Abstract
Chemotherapy is the most prominent route in cancer therapy for prolonging the lifespan of cancer patients. However, its non-target specificity and the resulting off-target cytotoxicities have been reported. Recent in vitro and in vivo studies using magnetic nanocomposites (MNCs) for magnetothermal chemotherapy may potentially improve the therapeutic outcome by increasing the target selectivity. In this review, magnetic hyperthermia therapy and magnetic targeting using drug-loaded MNCs are revisited, focusing on magnetism, the fabrication and structures of magnetic nanoparticles, surface modifications, biocompatible coating, shape, size, and other important physicochemical properties of MNCs, along with the parameters of the hyperthermia therapy and external magnetic field. Due to the limited drug-loading capacity and low biocompatibility, the use of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as drug delivery system has lost traction. In contrast, MNCs show higher biocompatibility, multifunctional physicochemical properties, high drug encapsulation, and multi-stages of controlled release for localized synergistic chemo-thermotherapy. Further, combining various forms of magnetic cores and pH-sensitive coating agents can generate a more robust pH, magneto, and thermo-responsive drug delivery system. Thus, MNCs are ideal candidate as smart and remotely guided drug delivery system due to a) their magneto effects and guide-ability by the external magnetic fields, b) on-demand drug release performance, and c) thermo-chemosensitization under an applied alternating magnetic field where the tumor is selectively incinerated without harming surrounding non-tumor tissues. Given the important effects of synthesis methods, surface modifications, and coating of MNCs on their anticancer properties, we reviewed the most recent studies on magnetic hyperthermia, targeted drug delivery systems in cancer therapy, and magnetothermal chemotherapy to provide insights on the current development of MNC-based anticancer nanocarrier.

Bhardwaj A, Parekh K, Jain N. Optimization of magnetic fluid hyperthermia protocols for the elimination of breast cancer cells MCF7 using Mn-Zn ferrite ferrofluid. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2023; 34:11. [PMID: 36917271 PMCID: PMC10014775 DOI: 10.1007/s10856-023-06715-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The present study aimed to optimize magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH) protocols by standardizing MF incubation time, hyperthermic duration, magnetic field, and MFH sessions to achieve a better hyperthermic response for the profuse killing of human breast cancer cell cells MCF7. Magnetic nanoparticles and MF were characterized using XRD, VSM, and DLS. Induction heating was performed for 30 min at field strengths of 12.5 and 13.3 kA/m at a fixed frequency of 330 kHz with varying concentrations and incubation duration on MCF7 cells. Single and multiple sessions hyperthermia protocols were used to kill MCF7 cells and the cytotoxicity effect was analyzed using MTT assay. Single and multiple sessions MFH protocols were established to kill breast cancer cells utilizing 0.2 mg/mL MF at 13.3 kA/m field and 330 kHz frequency and maintaining the hyperthermic temperature of 43-45 °C for 30 min. The single session MFH revealed severe toxicity of MF leading to more than 75% of cell death after 24 h of MF incubation. Multiple sessions hyperthermia resulted in more than 90% killing of MCF7 cells after two consequent 3 h MF incubation with 3 h gap. Each 3 h of MF incubation was followed by 30 min of induction heating. Multiple sessions hyperthermia was effective in killing a larger cell population compared to the single session protocol. The results may help in optimizing protocols for the profuse killing of cancer cells of multiple origins, and aid in deciding futuristic in vivo MFH-based therapeutic strategies against breast cancer. Variation in MCF7 cells' viability due to HT, MF, and MF + HT in multiple sessions.

Hybrid Nanoparticles of Citrate-Coated Manganese Ferrite and Gold Nanorods in Magneto-Optical Imaging and Thermal Therapy. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:434.

