Development of Folic Acid-Conjugated and Methylene Blue-Adsorbed Au@TNA Nanoparticles for Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy of Bladder Cancer Cells

Development of Folic Acid-Conjugated and Methylene Blue-Adsorbed Au@TNA Nanoparticles for Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy of Bladder Cancer Cells

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising treatment for malignancy. However, the low molecular solubility of photosensitizers (PSs) with a low accumulation at borderline malignant potential lesions results in the tardy and ineffective management of recurrent urothelial carcinoma. Herein, we used tan...
