Dextran-Cholesterol Carrier Encapsulated Efficient Photosensitizer for the Photodynamic Killing of Cancer Cells
Selective photodynamic therapy (PDT) for cancer cells is more efficient and much safer. Most selective PDTs are realized by antigene-biomarker or peptide-biomarker interactions. Here, we modified dextran with hydrophobic cholesterol as a photosensitizer carrier to selectively target cancer cells, in...
