The concept of nanomaterials that can be designed and administered into the human body to improve health is of great interest. During the past years there has been an increasing amount of research on the uses of nanomaterials in diverse areas of biomedical research including biological sensing, labelling, imaging, cell separation and therapy. Three promising nanostructures developed in ICB laboratory will be presented: SuperParamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs), Titanate Nanotubes (TiONts) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).
The SPIONs presented in this talk for multimodal imaging (MRI/PET and MRI/optical imaging) are developed by taking advantage of (i) the originality of their simultaneous synthesis and colloidal stabilization in one step through a continuous hydrothermal synthesis device [1] and (ii) the association of these nanoparticles with innovative chelating agents (NODAGA, MANOTA etc.) or innovative fluorophores like phthalocyanine derivatives for near-IR detection and photodynamic therapy [2, 3].In vitro, in vivo and biodistribution results of the final NPs will be presented.
Our research group has also developed TiONts with controlled parameters from a hydrothermal synthesis and explored biomedical applications over the last decade. These nanotubes are currently elaborated as stable suspensions of nanocarriers by surface chemistry engineering. They can be used as novel transfection agents for cardiomyocytes [4] and we have shown that TiONts are capable of increasing the ionizing effect of radiation therapy in the case of glioblastoma [5]. More recently, we have demonstrated that TiONts-docetaxel (DTX) nanohybrids are versatile nanocarriers in order to limit the systemic toxicity of taxanes
and to improve the selectivity of radiotherapy (RT), alone or associated with AuNPs [6-7].
New developments will be also presented. Au NPs and SPIONs are under investigation to develop new glucose biosensors and to target and sort Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) as a diagnostic tool. Preliminary results will be presented including synthesis, surface modification and extensive characterization.
