Fluorodeoxyglucose-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles, designed to target cancer cells with high specificity when heated by an alternating magnetic field, could provide a low-cost, non-toxic treatment for cancer. However, it is essential that the in v...

An in-vivo pilot study into the effects of FDG-mNP in cancer in mice (2018)
Journal Article
Aras, O., Pearce, G., Watkins, A. J., Nurili, F., Medine, E. I., Guldu, O. K., …Akin, O. (2018). An in-vivo pilot study into the effects of FDG-mNP in cancer in mice. PLoS ONE, 13(8), Article e0202482. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0202482

PURPOSE:
Previously, fluorodeoxy glucose conjugated magnetite nanoparticles (FDG-mNPs) injected into cancer cells in conjunction with the application of magnetic hyperthermia have shown promise in new FDG-mNPs applications. The aim of this study was... Read More about An in-vivo pilot study into the effects of FDG-mNP in cancer in mice.
