Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia (MH) mediated by magnetic nanoparticles is one of the most promising antitumor modalities. The past several decades have witnessed great progress for MH antitumor therapy in scientific trials and clinic applications since it was initially advanced by Gilchrist et al. The ultimate object of MH in vivo is to efficiently kill cancer cells, and hence, it is of great importance to develop an optimized cellular MH method to evaluate the therapeutic efficiency in vitro. In this study, we systematically studied the considerable affecting factors of cancer cell-killing efficiency during the cellular MH process, including the region of cell vessel positioned inside the alternating magnetic field copper coil, the magnetic field amplitude, the types of cancer cells, etc. Taking all these into account, we introduced a method for standardizing the cellular MH process to evaluate the cell-killing efficiency.
