Abstract:
Magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) are emerging non-invasive cancer treatments that leverage reactive oxygen species (ROS) to induce tumor cell death. While MHT uses magnetic nanoparticles to generate localized heat under an alternating magnetic field, its efficacy can be limited by low ROS levels in hypoxic tumor microenvironments. CDT complements MHT by inducing toxic hydroxyl radicals through Fenton reactions, enhancing ROS production and antitumor effects. This mini-review discusses the synergistic potential of combining MHT with CDT using multifunctional nanomaterials, offering insights into enhanced ROS-mediated cancer therapy and future directions for clinical applications.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
