Bioorthogonal Photoactivation of 2‐Nitrobenzyl Caged Doxorubicin Anticancer Prodrugs on Gold Nanostars Open
Bioorthogonal chemistry that can be controlled through near‐infrared (NIR) light is a promising route to therapeutics. This study proposes a method to intracellularly photoactivate prodrugs using plasmonic gold nanostars (AuNSt) and NIR ir…
Wavelength‐Dependent Differential Amplification of Raman Scattering by Chiral Gold Nanorods for Multiplexed Encoding Open
The application of wavelength‐dependent differential circularly polarized light‐induced surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (CPL‐SERS) is reported for codification and encryption, using colloidal chiral plasmonic nanoparticles. This study de…
Positron Emission Tomography‐Assisted Photothermal Therapy with Gold Nanorods Open
Photothermal anticancer therapy based on plasmonic nanoparticles is proposed to enhance treatment efficacy while mitigating unintended side effects. However, most studies blindly rely on the accumulation of nanoparticles at the tumor site,…
A Scaffold-Assisted 3D Cancer Cell Model for Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering-Based Real-Time Sensing and Imaging Open
Despite recent advances in the development of scaffold-based three-dimensional (3D) cell models, challenges persist in imaging and monitoring cell behavior within these complex structures due to their heterogeneous cell distribution and ge…
Machine Learning‐Assisted High‐Throughput SERS Classification of Cell Secretomes Open
During the response to different stress conditions, damaged cells react in multiple ways, including the release of a diverse cocktail of metabolites. Moreover, secretomes from dying cells can contribute to the effectiveness of anticancer t…
