Multifunctional Nanomedicine:
Opportunity for Targeted Drug and Gene Delivery
May 29, 2009

Dr. AmijiFeatured guest speaker:
Mansoor M. Amiji, Ph.D.

Professor and Interim Chair of the Pharmaceutical Sciences Department and Co-Director of Nanomedicine Education and Research Consortium (NERC) at Northeastern University

Webinar Abstract
For many diseases such as cancer, overcoming biologic barriers and target specific delivery are key treatment challenges. Others require robust and highly specific intracellular delivery strategy. The webinar will cover...

* Overview of recent work in nanotechnology for target specific delivery of drugs and genes (polymers, liposomes, metal-based nanoplatforms)
* Biodegradable polymers for systemic delivery of hydrophobic anticancer drugs and therapeutic genes
* Nanoemulsions (using omega-3 oils) to facilitate drug delivery across different biological barriers
* Nanotechnology platforms for systemic and oral gene delivery for anti-angiogenesis and IBD, respectively

After his presentation, Dr. Amiji will field attendee questions.

Researchers at the University of Virginia have discovered a method for destroying tumor cells by using nanoparticles and light. Wensha Yang’s technique is actually dealing with quantum dots. Quantum dots are semiconductor nanoforms which can emit light when exposed to radiation (ultra-violet). The researchers also discovered that the light is being emitted when exposed to x-rays (cancer therapy). That’s why this method is great for treating cancer.

Photofrin (approved by FDA) is the compound which acts as photosensitizer. It gets absorbed by cancer cells. When those cells get exposed to light, the compound becomes active and kills the cancer cells.

Yang has described this method in his talk called “Enhanced Energy Transfer From Mega-Voltage Radiation to the Tumor Cell Killing Singlet Oxygen by Semiconductive Nanoparticles” which took place on Tuesday, July 29, 2008.

Welcome

Welcome! Nanopaprika was cooked up by Hungarian chemistry PhD student in 2007. The main idea was to create something more personal than the other nano networks already on the Internet. Community is open to everyone from post-doctorial researchers and professors to students everywhere.

There is only one important assumption: you have to be interested in nano!

Dr. András Paszternák, founder of Nanopaprika
