Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising alternative approach for improved cancer
treatment. In PDT, a photosensitizer (PS) is administered that can be activated by light of a …

Drug delivery systems are molecular platforms in which an active compound is packed into
or loaded on a biocompatible nanoparticle. Such a solution improves the activity of the …

Magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) are increasingly recognized for their
applications in cancer therapy such as nano-cryosurgery and hyperthermia. The present …

Rose Bengal is an anionic xanthene dye, a derivative of fluorescein, born in the 19th century
as a textile dye; to date, it is known primarily in ophthalmology as a diagnostic tool and …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a vital role in the biological process. Interestingly,
based on the concentration of the ROS level, they can be beneficial or detrimental to tumor …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive technique which has proven to be
successful in the treatment of several types of tumors. This relatively simple method exploits …

Therapeutic applications of nanoparticles (NPs) are rapidly increasing for their utility in
medicine, especially cancer therapy. The present study investigated the green synthesis of …

Current chemotherapy is limited by the nature of invasive cancer cells, which are similar to
cancer stem cells. Nanomaterials provide a potential alternate mode of cancer therapy. This …

Background Exosomes are recognized as effective platforms for targeted delivery for their
high physicochemical stability and biocompatibility. However, most of the exosomes are …

Skin carcinoma is one of the most prevalent types of carcinomas. Due to high incidence of
side effects in conventional therapies (radiotherapy and chemotherapy), photodynamic …
