  • Publication number: 20220339604
    Abstract: A method for using a natural attapulgite is disclosed. The method includes using the natural attapulgite as a natural nano mineral enzyme. The results of the examples show that the natural attapulgite has peroxidase-like activity, catalase-like activity or superoxide dismutase-like activity, and good biocompatibility. Compared with protease, the natural attapulgite has the advantages such as large reserves, easy to obtain, low cost, high temperature resistance and wide range of pH value. Compared with a developed artificial nano enzymes, the natural attapulgite further has the advantages such as multi-function, natural non-toxic (from nature, no heavy metals), good biocompatibility, easy to obtain, no complex processing, and huge surface area which provides a place for cell growth and proliferation.

  • Patent number: 10195155
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a tumor-targeted drug delivery system, comprising a tumor-targeted drug carrier and a tumor-treating drug, wherein the tumor-targeted drug carrier comprises full heavy-chain human ferritin. The present disclosure also relates to a method for preparing the tumor-targeted drug delivery system comprising: depolymerizing a polymerized full heavy-chain human ferritin; adding a tumor-treating drug to the depolymerized full heavy-chain human ferritin so as to bind the tumor-treating drug to the depolymerized full heavy-chain human ferritin; and re-polymerizing the depolymerized full heavy-chain human ferritin bound with the tumor-treating drug to form a nanoparticle.

  • Publication number: 20150037817
    Abstract: The invention relates to a bifunctional tumor diagnostic reagent and a method for tumor diagnosis. The reagent consists of a protein shell specifically recognizing a cancer tissue and/or a cancer cell and an inorganic nano-core having the catalytic activity of a peroxidase. The bifunctional tumor diagnostic reagent has two functions, i.e., tumor specific identification and color development, and enables the tumor specific identification and the color development to be completed in one step, and the operation of the process is simple and convenient.
