New magnetogels based on manganese ferrite nanoparticles and self-assembled peptide hydrogels as drug nanocarriers

In this work, superparamagnetic manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) nanoparticles were successfully incorporated in self-assembled peptide-derived hydrogels. The new magnetogels were tested as nanocarriers for two fluorescent drugs, curcumin (an anticancer and neuroprotective drug) and a new antitumor thien...
