Based on the starving tumor concept, we first raised an idea that the pH-sensitive Ca2+ release of CaCO3 NPs induced blood coagulation of tumor vessels, and explored the in vitro and in vivo blood coagulation behaviors of CaCO3 NPs by acid stimulus.
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.
