Glu-GNPs can increase the cytotoxicity of radiation toward MDA-MB-231 cells, probably by regulating the distribution of the cell cycle, with more cells in the G2/M phase. The effect of radiation enhancement may be related to the quantities of Glu-GNPs in the cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
