  • Title: Peptide p160-coated silica nanoparticles applied in photodynamic therapy.
    Author: Yang Y, Wang A, Jia Y, Brezesinski G, Dai L, Zhao J, Li J.
    Journal: Chem Asian J; 2014 Aug; 9(8):2126-31. PubMed ID: 24895152.
    Abstract:
    Peptide p160-conjugated mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) were fabricated and loaded with photosensitizer hypocrellin B (HB). The results indicate that the nanocomposites have better selectivity for cancer cells and higher cytotoxicity in photodynamic therapy in vitro. The nanocomposites can be used as a novel candidate in photodynamic therapy. This may be a general and promising method to modify nanoparticles to improve their cell affinity.