Abstract
The development of nanomaterials has drawn considerable attention in nanomedicine to advance cancer diagnosis and treatment over the last decades. Gold nanorods (GNRs) and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been known as commonly used nanostructures in biomedical applications due to their attractive optical properties and superparamagnetic (SP) behaviors, respectively. In this study, we proposed a simple combination of plasmonic and SP properties into hybrid NPs of citrate-coated manganese ferrite (Ci-MnFe2O4) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-coated GNRs (CTAB-GNRs). In this regard, two different samples were prepared: the first was composed of Ci-MnFe2O4 (0.4 wt%), and the second contained hybrid NPs of Ci-MnFe2O4 (0.4 wt%) and CTAB-GNRs (0.04 wt%). Characterization measurements such as UV-Visible spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed electrostatic interactions caused by the opposing surface charges of hybrid NPs, which resulted in the formation of small nanoclusters. The performance of the two samples was investigated using magneto-motive ultrasound imaging (MMUS). The sample containing Ci-MnFe2O4_CTAB-GNRs demonstrated a displacement nearly two-fold greater than just using Ci-MnFe2O4; therefore, enhancing MMUS image contrast. Furthermore, the preliminary potential of these hybrid NPs was also examined in magnetic hyperthermia (MH) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI) modalities. Lastly, these hybrid NPs demonstrated high stability and an absence of aggregation in water and phosphate buffer solution (PBS) medium. Thus, Ci-MnFe2O4_CTAB-GNRs hybrid NPs can be considered as a potential contrast agent in MMUS and PAI and a heat generator in MH.

Abstract
The clinical translation of magnetic hyperthermia (MH) needs magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with enhanced heating properties and good biocompatibility. Many studies were devoted lately to the increase in the heating power of iron oxide MNPs by doping the magnetite structure with divalent cations. A series of MNPs with variable Zn/Fe molar ratios (between 1/10 and 1/1) were synthesized by using a high-temperature polyol method, and their physical properties were studied with different techniques (Transmission Electron Microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). At low Zn doping (Zn/Fe ratio 1/10), a significant increase in the saturation magnetization (90 e.m.u./g as compared to 83 e.m.u./g for their undoped counterparts) was obtained. The MNPs' hyperthermia properties were assessed in alternating magnetic fields up to 65 kA/m at a frequency of 355 kHz, revealing specific absorption rates of up to 820 W/g. The Zn ferrite MNPs showed good biocompatibility against two cell lines (A549 cancer cell line and BJ normal cell line) with a drop of only 40% in the viability at the highest dose used (500 μg/cm2). Cellular uptake experiments revealed that the MNPs enter the cells in a dose-dependent manner with an almost 50% higher capacity of cancer cells to accommodate the MNPs. In vitro hyperthermia data performed on both cell lines indicate that the cancer cells are more sensitive to MH treatment with a 90% drop in viability after 30 min of MH treatment at 30 kA/m for a dose of 250 μg/cm2. Overall, our data indicate that Zn doping of iron oxide MNPs could be a reliable method to increase their hyperthermia efficiency in cancer cells.

Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia-based cancer therapy (MHCT) has surfaced as one of the promising techniques for inaccessible solid tumors. It involves generation of localized heat in the tumor tissues on application of an alternating magnetic field in the presence of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Unfortunately, lack of precise temperature and adequate MNP distribution at the tumor site under in vivo conditions has limited its application in the biomedical field. Evaluation of in vitro tumor models is an alternative for in vivo models. However, generally used in vitro two-dimensional (2D) models cannot mimic all the characteristics of a patient's tumor and hence, fail to establish or address the experimental variables and concerns. Considering that three-dimensional (3D) models have emerged as the best possible state to replicate the in vivo conditions successfully in the laboratory for most cell types, it is possible to conduct MHCT studies with higher clinical relevance for the analysis of the selection of magnetic parameters, MNP distribution, heat dissipation, action and acquired thermotolerance in cancer cells. In this review, various forms of 3D cultures have been considered and the successful implication of MHCT on them has been summarized, which includes tumor spheroids, and cultures grown in scaffolds, cell culture inserts and microfluidic devices. This review aims to summarize the contrast between 2D and 3D in vitro tumor models for pre-clinical MHCT studies. Furthermore, we have collated and discussed the usefulness, suitability, pros and cons of these tumor models. Even though numerous cell culture models have been established, further investigations on the new pre-clinical models and selection of best fit model for successful MHCT applications are still necessary to confer a better understanding for researchers.

