Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an alternative method for treating cancers, and its outcomes are highly dependent on light delivery to tumor cells to activate a photosensitizer. Existing approaches paired with advances in wireless technologies enable remote delivery of light to tumors but suffer from poor spatiotemporal resolution due to inabilities to minimize oxygen depletion in a tumor. Here, we introduce AI-informed low-power wireless telemetry with an integrated thermal/light simulation platform that bypasses all constraints above. The simulator leads to the optimized combination of wavelengths and light sources, and AI-assisted wireless telemetry uses the parameters from the simulator to enable adequate illumination of tumors through high-throughput (< 20 mice) and multi-wavelength operation. They establish a range of guidelines for effective PDT regimen design. Hypericin and Foscan mediated PDT demonstrated substantial suppression of tumor growth, suggesting that the proposed platform provides the potential for widespread use in fundamental research and/or clinical settings.

Oxygen Diffusion Rate

Low temperature annealing (<400°C) of YBa2Cu3O7x in a ozone containing oxygen atmosphere is sometimes carried out to oxygenate oxygen deficient thin films. Also, this technique can be used to fully oxygenate thinned TEM specimens when oxygen depletion in thin regions is suspected. However, the effects on the microstructure nor the extent of oxygenation of specimens has not been documented for specimens exposed to an ozone atmosphere. A particular concern is the fact that the ozone gas is so reactive and the oxygen diffusion rate at these temperatures is so slow that it may damage the specimen by an over-reaction. Thus we report here the results of an investigation on the microstructural effects of exposing a thinned YBa2Cu3O7-x specimen in an ozone atmosphere using transmission electron microscopy and energy loss spectroscopy techniques.

Upconversion Nanoparticles

A near-infrared (NIR) activated theranostic nanoplatform based on upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) is developed in order to overcome the hypoxia-associated resistance in photodynamic therapy by photo-release of NO upon NIR illumination.
