Gold nanostructures absorption capacities of various energy forms for thermal therapy applications.
Journal of Thermal Biology 2019 January
This mini-review has investigated the recent progress regarding gold nanostructures capacities of energy absorption for thermal therapy applications. Unselective thermal therapy of malignant and normal tissues could lead to irreversible damage to healthy tissues without effective treatment on target malignant tissues. In recent years, there has been a considerable progress in the field of cancer thermal therapy for treating target malignant tissues using nanostructures. Due to the remarkable physical properties of the gold nanoparticle, it has been considered as an exceptional element for thermal therapy techniques. Different types of gold nanoparticles have been used as energy absorbent for thermal therapy applications under several types of energy exposures. Electromagnetic, ultrasound, electric and magnetic field are examples for these energy sources. Well-known plasmonic photothermal therapy which applies electromagnetic radiation is under clinical investigation for the treatment of various medical conditions. However, there are many other techniques in this regard which should be explored.
