One-Pot Synthesis Bodipy Nano-Precipitations for Prostate Cancer Treatment

Here in this study, we proposed a polystyrene maleic anhydride (PSMA) stabilized Bodipy nanoparticles (PB NPs) in a one-pot approach for the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of prostate cancer. The nanoparticle formed by precipitation method was then employed to treat PC-3 cells and PC-3 tumor bearing nude mice model. It was shown that this platform showed promising anticancer performance than free bodipy with reduced side effects.
