Abstract:
Background: Metal nanoclusters (NCs) with outstanding structural and optical properties have been intensively validated for applications in nanomedicine and nanotechnology. Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6) is overexpressed in many cancer cells. Objective: The gold nanoclusters conjugated with a single domain antibody targeting CEACAM6 of 2A3 (2A3-AuNCs) were synthesized for the inhibition of cancer cells. Methods: 2A3-AuNCs were prepared via a facile hydrothermal approach. The cell viability was measured by resazurin dye reduction assay. The cell death was analyzed by fluorescence imaging. Results: Structural and optical characterizations demonstrated the successful synthesis of 2A3-AuNCs with a roughly spherical shape and a size of 2.35 nm. The 2A3-AuNCs revealed a maximum fluorescence intensity at 350 nm with a fluorescence quantum yield of 4.0%. The cell viability assay indicated that 2A3-AuNCs could inhibit the growths of cancer cells with overexpressed CEACAM6, including breast cancer MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells. The fluorescence imaging results also demonstrated that 2A3-AuNCs could inhibit the growth of cancer cells with MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells. Conclusion: Combination with the results of cell viability assay and fluorescence imaging, the surface ligand of 2A3 antibody on 2A3-AuNCs exhibited promising inhibition of CEACAM6 overexpressed cancer cells. Our work provides a potential application of AuNCs in cancer therapy.

Abstract:
In recent years, fluorescent metal nanoclusters have been used to develop bioimaging and sensing technology. Notably, protein-templated fluorescent gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) are attracting interest due to their excellent fluorescence properties and biocompatibility. Herein, we used an exosome template to synthesize AuNCs in an eco-friendly manner that required neither harsh conditions nor toxic chemicals. Specifically, we used a neutral (pH 7) and alkaline (pH 11.5) pH to synthesize two different exosome-based AuNCs (exo-AuNCs) with independent blue and red emission. Using field-emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we demonstrated that AuNCs were successfully formed in the exosomes. Red-emitting exo-AuNCs were found to have a larger Stokes shift and a stronger fluorescence intensity than the blue-emitting exo-AuNCs. Both exo-AuNCs were compatible with MCF-7 (human breast cancer), HeLa (human cervical cancer), and HT29 (human colon cancer) cells, although blue-emitting exo-AuNCs were cytotoxic at high concentrations (≥5 mg/mL). Red-emitting exo-AuNCs successfully stained the nucleus and were compatible with membrane-staining dyes. This is the first study to use exosomes to synthesize fluorescent nanomaterials for cellular imaging applications. As exosomes are naturally produced via secretion from almost all types of cell, the proposed method could serve as a strategy for low-cost production of versatile nanomaterials.

Abstract:
Early detection of cancer can effectively improve the survival rate of cancer patients. Fluorescence imaging has the advantages of high sensitivity and rapid imaging, and is widely used in the precise imaging detection of tumors. In this study, five kinds of Au-rare earth bimetallic nanoclusters (Au/Ln NCs) were prepared by template method using five representative rare earth elements doped with gold. The morphologies, surface charges, sizes, fluorescence quantum yields and maximum fluorescence emission wavelengths of these five kinds of Au/Ln NCs were characterized and contrasted. The findings indicated that the Au/Ce nanoclusters (Au/Ce NCs) prepared by Ce doping have the longest fluorescence emission wavelength (695 nm) and higher quantum yield, which could effectively avoid the interference of autofluorescence, and was suitable for fluorescence imaging of tumor cells. In order to improve the specific accumulation of nanoclusters in tumor cells, Au/Ce NCs were coated with folic acid modified liposomes (lip-FA) to constructed a targeted fluorescent imaging probe with near-infrared response (Au/Ce@lip-FA), which was successfully used for fluorescence imaging of tumor cells. The probe has the characteristics of stable fluorescence signal, good targeting, easy internalization, and safe metabolism, and can provide high-resolution and high-brightness imaging information, which is expected to play an important role in the clinical diagnosis and surgical treatment of tumors.

