Mild thermotherapy and hyperbaric oxygen enhance sensitivity of TMZ/PSi nanoparticles via decreasing the stemness in glioma

Abstract Background Glioma is a common brain tumor with a high mortality rate. A small population of cells expressing stem-like cell markers in glioma contributes to drug resistance and tumor recurrence. Methods Porous silicon nanoparticles (PSi NPs) as photothermal therapy (PTT) agents loaded with...
