Enhanced Intracellular Photosensitizer Uptake and Retention by Targeting Viral Oncoproteins in Human Papillomavirus Infected Cancer Cells and Cancer Stem Cells
Immunogenic proteins in cancer are relevant targets for drug delivery. In Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), surface antigens have previously been used to deliver the photosensitizer (PS) to the tumor microenvironment for specific targeting. However, can we target intracellular antigens to achieve more tha...
