Guangxi Medical University Details Findings in Nanotechnology (Nanotechnology-enabled Sonodynamic Therapy Against Malignant Tumors).

A report from Guangxi Medical University in Nanning, China discusses the use of nanotechnology in sonodynamic therapy (SDT) for the treatment of malignant tumors. SDT is an emerging approach that offers precise and deep tissue penetration with minimal side effects. The advancements in nanotechnology have improved the efficacy and targeting specificity of SDT. The report systematically describes the anti-tumor mechanism of SDT, summarizes the use of nanotechnology-related sonosensitizers, and explores nanotechnology-enabled therapies derived from SDT. The researchers conclude that nanotechnology-enabled sonodynamic therapy shows promise in the treatment of malignant tumors. [Extracted from the article]
