A Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) collaborative research team has synthesized a nanoparticle named TRZD that can perform the dual function of diagnosing and treating glioma in the brain. It emits persistent luminescence for the diagnostic imaging of glioma tissues in vivo and inhibits the growth of tumor cells by aiding the targeted delivery of chemotherapy drugs.
