Magneto-mechanical effects of magnetite nanoparticles on Walker-256 carcinosarcoma heterogeneity, redox state and growth modulated by an inhomogeneous stationary magnetic field

Iron oxide (Fe3O4) magnetic nanoparticles (MNs) delivered to the tumor under the influence of magnetic fields can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that affect the activity of mitochondrial enzymes, DNA damage and abnormal cell growth. Previous investigations used rotating magnetic fields to inhibit tumor growth. Herein, we question whether the magneto-mechanical effects of MNs under an inhomogeneous stationary magnetic field (ISMF) can...
