      Background: Numerous studies have proposed the use of fluorescent semiconductor nanoparticles or quantum dots (QDs) as novel tools to label cells and tumors. However, QD applications are limited by their toxicity in ...
    • Prades, Roger; Guerrero, Simón; Araya, Eyleen; Molina, Claudia; Salas, Edison; Zurita, Esther; Selva, Javier; Egea, Gustavo; López-Iglesias, Carmen; Teixidó, Meritxell; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo; Giralt, Ernest (2012)
      The treatment of Alzheimer's disease and many other brain-related disorders is limited because of the presence of the blood-brain barrier, which highly regulate the crossing of drugs. Metal nanoparticles have unique features ...
    • Hassan, Natalia; Oyarzún Ampuero, Felipe; Muñoz Lara, Pablo; Guerrero, Simón; Cabuil, Valérie; Abou-Hassan, Ali; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo (Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2014)
      In this article we review the flow chemistry methodologies for the controlled synthesis of different kind of nano and microparticles for biomedical applications. Injection mechanism has emerged as new alternative for the ...

G.; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo (BMC, 2020)
      Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have shown great potential for targeted therapy, as they have a natural ability to pass through biological barriers and, depending on their origin, can preferentially accumulate at ...
    • Guerrero, Simón; Díaz García, Víctor; Contreras-Orellana, Pamela; Muñoz Lara, Pablo; Palma, Sujey; Guzmán, Fanny; Lobos González, Lorena; Cárdenas, Areli; Rojas Silva, Ximena; Muñoz, Luis; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo; Quest, Andrew F. G. (Future Medicine, 2018-06)
      Aim: To track early events during lung metastasis, we labeled cells expressing (B16F10(CAV1)) or lacking CAV1 (B16F10(mock)) with gold nanoparticles conjugated to the peptide TAT (AuNPs-PEG-TAT). Methods: B16F10 expressing ...
    • Ortiz, Rina; Díaz, Jorge; Díaz Valdivia, Natalia; Martínez Meza, Samuel; Simón, Layla; Contreras Orellana, Pamela; Lobos González, Lorena; Guerrero, Simón; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Quest, Andrew F. G. (Elsevier, 2020)
      In advanced stages of cancer disease, caveolin-1 (CAV1) expression increases and correlates with increased migratory and invasive capacity of the respective tumor cells. Previous findings from our laboratory revealed that ...
