Abstract
Both photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) are phototherapeutic approaches, which have been widely investigated for cancer therapy mediated by an external light source. Here, a nanosystem presenting the synchronous PTT and PDT effect realized through one-step near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation is reported. This system was fabricated by conjugating indocyanine green (ICG) on hollow gold nanospheres (HAuNS) using...
