Abstract
Branched gold nanoparticle (BGNP)-coated Clostridium novyi-NT (C. novyi-NT) spores are developed for computed tomography (CT)-guided bacteriolytic tumor therapy. The BGNP-coated spores are successfully injected into a tumor site under CT image guidance. As a result, a strong antitumor effect is observed in a PC3 prostate tumor-bearing mouse model.Entities:
