A Review on the Applications of Gold Nanoparticles in Treatment of Cancer
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Abstract: In the recent years, applications of nanoparticles in imaging and treatment of cancer has been the issue of many studies. Among different research some have focused on the dose enhancement effect of gold nanoparticles and the therapeutic potential of phytochemical reduced and bound gold nanoparticles in radiation therapy of cancer. The main idea behind the GNP dose enhancement and how to bound with other molecules in some studies is not able to explain the results specially in recent investigation on cell lines and animal models radiation therapy using GNPs. In the present article the results of the available reports and articles were analyzed and compared and the final status of the GNP-RT was discussed. Keywords: nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, treatment of cancer, dose enhancement
