Theranostic and Combined Approaches Exploiting Multifunctional Gold Nanoclusters in Tumoral Ecosystems: A Paradigm Shift in Precision Oncology

This study focuses on the expansion of diagnostic applications in cancer therapy by utilizing AuNC-based devices, made possible by the use of dynamic or passive tumor targeting techniques. The utilization of AuNCs has been thoroughly investigated for their prospective applicability as light-activated and radiation agents. Furthermore, they have been investigated as nanocarriers for transporting anticancer drugs. The medications can either bind to the closure receptor or be linked to the AuNCs through various techniques, showcasing their extensive potential for therapeutic applications.PMID:38571350 | DOI:10.2174/0118744710283369240328082442
