Gd/hafnium oxide@gold@chitosan core-shell nanoparticles as a platform for multimodal theranostics in oncology research

Chem Commun (Camb). 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1039/d3cc02971a. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn the current study, we synthesized thiolated chitosan-stabilized gold-coated, gadolinium-doped hafnium oxide nanoparticles (CAuGH NPs) with the capability of acting as a multifunctional system to deliver anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX), to enhance radiosensitization by ROS generation, and to provide magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast for biomedical applications.PMID:37721201 | DOI:10.1039/d3cc02971a
