Metronidazole-Modified Au@BSA Nanocomposites for Dual Sensitization of Radiotherapy in Solid Tumors

The hypoxic microenvironment of solid tumors can lead to reduced therapeutic DNA damage to the tumor cells, thus diminishing tumor sensitivity to radiotherapy. Although hypoxic radiosensitizers can improve radiotherapy efficacy by enhancing the role of oxygen, their effects are limited by the uneven distribution of oxygen within solid tumor tissues. In this study, a novel radiosensitizer
