Folic acid on iron oxide nanoparticles: platform with high potential for simultaneous targeting, MRI detection and hyperthermia treatment of lymph node metastases of prostate cancer

Heinrich Hofmann, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Débora Bonvin, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen

The overexpression of the folate receptor in most cancers has been widely exploited to specifically deliver folic acid (FA) coupled nanomedicines to tumors. However, complex coupling chemistry is often used to bind FA to the nanoparticles. Furthermore, ver ...

Low-Dose Prostate Cancer Brachytherapy with Radioactive Palladium-Gold Nanoparticles

Thomas La Grange, Marc-André Fortin

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the leading causes of death among men. Low-dose brachytherapy is an increasingly used treatment for PCa, which requires the implantation of tens of radioactive seeds. This treatment causes discomfort; these implants cannot b ...