Abstract
Ferrites are one of the most studied materials around the globe due to their distinctive biological and magnetic properties. In the same line, anisotropic MnFe2O4 nanoparticles have been explored as a potential candidate possessing excellent magnetic properties, biocompatibility, and strong magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) properties such as r2 relaxivity for magnetic field-guided biomedical applications. The current work reports the synthesis and morphological evolution of MnFe2O4 nanocubes (MNCs) in a hydrothermal process using different volume ratios of water and ethanol. The synthesis protocol was designed to influence the properties of the ferrite nanocubes, for example, the variation in surface tension, dielectric properties, and the ionic character of the solvent, and this has been achieved by adding ethanol into water during the synthesis. Pristine MnFe2O4 is formed with well-defined cubic to irregular cubic shapes with the addition of ethanol, as evidenced from XRD, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and porosity measurements. MNCs have been investigated for magnetic hyperthermia and MRI applications. Well-defined cubic-shaped MNCs with uniform size distribution possessed a high saturation magnetization of 63 emu g-1 and a transverse relaxivity (r2) of 216 mM-1 s-1 (Mn + Fe). Furthermore, the colloidal nanocubes showed concentration-dependent hyperthermic response under an alternating magnetic field. The MNCs are biocompatible but advantageously show anticancer activities on breast cancer MCF 7 and MDA-MB-231 cells.

Abstract
Most of potential diagnostic and therapeutic nanoparticles fail to reach clinical trials because assessment of their 'drug-like' properties is often overlooked during the discovery stage. This compromises the results of cell culture and animal experiments, making them insufficient to evaluate the lead candidates for testing on patients. In this study, we demonstrate the potential of high-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) as a nanoparticle qualification tool. Using novel gold nanoparticles stabilized by N-heterocyclic carbenes as test nanoparticles, it was shown that important prerequisites for biomedical applications, such as resistance to the action of human serum milieu or reactivity toward serum biomolecules, can be reliably assessed by recording the signals of gold or sulfur isotopes. Implemented during the screening stage, the method would provide benefits in shortening timelines and reducing cost for selection and initial testing of medicinal nanoparticle candidates.

Abstract
Self-regulating temperature-controlled nanoparticles such as Mn–Zn ferrite nanoparticles based magnetic fluid can be a better choice for magnetic fluid hyperthermia because of its controlled regulation of hyperthermia temperature window of 43–45 °C. To test this hypothesis magnetic fluid with said properties was synthesized, and its effect on cervical and breast cancer cell death was studied. We found that the hyperthermia window of 43–45 °C was maintained for one hour at the smallest possible concentration of 0.35 mg/mL without altering the magnetic field applicator parameters. Their hyperthermic effect on HeLa and MCF7 was investigated at the magnetic field of 15.3 kA/m and frequency 330 kHz, which is close to the upper safety limit of 5 * 109 A/m s. We have tested the cytotoxicity of synthesized Mn–Zn ferrite fluid using MTT assay and the results were validated by trypan blue dye exclusion assay that provides the naked eye microscopic view of actual cell death. Since cancer cells tend to resist treatment and show re-growth, we also looked into the effect of multiple sessions hyperthermia using a 24 h window till 72 h using trypan blue assay. The multiple sessions of hyperthermia showed promising results, and it indicated that a minimum of 3 sessions, each of one-hour duration, is required for the complete killing of cancer cells. Moreover, to simulate an in vivo cellular environment, a phantom consisting of magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in 1 and 5% agarose gel was constituted and studied. These results will help to decide the magnetic fluid based hyperthermic therapeutic strategies using temperature-sensitive magnetic fluid.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) and core-shell type nanoparticles, consisting of SPIONs coated with mesoporous silica and/or lipid, were synthesised and tested for their potential theranostic applications in drug delivery, magnetic hyperthermia and as a contrast agent. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) confirmed the size of bare and coated SPIONs was in the range of 5-20 nm and 100-200 nm respectively. The superparamagnetic nature of all the prepared nanomaterials as indicated by Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM) and their heating properties under an AC field confirm their potential for hyperthermia applications. Scanning Column Magnetometry (SCM) data showed that extrusion of bare-SPION (b-SPION) dispersions through a 100 nm polycarbonate membrane significantly improved the dispersion stability of the sample. No sedimentation was apparent after 18 h compared to a pre-extrusion estimate of 43% settled at the bottom of the tube over the same time. Lipid coating also enhanced dispersion stability. Transversal relaxation time (T2) measurements for the nanoparticles, using a bench-top relaxometer, displayed a significantly lower value of 46 ms, with a narrow relaxation time distribution, for lipid silica coated SPIONs (Lip-SiSPIONs) as compared to that of 1316 ms for the b-SPIONs. Entrapment efficiency of the anticancer drug, Doxorubicin (DOX) for Lip-SPIONs was observed to be 35% which increased to 58% for Lip-SiSPIONs. Moreover, initial in-vitro cytotoxicity studies against human breast adenocarcinoma, MCF-7 cells showed that % cell viability increased from 57% for bSPIONs to 82% for Lip-SPIONs and to 87% for Lip-SiSPIONs. This suggests that silica and lipid coatings improve the biocompatibility of bSPIONs significantly and enhance the suitability of these particles as drug carriers. Hence, the magnetic nanomaterials prepared in this work have potential theranostic properties as a drug carrier for hyperthermia cancer therapy and also offer enhancement of contrast agent efficacy and a route to a significant increase in dispersion stability.

