E. Coli Nanomaterial Aids Cancer Photothermal and Immunotherapy
A recent article published in the journal ACS Nano discusses the application of Escherichia coli (E. coli)-mimetic nanomaterials for photolytic treatment of CT-26 or 4T1 tumors. The authors synthesized the target nanomaterials using E. coli membrane proteins, gold nanorods (AuNRs), and adhesion proteins and named them E. coli-mimetic AuNRs (ECA). Further, the synthesized ECA showed a preventive effect in mice with [...]
