Overcoming challenges in cancer treatment: Nano‐enabled photodynamic therapy as a viable solution

Sheeja S. Rajan,
Rahul Chandran,
Heidi Abrahamse

Abstract: Cancer presents a formidable challenge, necessitating innovative therapies that maximize effectiveness while minimizing harm to healthy tissues. Nanotechnology has emerged as a transformative force in cancer treatment, particularly through nano‐enabled photodynamic therapy (NE‐PDT), which leverages precise and targeted interventions. NE‐PDT capitalizes on photosensitizers activated by light to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that initiate apoptotic pathways in cancer cells. Nanoparticle enhancements opt… Show more