Abstract
The paramagnetic Y3-0.02-x Er0.02Yb x Al5O12 (x = 0.02, 0.06, 0.10, 0.12, 0.18, 0.20) nanocrystals (NCs) were synthesized by the microwave-induced solution combustion method. The XRD, TEM and SEM techniques were applied to determine the NCs' structures and sizes. The XRD patterns confirmed that the NCs have for the most part a regular structure of the Y3Al5O12 (YAG) phase. The changes of the distance between donor Yb3+ (sensitizer) and acceptor Er3+ (activator) were realized by changing the donor's concentration with a constant amount of acceptor. Under 980 nm excitation, at room temperature, the NCs exhibited strong red emission near 660 and 675 nm, and green upconversion emission at 550 nm, corresponding to the intra 4f transitions of Er3+ (4F9/2, 2H11/2, 4S3/2) → Er3+ (4I15/2). The strongest emission was observed in a sample containing 18% Yb3+ ions. The red and green emission intensities are respectively about 5 and 12 times higher as compared to NCs doped with 2% of Yb3+. In order to prove that the main factor responsible for the increase of the upconversion luminescence efficiency is reduction of the distance between Yb3+ and Er3+, we examined, for the first time the influence of hydrostatic pressure on luminescence and luminescence decay time of the radiative transitions inside donor ion. The decrease of both luminescence intensity and luminescence decay times, with increasing hydrostatic pressure was observed. After applying hydrostatic pressure to samples with e.g. 2% and 6% Yb3+, the distance between the donor and acceptor decreases. However, for higher concentrations of the donor, this distance is smaller, and this leads to the effective energy transfer to Er3+ ions. With increasing pressure, the maximum intensity of near infrared emission is observed at 1029, 1038 and 1047 nm, what corresponds to 2F5/2 → 2F7/2 transition of Yb3+.

Abstract
To date, various chemically synthesized and biosynthesized nanoparticles, or hybrid nanosystems and/or nanoplatforms, have been developed under the umbrella of nanomedicine. These can be introduced into the body orally, nasally, intratumorally or intravenously. Successfully translating hybrid nanoplatforms from preclinical proof-of-concept to therapeutic value in the clinic is challenging. Having made significant advances with drug delivery technologies, we must learn from other areas of oncology drug development, where patient stratification and target-driven design have improved patient outcomes. This review aims to identify gaps in our understanding of the current strengths of nanomedicine platforms in drug delivery and cancer theranostics. We report on the current approaches of nanomedicine at preclinical and clinical stages.

