Hetastarch-stabilized polypyrrole with hyperthermia-enhanced release and catalytic activity for synergistic antitumor therapy

Abstract

Biodegradable HES@CuP-D with good dispersibility has been elaborately fabricated by one-step synthesis using safety-approved hetastarch as a novel stabilizer and CuCl2 as an oxidant for hyperthermia-accelerated DOX release and -enhanced Fenton catalysis against malignant tumors.
