. For the sake of clarity, the recently reported nanomaterials/nanostructures for photothermal therapy of tumor are classified into five main categories, i.e., carbon nanostructures, noble metal nanostructures, transition metal sulfides, organic polymer, and other nanostructures. In addition, future perspectives or challenges in the related field are discussed.

Abstract
The efficiency of a cancer therapy agent depends on its ability to eliminate tumors without endangering neighboring healthy tissues. In this present study, a novel multifunctional property enriched nanostructured system was synthesized on manganese-doped hydroxyapatite (Mn-HAp) conjugated with counter folic acid (FA) IR-783 fluorescence dye. The tailored synthesis of nano rod-shaped Mn-HAp nanoparticles with high surface area allows to conjugate FA/IR-783 dye which enhanced retention time during in vivo circulation. The drug-free Photothermal Photodynamic therapy mediated cancer treatment permits the prevention of collateral damages to non-cancerous cells. The safe HAp biomaterial matrix allows a large number of molecules on its surface due to its active different charge moieties (Ca2+/PO4 3-) without any recurrence toxicity. The doped Mn allows releasing of Mn2+ ions which triggered the production of toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) via Fenton or Fenton-like reactions to decompose H2O2 in the tumor sites. Herein, IR-783 and FA were selected for targeted fluorescence imaging-guided photothermal therapy. 6The PTT performance of synthesized nanostructured system shows enhanced potential with ∼60°C temperature elevation with 0.75 W∙cm-2 power irradiated within 7 min of treatment. PDT activity was also observed initially with Methylene Blue (MB) as a targeted material which shows a drastic degradation of MB and further in vitro studies with MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line show cytotoxicity due to the generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) effect. FA/IR-783 conjugated Mn-HAp nanoparticles (2.0 mol% Mn-HAp/FA-IR-783) show significant tumor-specific targeting and treatment efficiency while intravenously injected in (tail vain) BALB/c nude mice model without any recurrence. The synthesized nanostructured system had ample scope to be a promising Photo-Therapeutic agent for cancer treatment.
