Amphiphilic peptide coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for in vivo MR tumor imaging
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive imaging technique that provides high spatial resolution and depth with pronounced soft-tissue contrast for in vivo imaging. A broad variety of strategies have been employed ... -
A bifunctional photosensitizer for enhanced fractional photodynamic therapy: singlet oxygen generation in the presence and absence of light
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2016)The photosensitized generation of singlet oxygen within tumor tissues during photodynamic therapy (PDT) is self-limiting, as the already low oxygen concentrations within tumors is further diminished during the process. In ... -
Diagnosis of gastric carcinoma by classification on feature projections
(Elsevier, 2004)A new classification algorithm, called benefit maximizing classifier on feature projections (BCFP), is developed and applied to the problem of diagnosis of gastric carcinoma. The domain contains records of patients with ... -
Encapsulation of two different TLR ligands into liposomes confer protective immunity and prevent tumor development
(Elsevier B.V., 2017)Nucleic acid-based Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands are promising adjuvants and immunotherapeutic agents. Combination of TLR ligands potentiates immune response by providing synergistic immune activity via triggering ... -
Feasibility of freehand CT and 3-T MR guided brain aspiration biopsies with 18/20-gauge coaxial needles
(Springer, 2022-07)Background and purpose: An accurate histopathological examination with minimal neuronal damage is essential for optimizing treatment strategies of central nervous system lesions. We investigated the feasibility and safety ... -
Local delivery of doxorubicin through supramolecular peptide amphiphile nanofiber gels
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)Peptide amphiphiles (PAs) self-assemble into supramolecular nanofiber gels that provide a suitable environment for encapsulation of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic molecules. The PA gels have significant advantages for ... -
Remote-controlled release of singlet oxygen by the plasmonic heating of endoperoxide-modified gold nanorods: towards a paradigm change in photodynamic therapy
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2016)The photodynamic therapy of cancer is contingent upon the sustained generation of singlet oxygen in the tumor region. However, tumors of the most metastatic cancer types develop a region of severe hypoxia, which puts them ...
