- Paper:
Highly specific in vivo gene delivery for p53-mediated apoptosis and genetic photodynamic therapies of tumour
- Journal:
Nature Communications
- Comment:
This study present an improved technique that switches to promote cellular uptake and delivery of plasmid DNA of p53 and KillerRed triggered by tumour acidosis in vivo. Such a carrier is highly versatile in its loading as well as effective in being responsive to the ‘targeted’ tumour tissue microenvironment from systemic administration.
