Emerging roles of carbon nanotubes in cancer therapy, diagnosis and targeted drug delivery: Current insights and toxicity considerations R. Thirumalaisamy, S. Nimithap, T. Selvankumar, R. Manikandan, P. Vadivel Chemical Physics Impact, 2026 Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have become novel carriers for both small and large medicinal compounds. Their usefulness in biomedical applications can be increased by functionalizing their surfaces with particular chemical groups to alter their biological and physical characteristics. CNTs are useful tools in the therapy of cancer because of their vast surface area, movable physical dimensions, and capacity to carry a variety of therapeutic chemicals. Notably, by transforming light energy into heat, they are used in photothermal treatment to kill cancer cells. Site-specific medication delivery has become a growing focus of nanotechnology, and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have drawn a lot of interest for their ability to transport biomolecules in cancer treatment and diagnosis. Pure CNTs, however, have drawbacks such as poor solubility, which restricts their use in medicine. One important tactic to increase CNTs' solubility and biocompatibility in aqueous conditions and make them more appropriate for therapeutic usage has been functionalization (f-CNTs). The promise of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as sophisticated drug delivery systems is highlighted in this review, with a focus on their use in targeted therapies and combination techniques such as photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic therapies (PDT), especially in the treatment of cancer. CNTs enable synergistic PTT and PDT for cancer cell death. NIR light triggers PTT heat (>50°C), causing protein denaturation, membrane rupture, and necrosis. PDT generates ROS (singlet oxygen), inducing oxidative damage, caspase activation, and apoptosis. Combined therapy achieves >90% tumor ablation while sparing healthy tissue.
Screening and Validation of Chalcone and Chalcone Derivatives against Lung Cancer Target Protein Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) Using Molecular Modeling Approach P. Senthilkumar, R. Thirumalaisamy, T. Selvankumar International Journal of Advanced Science and Engineering, 2025 A noteworthy class of polyphenolic chemicals, chalcone and its derivatives are distinguished by their 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one core structure, which permits a variety of chemical changes and expands their medicinal uses.Naturally occurring in a large range of fruits, vegetables, and medicinal plants, chalcones are crucial biosynthetic intermediates for flavonoids and isoflavonoids, which are the building blocks of numerous bioactive compounds.These molecules can have a wide range of structural variations due to the presence of multiple substituents, heterocycles, and functional groups [1].Usually, a Claisen-Schmidt condensation is used to create them.The pharmacological activity of the chalcone can be considerably enhanced by structural changes.Improved biological activity and drug-like qualities have been demonstrated by derivatives with heterocyclic rings, such as pyridine, quinoline, indole, pyrazole, benzofuran, coumarin and benzimidazole.By employing metallocene derivatives (such as ferrocenyl chalcones) or hybrid compounds that improve selectivity and potency against targets, the therapeutic potential is increased [2,3].Studies on the structure-activity relationship (SAR) have demonstrated that the biological and therapeutic activity of each derivative can be significantly impacted by substituent on the aromatic rings and changes to the ,-ABSTRACT: Using extensive in silico analysis, the current study explores chalcone and its synthetic chalcone derivatives (CD1 to CD15) as possible anticancer agents against lung cancer target proteins.Molecular docking research revealed significant binding affinities; docking scores ranging from -6.3 to -9.9 kcal/mol.CD12 chalcone derivative showed the highest docking score (-9.9 kcal/mol) among the substances that were tested against the target protein Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) (PDB ID 7R7K) through its stable hydrogen bonds and non-bonded interactions with significant amino acid residues of target protein.Next to CD12 chalcone derivative, naringenin chalcone and CD15 scores higher in molecular docking analysis.Guidelines for drug-likeness screening by Lipinski, Ghose, Veber, Egan, and Muegge confirmed that most derivatives including CD12, naringenin chalcone and CD15 had good oral bioavailability and acceptable physicochemical properties.The ADMET prediction, which demonstrated minimal hepatotoxicity, low cardiotoxicity, restricted efflux activity, and excellent intestinal absorption, supported their pharmacokinetic acceptability.Bioactivity score analysis revealed that CD3 and CD12 were promising GPCR ligands and protease inhibitors, suggesting the possibility of multi-target binding.Density Functional Theory (DFT) studies showed that CD12 and CD3 had higher softness and smaller energy gaps, suggesting greater chemical reactivity and biological efficiency.According to overall computational results, CD12 and CD3 are lead chalcone derivatives with advantageous pharmacokinetic, electrical, and bioactivity properties.Additional in vitro and in vivo testing is required to ascertain these compounds therapeutic potential in the treatment of lung cancer.
