Key challenges in medicine • Translating breakthroughs in understanding disease into preventive medicine • How to increase productivity dramatically • How to align reimbursement with better outcome and efficiency • How to reap the benefits of healthcare while reducing the inefficiencies Paul Smit, Philips: ETP Nanomedicine 2007
The Progression of Medicine Conventional “Modern” Medicine “Personalized” or “Molecular” Medicine Nanomedicine Single-cell Medicine
Definition of nanomedicine • Applying of nanotechnology in the theoretical and practical medical sciences: • in diagnosis • in treatment • in prevention • in disease control • in medical researches • Investigation and/or treating of life processes and diseases with nanoscale (10-9- 10-6 m) devices/drugs
Why does nanomedicine represent a huge promise for healthcare?Earlier diagnosis increases chances of survival. By the time some symptoms are evident to either the doctor or the patient, it may be already too late. • Conventional medicine is reactive to tissue-level problems that are happening at the symptomatic level. Nanomedicine will proactively diagnose and treat problems at the molecular level inside single-cells, prior to traditional symptoms, and hopefully prior to irreversible tissue and organ damage. • Conventional medicine is not readily available to much of humanity because it is labor-intensive and that labor is sophisticated and expensive. Nanomedicine will be much more preventive, comparatively inexpensive because it will minimize use of expensive human experts, and can be more readily mass produced and distributed.
Trends in the nanomedical research • Main targets: cardiovascular-, infectious diseases, cancer, diabetes, musculo-sceletal-, mental illness • Early and accurate diagnosis – Nanodiagnostics -biosensors, nanoscale devices • Targeted drug delivery – transfer the drug only to the diseased tissue site and monitor its impact • Regenerative medicine – intelligent biomaterials, targeted cell implantation, polymers with programmable conformation, etc. • Ethical, Legal, Social, Toxicological, etc.?

Carbon nanotubes • Allotropesof carbon • A single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) is a one-atom thick sheet of graphite (called graphene) rolled up into a seamless cylinder with diameter on the order of a nanometer. • Length-to-diameter ratio exceeds 1,000,000. • Extraordinary strength
Intracellular targeting of nucleus Cell biology of nanomaterials can reveal previously unknown cellular mechanisms and responses. On the right, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT-NH3 – blue arrow) penetrating a human cell line (HeLa) imaged by TEM. On the right, confocal laser scanning microscopy of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT-NH3) trafficking to the perinuclear region of epithelial lung carcinoma cells (adapted from Refs. Pantarotto, et al. Angew.Chem.Int.Ed. 2004, 43, 5242-5246; and Kostarelos, K. et al. Nature Nanotech. 2007, 2, 108-113 respectively).
Kidney function assay Chemically functionalised carbon nanotube body elimination through the renal route. The left image is a microSPECT image of an animal injected with radiolabelled f-CNT (red signal), indicating translocation to the kidneys within minutes. On the right handside, the two top images show single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) and the rest of the images multi-walled carbon nanotubes as imaged by TEM from urine samples (Singh et al, PNAS, 2006).
CAGED ATOMS. A water-soluble contrast agent being developed for magnetic resonance imaging encapsulates two gadolinium metal atoms (purple) and one scandium metal atom (green) that are attached to a central nitrogen atom (blue). The molecule's tail (gray and red) makes the cage water-soluble. Water molecules (red and yellow Vs) surround the molecule.

Quantum dot • Quantum dot is a semiconductor whose excitons are confined in all three spatial dimensons. As a result, they have properties that are between those of bulk semiconductors and those of discrete molecules. Colloidal quantum dots irradiated with a UV light, different sized quantum dots emit different color light due to quantum confinement

Nanocell drug delivery • Targeting molecules on nanocell attach to or enter cancer cells • Nanocell releases chemotherapy drugs and imaging particles into the cells from its core. • The drugs attack the tumour while the imaging particles help monitor tumour death

Use of liposomes in pharmacotherapy • Localized and rate controlled delivery • Improved therapeutic response • Achieve appropriate tissue or blood levels • Reduced adverse reactions • Less drug administered • Targeted drug release • Lower dosing frequency • Improved patient compliance • Simpler dosing regimens • Lower cost per dose • Utilization of otherwise un-useable compounds
Liposomal Targeting • Passive • a process by which the physical propertiesof the liposomes combined with the microanatomy of the vasculatureat the target tissue determine drug selective localization (EPR effect). • Active • requiresa homing device (antibody, receptor ligand, etc.) as part of the liposomesurface so that the liposomes can recognize the ‘‘sick’’ cells, bind to themselectively, and either be internalized by these cells or be broken down byeither enzymatic hydrolysis or processes such as ultrasonic irradiation torelease the drug near the cell surface so it will be taken up by the target cells

CNT, egyéb C alapú nanorészecskék • 1991 óta 21.236 cikk CNT (2007) • 100 cikk/hét (2006) • Gyártott CNT mennyisége • 100 tonna 2004-ben • 294 tonna 2005-ben • 2400 tonna 2010-ben (becsült adatok) • Keleti és Ázsiai piacok • Korea vezető
MWCNT falak között kb. 0.34 nm távolság • DWCNT – külső funkcionalizálható, belső intakt (mint az SWCNT) • A CNT vége lehet zárt, vagy nyitott. Ha zárt, különböző rácsszerkezetű lehet – toxicitás • A CNT erősen hajlamos az aggregációra • Erősen insolubilis • Kémiai anyagokkal szemben ellenálló • A levegőben 500 C-on ég
Szintézisének 3 lehetséges módja • Leggyakoribb: chemical vapor deposition (CVD) • Elv: C tartalmú fragmentek képzése, feloldás – tube képződés - általában valamilyen fém katalízissel, magas hőmérsékleten (500–1200 ° C). • Lehet katalízis nélkül is, de a hatékonysága alacsony, SWCNT kevés képződik így • 3 kulcs összetevő: • szénforrás (metán, metanol, acetilén, benzén, CO) • katalizátor (felszíni: SiO2, por: MgO, zeolit, aluminium származékok, szilikát, vagy levegőben • nincs katalizátor: HiPCO – nagy nyomású CO • Minden tényező hatással lehet a CNT toxicitására, nemcsak maga a CNT szerkezet!!
