• Abstract:

  Backgrounds

  Tumor hypoxia is hard to treat. 

  Aims

  To develop a new nanoconstruct with gold nanorods (GNRs) and anti-carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) that specifically binds to CAIX, a biomarker of hypoxia, to facilitate hypoxia-targeting tumor ablation.

  Methods

  GNR were synthesized and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The