Abstract:
Gold nanoparticles strongly absorb and scatter visible and near infrared light because of the strongly enhanced electric fields at the surface. This provides the potential of designing novel optically active reagents for simultaneous molecular imaging and photothermal cancer therapy. In this thesis, gold nanospheres and nanorods conjugated with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (anti-EGFR) antibodies that specifically target EGFR on the cell surface are shown to be used for dual diagnostics and therapy. Using micro-absorption spectroscopy and light scattering imaging, cancerous (HOC 313 and HSC 3) and noncancerous cells (HaCat) can be differentiated due to the overexpression of EGFR on the surface of cancer cells. By irradiating the cells with a CW laser, selective photothermal cancer therapy is realized in visible region by using gold nanospheres and in near infrared region by using gold nanorods. The use of nanorods allow for in vivo therapy due to the fact that their absorption is in the near infrared region at which the laser light meets less interference from the tissue absorption. In addition, the catalytic effect of gold nanoparticles on the oxidization of NADH to NAD+ is investigated. The addition of gold nanoparticles is found to quench the NADH fluorescence intensities but has no effect on the fluorescence lifetime. This suggests that the fluorescence quenching is not due to coupling with the excited state, but due to changing the ground state of NADH. The intensity of the 340 nm absorption band of NADH is found to decrease while that of the 260 nm band of NAD+ is found to increase as the concentration of gold nanoparticles increase. This conversion reaction is further supported by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy. The linear relationship between the initial reaction rate of NADH and the concentration of gold nanoparticles strongly supports that NADH is surface catalyzed by the gold nanoparticles. The catalytic property of this important reaction might have important future applications in biological and medical fields.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the importance of nanotechnology in cancer prevention, cure, and diagnosis. This chapter deals with the applications of nanomedicine in cancer and various strategies to target cancer cells by using nanotechnology such as gold nanoparticles, liposomes, nanodots, nanorods, etc. Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary area with potential applications in fighting many diseases including cancer. Conventional drugs have poor cell specificity, solubility, and high toxicity. The continued development of cancer nanotechnology holds the promise for personalized oncology. For accurate and self-confirming cancer diagnosis, it is essential to combine dual-mode and multi-mode imaging functionalities within one nanoparticle system. Nanoparticles improve the solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs and prolong the half-life of drugs. Disadvantages of nanotechnology include the potential for mass poisoning. Understanding how nano-materials affect live cell functions, controlling such effects, and using them for disease therapeutics are now the principal aims and most challenging aspects of nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine.

Abstract:
One uncertainty in use of gold nanorods for laser photothermal therapy is the non-uniform spreading of gold nanorods in tissue after either systemic delivery or intratumoral injections. High concentration of gold nanorods in certain areas influences the resulted optical absorption of the laser and thermal damage to tumors. This also provides challenges in designing optimal heating protocols via modeling thermal transport in laser photothermal therapy. For successful cancer treatment, the tissue should be heated with minimum thermal dosage to induce tumor cell damage, while minimizing overheating in the surrounding healthy tissues. Thus, one of the main challenges for reliable cancer therapy is to precisely control loading and distribution of gold nanorods in the tumour tissue. The critical mass transport processes are the distribution of gold nanorods after injection to the tumor and the redistribution of gold nanorods during laser treatment. Since tumors are opaque, nanostructure distribution in tissue is often studied either by theoretical modeling approaches1, or via dye enhanced imaging on superficial layers of tumors.2 It is important to find a technique which can directly visualize and analyze three-dimensional nanostructure distribution of tumors. Three-dimensional reconstructions of tumors with the ability to trace gold nanorod spreading have the potential for precise theoretical simulation of temperature fields. Previous studies showed that computer tomography (CT) scan is a promising technique to be utilized to characterize the distribution of intratumorally injected magnetic nanoparticles in tumors 3.