Emerging Pathogen in the ICU: Sphingomonas paucimobilis Bloodstream Infections in a South Indian Tertiary Care Hospital Nivaedhitha Mohan Kumar, Yamini Anandan, K. Nagarajan, T. Selvankumar International Journal of Advanced Science and Engineering, 2025 Sphingomonas paucimobilis is an emerging opportunistic pathogen with increasing relevance in hospital-acquired infections, particularly among patients with significant comorbidities and those requiring invasive medical interventions.This study presents findings from a tertiary care hospital in Tamil Nadu, India, where an outbreak of S. paucimobilis bloodstream infections occurred over a two-month period.A prospective observational study was conducted in which blood samples from patients with suspected sepsis were cultured and analysed for identification and antibiotic susceptibility.Forty-three blood culture samples tested positive.The median patient age was 52 years, with common comorbidities including Diabetes Mellitus (34.9%), kidney diseases (32.6%),Systemic Hypertension (41.9%), and respiratory diseases (13.9%).About 39.5% of patients had Indwelling Medical Devices, including Central Venous Catheters (20.9%) and Urinary Catheters (18.6%).The majority of cases originated from General Medicine (41.86%), followed by ICU (20.93%) and Nephrology (20.93%).Antibiotic susceptibility results showed 100% sensitivity to meropenem and high susceptibility to Amikacin and Gentamicin (90.69%).In contrast, susceptibility to Levofloxacin (37.21%),Cotrimoxazole (32.56%),Minocycline (16.28%), and Chloramphenicol (11.63%) was much lower, with the highest resistance observed to Ciprofloxacin (95.35%), followed by Cotrimoxazole (55.81%) and Cefotaxime (9.30%).The findings underscore the importance of recognizing S. paucimobilis as a true pathogen rather than a mere laboratory contaminant.Its intrinsic ability to persist in low-nutrient environments, form biofilms, and colonize hospital water systems and medical devices poses substantial challenges to infection prevention efforts.Effective control requires timely microbiological diagnosis, evidence-based antimicrobial selection, and stringent adherence to infection control protocols.
Biogenic Luminescent Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles From Centratherum punctatum: Their Synthesis Optimization Through Box–Behnken Design and Its Antimicrobial Property and Photocatalytic Dye Degradation R. Thirumalaisamy, K. S. Shalini, T. Selvankumar, M. Bhuvaneswari, M. Amrithaa, A. Aishwarya, R. Aarnika, B. Aakhil Ahamed, J. S. Anamika Luminescence, 2025 The current study utilizes Box–Behnken design (BBD) to optimize zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles biogenic synthesis from Centratherum punctatum leaf extract. The study also explores the biogenically generated zinc oxide nanoparticles from C. punctatum at optimized conditions evaluated for anti‐oxidant, antimicrobial, and photocatalytic dye degradation properties. Optimized parametric conditions for zinc oxide nanoparticles from C. punctatum were zinc nitrate (50 mM), incubation time (24 h), temperature (75°C), and pH (8). Biogenic ZnO NP characterization revealed that hexagonal wurtzite morphology was 50–70 nm in size, showing characteristic absorption at 302 nm. Further, biogenically synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles from C. punctatum screened for anti‐oxidant properties using the DPPH spectrophotometric method revealed that ZnO NP possesses an equipotent IC 50 value as the reference standard compared with the C. punctatum plant leaf extract IC 50 value. Antimicrobial screening of ZnO NP shows its maximal zone of inhibition against clinical pathogens compared with standard tetracycline antibiotic. ZnO NP showed 94% degradation efficiency for rhodamine B dye under photocatalytic degradation condition in 100 min incubation. Biogenically synthesized ZnO nanoparticles from C. punctatum leaf extract showed excellent antimicrobial and photocatalytic dye degradation useful for both medical and environmental applications.
Green synthesis of ZnO/CuTiO2/PVDF nanocomposite using Solanum nigrum extract: photocatalytic and biological applications Saravanabava J, Neelima S, Pradeep Kumar M, Lavanya Mandapati, Jayaraman Kamalakkannan, Shanmugam Vippamakula, Vignesh. R, Geetha Birudala, Vinod Kumar Nelson, Punna Rao Suryadevara, Selvankumar Thangaswamy Chemical Physics Impact, 2025 A ZnO/CuTiO 2 /PVDF nanocomposite was synthesized via green synthesis using plant extract Solanum nigrum and co-precipitation. This novel material overcomes the inherent hydrophobicity of PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) by incorporating ZnO/CuTiO 2 nanoparticles as resistive transduction layers, thereby facilitating its optical and photocatalytic activity. The ZnO CuTiO 2 /PVDF nanocomposite were characterized by SEM, TEM, EDX, PL and UV-DRS. According to the TEM and EDAX results spherical morphology and elemental composition of the ZnO/CuTiO 2 /PVDF nanocomposite were confirmed. The band gap of the ZnO CuTiO 2 /PVDF nanocomposite was determined to be 2.3 eV, which was comparatively lower than pure ZnO (3.2 eV) band gap. The photocatalytic activity of the samples is analyzed using degradation of Trypan Blue (TB) under sun light irradiation. Among the samples, ZnO/CuTiO 2 /PVDF nanocomposite exhibited 95 % degradation efficiency with 45 min over 61 % degradation efficiency of ZnO. Owing to low bandgap and lower charge-carrier recombination of composite the degradation efficiency was higher than ZnO. Additionally, the reused for up to multiple cycle after a negligible reduction in activity making it an important resource for industrial applications. Finally, the antibacterial activity of the samples is studied by disc diffusion method against E.Coli and S. aureus bacteria. Thus, ZnO/CuTiO 2 /PVDF nanocomposite with improved photocatalytic and antibacterial activity.
