Phototherapeutic β-Cyclodextrin-Branched Polymer Releasing Nitric Oxide with Fluorescent Self-Reporting and Its Combination with Doxorubicin
CarboHyde, in collaboration with researchers including Salvo Sortino, Szabolcs Béni, and Milo Malanga, developed a photoresponsive β-cyclodextrin branched polymer. When exposed to visible blue light, this polymer generates nitric oxide. The researchers tested doxorubicin (DOX) in combination with the polymer. In darkness, DOX showed minimal cytotoxic effects at sub-therapeutic doses, whether used alone or combined […]