Abstract
An important research effort on the design of the magnetic particles is increasingly required to optimize the heat generation in biomedical applications, such as magnetic hyperthermia and heat-assisted drug release, considering the severe restrictions for the human body’s exposure to an alternating magnetic field. Magnetic nanoparticles, considered in a broad sense as passive sensors, show the ability to detect an alternating magnetic field and to transduce it into a localized increase of temperature. In this context, the high biocompatibility, easy synthesis procedure and easily tunable magnetic properties of ferrite powders make them ideal candidates. In particular, the tailoring of their chemical composition and cation distribution allows the control of their magnetic properties, tuning them towards the strict demands of these heat-assisted biomedical applications. In this work, Co0.76Zn0.24Fe2O4, Li0.375Zn0.25Fe2.375O4 and ZnFe2O4 mixed-structure ferrite powders were synthesized in a ‘dry gel’ form by a sol-gel auto-combustion method. Their microstructural properties and cation distribution were obtained by X-ray diffraction characterization. Static and dynamic magnetic measurements were performed revealing the connection between the cation distribution and magnetic behavior. Particular attention was focused on the effect of Co2+ and Li+ ions on the magnetic properties at a magnetic field amplitude and the frequency values according to the practical demands of heat-assisted biomedical applications. In this context, the specific loss power (SLP) values were evaluated by ac-hysteresis losses and thermometric measurements at selected values of the dynamic magnetic fields.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles of Fe3O4 doped by different amounts of Y3+ (0, 0.1, 1, and 10%) ions were designed to obtain maximum heating efficiency in magnetic hyperthermia for cancer treatment. Single-phase formation was evident by X-ray diffraction measurements. An improved magnetization value was obtained for the Fe3O4 sample with 1% Y3+ doping. The specific absorption rate (SAR) and intrinsic loss of power (ILP) values for prepared colloids were obtained in water. The best results were estimated for Fe3O4 with 0.1% Y3+ ions (SAR = 194 W/g and ILP = 1.85 nHm2/kg for a magnetic field of 16 kA/m with the frequency of 413 kHz). The excellent biocompatibility with low cell cytotoxicity of Fe3O4:Y nanoparticles was observed. Immediately after magnetic hyperthermia treatment with Fe3O4:0.1%Y, a decrease in 4T1 cells' viability was observed (77% for 35 μg/mL and 68% for 100 μg/mL). These results suggest that nanoparticles of Fe3O4 doped by Y3+ ions are suitable for biomedical applications, especially for hyperthermia treatment.

Abstract
The Gardenia, traditional medicinal plant used from ancient time to increase appetite and other medicinal uses has been employed for the synthesis of superparamagnetic α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (NPs). The plant extracts unveiled its bifunctional nature through the reducing ferric ions by phenolic groups and capping nature through the –OH bonding over the NPs surface. The prepared NPs exhibits α-Fe2O3 phase among iron oxides and spherical morphology with an average size around 5 nm. The magnetic measurements proved the superparamagnetic behavior of NPs with non-saturating MS value of 8.5 emu/g at room temperature (300 K). Further, the hyperthermia study reveals, the NPs achieved a temperature of 40 °C and 43 °C within 6 min and reaches up to 43 °C and 45 °C within 10 min only for 5 μg/mL and 10 μg/mL concentrations respectively. Based on the heating profile of NPs, the SAR values (167.7 Oe, 300 MHz) calculated and are found to be around 62.75 W/g and 24.38 W/g for 5 μg/mL and 10 μg/mL NPs concentrations respectively. Subsequently, these have been used for toxicity assays, which presented enhanced cytotoxic effects on human mesenchymal cells lines proving them as a potential candidate for the biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nanoparticle-based cancer diagnosis-therapy integrative systems (cancer theranostics) represent an emerging approach in oncology. To address this issue in the present work iron oxide (γ-Fe2O3-maghemite) nanoparticles (IONPs) were encapsulated within the matrix of (bis(p-sulfonatophenyl)phenylphosphine)-methoxypolyethylene glycol-thiol (mPEG) polymer vesicles using a two-step process for active chemotherapeutic cargo loading in cancer theranostics. This formation method gives simple access to highly reactive surface groups present on IONPs together with good control over the vesicle size (50-100 nm). The simultaneous loading of a chemotherapeutic drug cargo (doxorubicin) and its in vitro release in cancer cells was achieved. The feasibility of controlled drug release under different pH conditions was demonstrated in the case of encapsulated doxorubicin molecules, showing the viability of the concept of stimulated drug delivery for magneto-chemotherapy. These polymer-magnetic nanocargoes (PMNCs) exhibit enhanced contrast properties that open potential applications for magnetic resonance imaging. These self-assembled magnetic polymersomes can be used as efficient multifunctional nanocarriers for combined therapy and imaging.

