Fullerenes are a class of carbon molecules that have an outer shell of hexagons and pentagons. Polyhydroxy fullerene C60 is a water-soluble fullerene that has been found to cause reactive oxygen species production in cells, leading to cell death. It has also been shown to inhibit the proliferation rate in mitochondria, which may be due to its ability to produce reactive oxygen species. Fullerenes are also fluorescent and are used for fluorescence microscopy as well as for cancer treatment.
