Boron Nanoparticle-Enhanced Proton Therapy for Cancer Treatment
Nanomaterials (Basel). 2023 Jul 26;13(15):2167. doi: 10.3390/nano13152167.ABSTRACTProton therapy is one of the promising radiotherapy modalities for the treatment of deep-seated and unresectable tumors, and its efficiency can further be enhanced by using boron-containing substances. Here, we explore the use of elemental boron (B) nanoparticles (NPs) as sensitizers for proton therapy enhancement. Prepared by methods of pulsed laser ablation in water, the used B NPs had a mean size of 50 nm, while a subsequent functionalization of the NPs by polyethylene glycol improved their colloidal stability in buffers. Laser-synthesized...
