What Are Some Examples of Catalysts Used in Anti-Cancer Therapies?
Various catalysts have been explored for anti-cancer applications. For instance, metal-based catalysts like platinum complexes are widely used in chemotherapy. Enzymes such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and catalase have been engineered to activate prodrugs selectively in tumors. Additionally, nanomaterials like gold nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes are being investigated for their potential to enhance drug delivery and imaging.
