Investigation of Microbubble-enhanced Mild Hyperthermia with Focused Ultrasound for Drug Delivery Enhancement
… temperature of the tumor by 5-10 ℃, defined as mild hyperthermia, results in increased drug uptake of the tumor. Heating of the tumor can be performed via High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) however, HIFU focuses energy onto a millimeter size area. Prior work has shown that adding …

Strategies for Overcoming Shortcomings of Thermal Ablations: A Comprehensive Study of Nanoparticle Transport During Photothermal Chemotherapy Treatments, and High Frequency Irreversible Electroporation
… of research is focused on utilizing non-lethal hyperthermia to enhance carried chemotherapeutic drugs. Additionally a novel field of non-thermal ablations termed Irreversible Electroporation has recently been developed to treat tumors by irreversibly destroying cell membrane function through …

Magnetic Characterisation of Nanostructured Magnetic Systems Using SQUID Magnetometry
… of synthesizing a suitable mediator for magnetic hyperthermia treatment. The magnetic heating exhibited by the MNPs was shown to be enhanced when the dopant ion radius was larger than that of the La3+ ion, and reduced when the dopant ion radius was smaller. La0.60Sr0.40MnO3proved to show the most …

Effects of Mild Heating on the Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells during Inflammation
… correlated with reparative processes in tissue. Mild heat shock has been shown to induce proliferation and differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells in vitro. The central hypothesis of our study is that mild heat shock may facilitate the bone and cartilage regeneration from MSCs under inflammatory …

Enhancing Cisplatin Delivery and Anti-tumor Efficacy Using Hyperthermia
<p>Mild hyperthermia (39°C-43°C) has numerous therapeutic benefits as an adjuvant therapy in the treatment of a variety of tumor types. Hyperthermia increases tumor blood flow and vascular permeability, promoting drug delivery and tumor oxygenation. Hyperthermia enhances the uptake and efficacy of …
