title: Synthesis of partially dextran-coated gold nanoworms and anisotropic structure based dual-strategic cargo conjugation for efficient combinational cancer therapy.
abstract: Partially dextran-coated gold nanoworms enabled the dual-strategic conjugation of peptides and genes. Combinational cancer therapy with photothermal conversion under near-infrared irradiation was shown to be a highly efficient cancer treatment.