Abstract
Fe2+ plays an essential role for artemisinin (ART)-based drugs in anticancer therapy. As a result, it is important to realize these two agents' cotransport for improving antitumor efficacy. We utilized a kind of alternating magnetic field (AMF) and tumor-responsive material-mesoporous Fe3O4 (mFe3O4)-to encapsulate ART. After that, the outer surface of mFe3O4 was capped with multifunctional hyaluronic acid (HA), which was used not only as a smart gatekeeper but also as a tumor targeting moiety. In vitro and in vivo studies proved that ART can be encapsulated in HA-mFe3O4 and protected by HA coating which could effectively avoid premature release during in vivo circulation. HA-mFe3O4/ART could be taken up by MCF-7 tumor cells via CD44 receptor-mediated endocytosis and locate at acidic lysosome. Subsequently, "HA gate" could be degraded by acidity and hyaluronidase. Then this system synchronously released Fe2+ and ART at the same site. Fe2+ can nonenzymatically convert ART to ROS for killing cancer cells. Under AMF irradiation, HA-mFe3O4 could not only effectively convert electromagnetic wave into heat for tumor thermal therapy but also generate high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) for tumor dynamic therapy. These results demonstrated that the antitumor efficacy of HA-mFe3O4/ART in vivo significantly enhanced 3.7 times compared with free ART. Combining with AMF, it further improved 3.9 times (V/V0 of 0.11), suggesting the successful combined application of HA-mFe3O4/ART and AMF for tumor treatment. It is believed that HA-mFe3O4/ART is a promising system for Fe2+-dependent drugs to improve their therapeutic effect.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SPMNPs) used for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH) cancer therapy frequently face trade off between a high magnetization saturation and their good colloidal stability, high specific absorption rate (SAR), and most importantly biological compatibility. This necessitates the development of new nanomaterials, as MFH and MRI are considered to be one of the most promising combined noninvasive treatments. In the present study, we investigated polyethylene glycol (PEG) functionalized La1-xSrxMnO3 (LSMO) SPMNPs for efficient cancer hyperthermia therapy and MRI application. The superparamagnetic nanomaterial revealed excellent colloidal stability and biocompatibility. A high SAR of 390 W/g was observed due to higher colloidal stability leading to an increased Brownian and Neel's spin relaxation. Cell viability of PEG capped nanoparticles is up to 80% on different cell lines tested rigorously using different methods. PEG coating provided excellent hemocompatibility to human red blood cells as PEG functionalized SPMNPs reduced hemolysis efficiently compared to its uncoated counterpart. Magnetic fluid hyperthermia of SPMNPs resulted in cancer cell death up to 80%. Additionally, improved MRI characteristics were also observed for the PEG capped La1-xSrxMnO3 formulation in aqueous medium compared to the bare LSMO. Taken together, PEG capped SPMNPs can be useful for diagnosis, efficient magnetic fluid hyperthermia, and multimodal cancer treatment as the amphiphilicity of PEG can easily be utilized to encapsulate hydrophobic drugs.

Abstract
The past few decades have witnessed significant advances in the development of functionalized metal/metal oxide nanoparticles including those of inorganic noble metals and magnetic materials stabilized by various polymeric ligands. Recent applications of such functionalized nanoparticles, including those in bio-imaging, sensing, catalysis, drug delivery, and other biomedical applications have triggered the need for their facile and reproducible preparation with a better control over their size, shape, and surface chemistry. In this perspective, the multidentate polymer ligands containing functional groups like thiol, thioether, and ester are important surface ligands for designing and synthesizing stable nanoparticles (NPs) of metals or their oxides with reproducibility and high yield. These ligands have offered an unprecedented control over the particle size of both nanoparticles and nanoclusters with enhanced colloidal stability, having tunable solubility in aqueous and organic media, and tunable optical, magnetic, and fluorescent properties. This review summarizes the synthetic methodologies and stability of nanoparticles and fluorescent nanoclusters of metals (Au, Ag, Cu, Pt, and other transition metal oxides) prepared by using thioether based ligands and highlights their applications in bio-imaging, sensing, drug delivery, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and catalysis. The future applications of fluorescent metal NPs like thermal gradient optical imaging, single molecule optoelectronics, sensors, and optical components of the detector are also envisaged.
