Redox responsive functionalised mesoporous silica nanoparticle for targeted drug delivery of doxorubicin Seyedeh Sahar Mojtabazadeh, Mahnoosh Samadi, Sahra Perseh, Saba Saei, Reza Bafkari, Fatemeh Atyabi, Rassoul Dinarvand Journal of Drug Targeting, 2026 Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been studied for the delivery of anticancer drugs because of their unique mesoporous channels. In this study, Biotin was used as a targeting moiety of MSNs for the purpose of breast cancer cell targeting, and then, Gelatine grafting onto the surface of MSNs was carried out using glutaraldehyde-mediated cross-linking as a capping layer. Dynamic light scattering (DLS), Zeta potential change, infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR), nitrogen adsorption and desorption (BET), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used for the characterisation of size, morphology and other features related to the fabricated nanoparticles (NPs). The gelatine/biotin coated MSNs (MSN@Bio-Gel) were loaded with Doxorubicin (DOX), followed by assessing its drug loading and release behaviour. In vitro experiments were carried out for exploring the antitumor effect of DOX-MSN@Bio-Gel. The size of NPs prepared in this study was in the range of 178–286 nm. The MTT assay showed suitable anticancer activity of the NPs.Confocal microscopy showed that gelatine-coated, biotin-targeted MSNs had higher cell uptake into MCF-7 cancer cells.
Ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor based on MXene quantum dots for prostate cancer biomarker detection Mohammad Safarpoor, Arash Asfaram, Mehrorang Ghaedi, Rassoul Dinarvand Scientific Reports, 2025 Prostate cancer (PSA) is among the leading causes of men’s deaths worldwide and needs extremely sensitive and cost-effective diagnostic tools. In this study, an electrochemical immunosensor enhanced by polyaniline-loaded MXene quantum dots and gold nanoparticles (PANI@Ti 3 C 2 MXene Quantum dots-Au NPs) was constructed for highly sensitive prostate-specific antigen (PSA) detection at femtogram levels. The sensor employs V 2 C MXene quantum dots gold-nanoparticle-decorated as signal tags to remarkably enhance electron transfer efficiency and detection sensitivity. A sandwich immunoassay strategy using MXene quantum dots gave superior selectivity and quantitation accuracy of PSA. The optimized immunosensor exhibited a large linear detection range of 2 fg mL − 1 -2 pg mL − 1 with a fantastic detection limit of 0.61 fg mL − 1 . Electrochemical characterization was performed using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) to confirm successful sensor fabrication and electron transfer dynamics, while differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was employed for quantitative detection of PSA. Human serum sample validation demonstrated the clinical applicability of the platform with the presence of high specificity, reproducibility, and analytical stability. The findings place MXene quantum dots as serious contenders for next-generation biosensing technologies with a robust, scalable approach to early diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Non-invasive detection of choroidal melanoma via tear-derived protein corona on gold nanoparticles: a machine learning approach Hakimeh Rakhshandeh, Ahmad Nasiraei, Hamid Riazi-Esfahani, Babak Masoomian, Fariba Ghassemi, Mojtaba Arjmand, Saeed Heidari Keshel, Fatemeh Atyabi, Rassoul Dinarvand Scientific Reports, 2025 This study investigates the feasibility of using tear sample analysis, based on protein corona formation on gold nanoparticles combined with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and machine learning techniques, as a non-invasive approach for the detection of choroidal melanoma. The aim is to assess whether protein-nanoparticle interactions can support early and reliable identification of this ocular condition. Tear samples were collected using Schirmer strips from six healthy individuals and six patients diagnosed with choroidal melanoma, with subsequent augmentation to 18 samples per group. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs, ~ 20 nm) were synthesized via citrate reduction and incubated with tear samples to form protein coronas, which were analyzed using ESI-MS. Eight statistical and entropy-based features (mean, variance, skewness, kurtosis, Shannon entropy, approximate entropy, sample entropy, and permutation entropy) were extracted from spectral data. Additionally, Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) with Mexican hat wavelet was applied to convert mass spectrometry data into 128 × 128 RGB images for deep learning analysis. Classification was performed using traditional machine learning models (Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, Decision Tree, Deep Neural Network) and transfer learning with pre-trained CNNs (VGG16, ResNet50, Xception), evaluated through 5-fold cross-validation. Significant differences in spectral intensity parameters were observed between healthy individuals and choroidal melanoma patients (p < 0.001), with notably lower Mean_Intensity values in cancer patients (56.41 ± 46.06 vs. 111.02 ± 10.01, Cohen's d = 1.64). While m/z parameters showed moderate differences that didn't reach statistical significance (p = 0.082), entropy-based features demonstrated strong discriminative power. Among traditional machine learning models, Random Forest achieved the highest accuracy (0.959 ± 0.003) and ROC AUC (0.993 ± 0.000) with remarkable computational efficiency (3.90 s per fold). For deep learning approaches using CWT-generated images, VGG16 demonstrated superior performance (Accuracy: 0.976 ± 0.008, ROC AUC: 0.997 ± 0.002) despite requiring significantly higher computational resources (1349.52 s per fold). This study demonstrates that tear sample analysis using protein corona formation on gold nanoparticles with ESI-MS and advanced machine learning techniques offers a promising non-invasive approach for choroidal melanoma detection with performance metrics that compare favorably to existing methods. The significant differences in spectral intensity parameters between groups suggest distinctive proteomic signatures that can be leveraged for diagnostic purposes. While both traditional machine learning and deep learning approaches achieved exceptional performance, each offers distinct advantages in terms of computational efficiency and feature extraction capabilities.
