Recent trends of mesoporous silica-based nanoplatforms for nanodynamic therapies

Nanodynamic therapies that generate free radicals/reactive oxygen species (ROS) in situ have the possibility to treat deep-seated tumors and have gradually become attractive treatment strategies. Nanosensitizers are triggered either by exogenous/endogenous activators such as near-infrared light, ultrasound, X-ray, and microwave or by internal chemical/biological reaction in tumor microenvironment to generate free radicals for nanodynamic...
