A two-pronged concept combining photodynamic therapy (PDT) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) blockade in a minimalist nanoplatform was proposed to combat basal-like breast cancer (BLBC) metastasis. Based on PDT-mediated tumor killing and epalrestat (Epa)-mediated EMT blockade, as-prepared Ce6/Epa nanoparticles prevented BLBC metastasis effectively in vivo, providing a very promising two-pronged strategy against BLBC metastasis.
提出了一种两管齐下的概念,即将光动力疗法 (PDT) 和上皮-间充质转化 (EMT) 阻断结合在一个极简纳米平台中,以对抗基底样乳腺癌 (BLBC) 的转移。基于 PDT 介导的肿瘤杀伤和依帕司他 (Epa) 介导的 EMT 阻断,所制备的 Ce6/Epa 纳米颗粒在体内有效地预防了 BLBC 的转移,为对抗 BLBC 转移提供了一种很有前途的两管齐下的策略。
