Abstract

In this work, the shape effect of our same-sized hybrid nanomaterials conjugated with two different Plk1-specific peptides had been investigated in terms of their photophysical properties, cellular uptake efficiencies, and selective inhibitory effects towards cancer and normal cells. The results clearly indicate that our spherical NaGdF4
