We are thrilled to share our latest research in collaboration with Shenyang Pharmaceutical University! Our study, led by Dr. Chutong Tian, introduces a self-motivated carrier-free nanoplatform that synergizes photodynamic therapy (PDT) and ferroptosis for targeted anticancer treatment.

Title: A self-motivated carrier free nanoplatform for synergistic photodynamic and ferroptosis-based therapy for targeted antitumor treatment

Journal: Nano Research

Authors: Chutong Tian, Wenjing Ma, Jianbin Shi, Jia Deng, Zeping Gao, Haowen Tian, Ayumi Kikkawa, Kaho Tanaka, Ronggang Xi, Cong Luo, Xiaobo Wang, Ken-ichiro Kamei

🔬 Key Highlights:
✅ Overcomes tumor resistance by combining PDT with ferroptosis-driven therapy
✅ Uses a light-boosted nanoplatform (PLA@R NPs) to trigger precise drug release
✅ Enhances oxidative stress and improves treatment efficacy in a tumor-on-a-chip model
✅ Demonstrates significant in vivo antitumor effects

Our approach addresses the challenges of low oxygen levels and excess glutathione (GSH) in tumor tissues, paving the way for a more effective and tumor-specific treatment strategy.
