Abstract: Photothermal therapy requires a biocompatible material to absorb near-infrared (NIR) light and generate sufficient heat. Herein, we suggest natural melanin-loaded nanovesicles (melasicles) as photothermal therapeutic agents (PTA) for NIR mediated cancer therapy in vivo. The… read more here.
