Annotation: | Cancer is still one of the leading causes of death worldwide, therefore significant research and innovation efforts are still needed to find new materials and methods for better cancer diagnosis and treatment. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) appear to be a very promising material for use in many medical fields, such as in nanosurgery they can be used to kill tumor cells by increasing drug concentration in target cells in combination with hyperthermia as well. The presented project is focused on the development of new nanoconstructs labeled by radionuclide as a potential theranostic agent for radiotherapy and diagnostics. The first step to achieve the desired goal will be the synthesis of nanoconstructs consisting of self-heating magnetic nanoparticles coated with various biocompatible substances, which will exhibit the desired bioactivity as well. The prepared nanoconstructs will be studied by several physicochemical methods, and their stability and suitability for magnetic hyperthermia, i.e. the ability to produce heat in an alternating magnetic field, will be monitored. In the second step, nanoconstructs with the best properties will be radiolabeled with therapeutic 177Lu and diagnostic 99mTh radionuclides to prepare radioactive nanoconstructs for dual therapy and diagnosis. In the next step, in vitro toxicity testing of nanoconstructs labeled with radionuclides will be performed. The prepared magnetic magnetic nanostructured materials labeled with radionuclides will contribute to the improvement of diagnostics and therapy of cancer diseases. The project is based on a complex multidisciplinary approach, from physics, chemistry to biochemistry and biomedicine. The involved partners possess key skills, infrastructure and are highly motivated to achieve the project goals. |

Self-organization processes in soft hybrid mixtures of liquid crystals and nanoparticles | |
Program: | VEGA |
Project leader: | RNDr. Tomašovičová Natália, CSc. |
Annotation: | The proposal aims to approach the research of liquid crystals doped with nanoparticles of different kind from anovel perspective of the self-organization that has an indisputable importance covering all fields of naturalsciences, and has also a deep impact in social sciences. In such composite systems a subtle interplay amongthe nanoparticles, the self-assembling matrix and the topological defects commands the self-organizationprocess. We will focus on the electric/magnetic field induced self-organization in such systems experimentally on different length scales by investigating the processes in different phases, isotropic, nematic, cholesteric with the anticipation that our results can be exploited in applications such as guided material transport, magnetic/electric switches/sensors, chemical/biosensors, in microfluidic/lab-on-a-chip devices, etc. We are convinced that systematic studies in this topic may change fundamentally current knowledge. |

Structuralization phenomena in systems with nanoparticles | |
Program: | SRDA |
Project leader: | doc. RNDr. Kopčanský Peter, CSc. |
Annotation: | The structuralization phenomena plays key role in fundamental as well as in applied research. The proposed project is devoted to the study of the influence of nanoparticles on the structuralization phenomena in various systems as well as on the structuralization of the nanoparticles alone. Some special kinds of nanoparticles will be prepared, which will be used for study these effects. The main aim is to study the influence of the nanoparticles on the structuralization phenomena in two different kind of systems as liquid crystalline mater and amyloid structures. In the first system the magnetic particles can increase the sensitivity of liquid crystals on an external magnetic field. In the amyloid structures the nanoparticles can significantly influence the amyloid aggregation of proteins, which is responsible for amyloid diseases as Alzheimher, Parkinson and Dibetes II The prepared nanoparticles will also be used to build their 3D structures (metamaterials), i.e. to create systems with unusual physical properties as for example negative reflection. |
