From: Multifunctional Cu2−xTe Nanocubes Mediated Combination Therapy for Multi-Drug Resistant MDA MB 453
(a–l) Photothermal ablation of cancer cells (MDA-MB 453) by dual synergistic effect of drug and heat (induced by NIR irradiation), post calcein/PPi staining. Calcein maps live cells esterase with green fluorescence whereas the dead cells were stained red with propidium iodide’s dead cell specific membrane permeability. (m) In vitro anti-cancer activity of photothermal therapy (NC concentration: 0.2 mg/mL) to MDA-MB 453 cells measured with alamar blue assay. The error bar indicates SE.
