These bands are capable of distinguishing cancer cell DNA from healthy cell DNA. For this simple and label-free DNA detection approach, we used conventional spherical silver nanoparticles, at a high concentration, without any aggregating agents, which gave highly reproducible SERS spectra of DNA separated from various human cells irrespective of their highly complex compositions and sequences. The observed phenomenon is attributed to the change in the chemical environment due to the presence of nucleobase lesions in cancer cell DNA and subsequent variation in the nearby electronic cloud during the dehydration-driven conformational changes. Detailed analysis of the SERS spectra gives important insight about the lesion-induced structural modifications upon dehydration in the cancer cell DNA. These results have widespread implications in cancer diagnostics, where SERS provides vital information about the DNA modifications in the cancer cells.[on SciFinder (R)]</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MEDLINE AN 2013442001(Journal; Article; (JOURNAL ARTICLE))</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huang, Xiaohua</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jain, Prashant K</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">El Sayed, I.H.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">El-Sayed, Mostafa A.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) using gold nanoparticles</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lasers in Medical Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">display</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jul</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></number><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">23</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">217-228</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0268-8921</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The use of lasers, over the past few decades, has emerged to be highly promising for cancer therapy modalities, most commonly the photothermal therapy method, which employs light absorbing dyes for achieving the photothermal damage of tumors, and the photodynamic therapy, which employs chemical photosensitizers that generate singlet oxygen that is capable of tumor destruction. However, recent advances in the field of nanoscience have seen the emergence of noble metal nanostructures with unique photophysical properties, well suited for applications in cancer phototherapy. Noble metal nanoparticles, on account of the phenomenon of surface plasmon resonance, possess strongly enhanced visible and near-infrared light absorption, several orders of magnitude more intense compared to conventional laser phototherapy agents. The use of plasmonic nanoparticles as highly enhanced photoabsorbing agents has thus introduced a much more selective and efficient cancer therapy strategy, viz. plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT). The synthetic tunability of the optothermal properties and the bio-targeting abilities of the plasmonic gold nanostructures make the PPTT method furthermore promising. In this review, we discuss the development of the PPTT method with special emphasis on the recent in vitro and in vivo success using gold nanospheres coupled with visible lasers and gold nanorods and silica-gold nanoshells coupled with near-infrared lasers.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WOS:000256912200001</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huang, Xiaohua Jain, Prashant K.
