    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold-containing_drugs

    Sometimes these species are referred to as "gold salts". "Chrysotherapy" and "aurotherapy" are the applications of gold compounds to medicine. [1] Research on the medicinal effects of gold began in 1935, [2] primarily to reduce inflammation and to slow disease progression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The use of gold compounds has ...

    Platinum: Platinum based compounds have been shown to specifically affect head and neck tumors. These coordination complexes are thought to act to cross-link DNA in tumor cells (Figure 2). Gold: Gold salt complexes have been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis (Figure 3). The gold salts are believed to interact with albumin and eventually be ...

    gold: 79: 2a: Although some plants bioaccumulate gold, no living organism is known to require it. There are medical uses, including treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and fabrication of dental implants. [11] Some gold salts used in medicine have adverse side effects. hafnium: 72: 2: Has no known biological role. [11] Salts have low toxicity. [11 ...

  7. Aurothioglucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurothioglucose

    Gold thioglucose features gold in the oxidation state of +I, like other gold thiolates. It is a water-soluble, non-ionic species that is assumed to exist as a polymer. [ 1 ] Under physiological conditions, an oxidation-reduction reaction leads to the formation of metallic gold and sulfinic acid derivative of thioglucose.

    In photothermal cancer therapy, many gold nanoparticle molecules are used in each test and they must all be uniform in size. Including PEG coating, the nanoparticles measured to be ~130 nm in diameter. [1] Gold nanoparticles that act as drug delivery systems in conjugation with chemotherapeutic drugs typically range in size from 10 to 100 nm. [2]
