Uptake of IPO into tumor spheroids. (a) IPO nanoparticles were incubated with OVCAR8 tumor spheroids for 24 h, whose cells are engineered to express GFP. The tumor spheroids were washed and examined by confocal microscopy. The fluorescence of IPO labeled with rhodamine-B is shown in red. Nuclei were stained with Hoechst dye (blue). BF, bright field. (b) Fluorescence image at each focal plane.
