Potentiating angiogenesis arrest in vivo via laser irradiation of peptide functionalised gold nanoparticles

Abstract Background Anti-angiogenic therapy has great potential for cancer therapy with several FDA approved formulations but there are considerable side effects upon the normal blood vessels that decrease the potential application of such therapeutics. Chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) has bee...
