Sulforaphane Wrapped in Self-Assembled Nanomicelle Enhances the Effect of Sonodynamic Therapy on Glioma by Yihong Li, Xuejie Yang, Zhen Wei, Heng Niu, Liyang Wu, Caijing Chen, Huina Liu, Ting Cai, Huadong Fan

“…The mechanism investigation revealed that, compared with the SFN-free nanocomplex (RB@SPM), SFN@RB@SPM induced much more apoptosis of U87-MG cells in an ROS-dependent manner through the depletion of glutathione by SFN and the cavitation effect by SDT. In animal experiments, besides a significant reduction in tumor volume and a delay in losing body weight, H&E staining showed a massive infiltration of neutrophils adjacent to the tumor sites, indicating this novel nanocomplex SFN@RB@SPM can synergistically augment SDT efficacy, partially by enhancing the antitumor function of innate immunity.…”
