Dissecting the Molecular Mechanism of Apoptosis during Photothermal Therapy Using Gold Nanoprisms
Open accessAbstract
The photothermal response of plasmonic nanomaterials can be exploited for a number of biomedical applications in diagnostics (biosensing and optoacoustic imaging) and therapy (drug delivery and photothermal therapy). The most common cellular response to photothermal cancer treatment (ablation of solid tumors) using plasmonic nanomaterials is necrosis, a process that releases intracellular constituents into the extracellular milieu producing detrimental inflammatory responses. Here we report the use of laser-induced photothermal therapy employing gold nanoprisms (NPRs) to specifically induce apoptosis in mouse embryonic fibroblast cells transformed with the SV40 virus. Laser-irradiated "hot" NPRs activate the intrinsic/mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis (programmed cell death), which is mediated by the nuclear-encoded proteins Bak and Bax through the activation of the BH3-only protein Bid. We confirm that an apoptosis mechanism is responsible by showing how the NPR-mediated cell death is dependent on the presence of caspase-9 and caspase-3 proteins. The ability to selectively induce apoptotic cell death and to understand the subsequent mechanisms provides the foundations to predict and optimize NP-based photothermal therapy to treat cancer patients suffering from chemo- and radioresistance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
