Oligonucleotide-functionalized gold nanoparticles for synchronous telomerase inhibition, radiosensitization, and delivery of theranostic radionuclides

<p>Telomerase represents an attractive target in oncology as it is expressed in cancer but not in normal tissues. The oligonucleotide inhibitors of telomerase represent a promising anticancer strategy, although poor cellular uptake can restrict their efficacy. In this study, gold nanoparticles...
