Silica
nanoparticles functionalized
with porphyrins and analogs
for biomedical studies
Flávio Figueira, José A.S.
Cavaleiro and João P.C. Tomé
Page: 517-533
This review
emphasizes the preparation and
the functionalization of
silica nanoparticles with
porphyrins and related
compounds in the area of
photodynamic therapy. In this
field, photosensitizers have
been covalently and
non-covalently linked to
silica nano particles, which
may include metal cores to
improve and adjust their
aplications.

Influencing
parameters for the achievement
of porphyrin supramolecular
architectures on mesoporous
metal oxide nanoparticles
Miquel Planells, Almudena
González, Pablo Ballester and
Emilio Palomares
Page: 592-597
Spectroscopic
characterization of a
supramolecular trisporphyrin
complex that is
heterogeneously self-assembled
onto mesoporous Al2O3
films is described. The
parameters for an efficient
complexation process, such as
dye loading, were evaluated
and discussed.

DNA-Interaction
and nuclease activity of
porphyrin-hydroxamic acid
derivatives in the presence of
lanthanides
Marie-Cécile Chalbot,
Leonidas Gryllos, Kosmas
Kefokeris, Nikos Manoussakis,
Catherine Verchère-Béaur,
Martine Perrée-Fauvet and
Athanassios G. Coutsolelos
Page: 704-717
Different
DNA-interaction modes were
observed depending on the
number of charges and
hydroxamic acid functions. The
nuclease activity in the
presence of lanthanides was
shown to depend on the 1/r0
ratio and the nature of the
lanthanide ion, and the
optimum conditions are
depicted after a systematic
study.
