RT Journal Article T1 Magnetic-Responsive Release Controlled by Hot Spot Effect A1 Guisasola, Eduardo A1 Báez Rubio, Alejandro A1 Talelli, Marina A1 Arcos Navarrete, Daniel A1 Moros, Maria A1 Fuente, Jesus M. de la A1 Vallet Regí, María Dulce Nombre AB Magnetically triggered drug delivery nanodevices have attracted great attention in nanomedicine, as they can feature as smart carriers releasing their payload at clinician's will. The key principle of these devices is based on the properties of magnetic cores to generate thermal energy in the presence of an alternating magnetic field. Then, the temperature increase triggers the drug release. Despite this potential, the rapid heat dissipation in living tissues is a serious hindrance for their clinical application. It is hypothesized that magnetic cores could act as hot spots, this is, produce enough heat to trigger the release without the necessity to increase the global temperature. Herein, a nanocarrier has been designed to respond when the temperature reaches 43 degrees C. This material has been able to release its payload under an alternating magnetic field without the need of increasing the global temperature of the environment, proving the efficacy of the hot spot mechanism in magnetic-responsive drug delivery devices.
