Biocompatible nucleus-targeted graphene quantum dots for selective killing of cancer cells via DNA damage

Biocompatible nucleus-targeted graphene quantum dots for selective killing of cancer cells via DNA damage

Qi et al. develop nucleus targeting graphene quantum dots (GQDs) by modifying amine-functionalised GQDs with nucleus targeting TAT peptides. The resulting functionalised GQDs exhibit good biocompatibility, nucleus uptake, and cancer cell targeting. They can suppress growth of cancer cells by selecti...
