Development of Aminated Chitosan-Functionalized Magnetite Nanoparticles Enriched with Zinc Phthalocyanine: Detailed Photophysical and Model Cell Membrane Studies
Abstract:Stimuli-induced anticancer therapies based on remotely
activated
nanoagents have drawn a great deal of attention as attractive alternatives
to conventional therapies. The rapid development of nanomaterial functionalization
in the past few decades has allowed for the tailoring of hybrid nanoagents
with dual anticancer activity and the simultaneous application of
two complementary stimuli-triggered therapies, enhancing a therapeutic
effect. In this study, the synthesis and characterization of the novel
aminated … Show more
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.
