Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is an encouraging treatment under clinical investigation. In malignant cells, BNCT consists of two major factors: neutron radiation and boron uptake. To increase boron uptake in cells, we established new boron compound with peptide. New BSH-peptide will be very important drug for next generation BNCT.
