Multifunctional superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles: promising tools in cancer theranostics.

Abstract:

:Iron-oxide nanoparticles of small dimensions that have superparamagnetic properties show immense potential to revolutionize the future of cancer theranostics, the combinatorial diagnosis and therapeutic approach towards cancer. Superparamagnetic iron-oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have unique magnetic properties, due to which they show excellent tumor-targeting efficiency, and this paves the way for effective personalized cancer treatment. The aim of this review is to focus on the ability of SPIONs to perform multiple roles in the field of cancer biology, such as in diagnosis, monitoring, targeting and therapy. Also, other topics are discussed, including the synthesis of SPIONs, the challenges and recent advances.

  • Differential sensitivity of MCF-7 and LCC2 cells, to multiple growth inhibitory agents: possible relation to high bcl-2/bax ratio?

    abstract::Comparison of LCC2, the E(2)-independent, tamoxifen-resistant subline of the MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line with its parent line, disclosed that it is more resistant to growth inhibition and apoptosis induction by a variety of agents acting by diverse mechanisms. Thus, LCC2 cells can serve as a useful in-vitro mo...
