Multifunctional iron oxide nanoparticles for diagnostics, therapy and macromolecule delivery
In recent years, multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) consisting of either metal (e.g. Au), or magnetic NP (e.g. iron oxide) with other fluorescent components such as quantum dots (QDs) or organic dyes have been emerging as versatile candidate systems for cancer diagnosis, therapy, and macromolecu...

| description | In recent years, multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) consisting of either metal (e.g. Au), or magnetic
NP (e.g. iron oxide) with other fluorescent components such as quantum dots (QDs) or
organic dyes have been emerging as versatile candidate systems for cancer diagnosis, therapy, and
macromolecule delivery such as micro ribonucleic acid (microRNA). This review intends to
highlight the recent advances in the synthesis and application of multifunctional NPs (mainly iron
oxide) in theranostics, an area used to combine therapeutics and diagnostics. The recent applications
of NPs in miRNA delivery are also reviewed. |
