Artigo IPEN-doc 28073 The state of the art of theranostic nanomaterials for lung, breast, and prostate cancers2021 - FREITAS, LUCAS F.; FERREIRA, ARYEL H.; THIPE, VELAPHI C.; VARCA, GUSTAVO H.C.; LIMA, CAROLINE S.A.; BATISTA, JORGE G.S.; RIELLO, FABIANE N.; NOGUEIRA, KAMILA; CRUZ, CASSIA P.C.; MENDES, GIOVANNA O.A.; RODRIGUES, ADRIANA S.; SOUSA, THAYNA S.; ALVES, VICTORIA M.; LUGAO, ADEMAR B.The synthesis and engineering of nanomaterials offer more robust systems for the treatment of cancer, with technologies that combine therapy with imaging diagnostic tools in the so‐called nanotheranostics. Among the most studied systems, there are quantum dots, liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, inorganic nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, dendrimers, and gold nanoparticles. Most of the advantages of nanomaterials over the classic anticancer therapies come from their optimal size, which prevents the elimination by the kidneys and enhances their permeation in the tumor due to the abnormal blood vessels present in cancer tissues. Furthermore, the drug delivery and the contrast efficiency for imaging are enhanced, especially due to the increased surface area and the selective accumulation in the desired tissues. This property leads to the reduced drug dose necessary to exert the desired effect and for a longer action within the tumor. Finally, they are made so that there is no degradation into toxic byproducts and have a lower immune response triggering. In this article, we intend to review and discuss the state‐of‐the‐art regarding the use of nanomaterials as therapeutic and diagnostic tools for lung, breast, and prostate cancer, as they are among the most prevalent worldwide.Artigo IPEN-doc 25206 An overview of the synthesis of gold nanoparticles using radiation technologies2018 - FREITAS, LUCAS F. de; VARCA, GUSTAVO H.C.; BATISTA, JORGE G. dos S.; LUGAO, ADEMAR B.At a nano-level, optical properties of gold are unique and gave birth to an emerging platform of nanogold-based systems for diverse applications, because gold nanoparticle properties are tunable as a function of size and shape. Within the available techniques for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles, the radiolytic synthesis allows proper control of the nucleation process without the need for reducing agents, in a single step, combined or not with simultaneous sterilization. This review details and summarizes the use of radiation technologies for the synthesis and preparation of gold nanoparticles concerning fundamental aspects, mechanism, current pathways for synthesis and radiation sources, as well as briefly outlines final applications and some toxicity aspects related to nanogold-based systems.
