Abstract

Magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) has emerged as a promising non- invasive approach for tumor treatment. 磁気温熱療法(MHT)は、腫瘍治療における有望な非侵襲的治療法として注目されている。

This work presents a novel paradigm for the biomimetic synthesis of high-performance magnetoferritins and pave the way for their clinical application in MHT.

本研究は、高性能なマグネトフェリチンの生体模倣的合成に向けた新たなパラダイムを提示し、MHTにおけるその臨床応用への道を開くものである。

unique advantages: (1) The protein shell provides natural hydrophilicity and ensures excellent colloidal stability; (2) Their inherent biocompatibility minimizes inflammatory and immuno-logical responses [10]; (3) The protein architecture precisely controls the morphology, size, and crystallinity of the encapsulated magnetic core.

ferritin stands out as a ubiquitous iron-storage protein that plays a crucial role in cellular iron homeostasis
