Gold nanorod-assisted near-infrared light-mediated regulation of membrane ion channels activates apoptotic pathways

Abstract

We report a GNR-assisted NIR-activated tool that could open TRPV1 ion channels and regulate apoptotic protein expression, thereby inducing cell apoptosis, which might be an effective approach for cancer therapy.
