Photoacoustic Imaging: In Situ Formation of Nanofibers from Purpurin18‐Peptide Conjugates and the Assembly Induced Retention Effect in Tumor Sites (Adv. Mater. 40/2015)
Source abstract
Abstract
As described on page 6125, H. Wang and co-workers design a small molecule that simultaneously self-assembles into nanofibers in tumor sites and exhibits an assembly-induced retention (AIR) effect, which results in an improved photoacoustic (PA) imaging signal and enhanced therapeutic efficacy. It is envisaged that the AIR effect based on the assembly of supramolecular structures in living systems will pave the way to develop novel functional nanomaterials for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics.
