Octaarginine Labelled 30 nm Gold Nanoparticles as Agents for Enhanced Radiotherapy
Traditional radiation therapy is limited by the radiotoxic effects on surrounding healthy tissues. This project investigated the use of a gold nanoparticle (AuNP) conjugated to a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) to increase tumour cell death during radiotherapy by maximizing the cellular import of the...
