Abstract

Au25 clusters stabilized by tridecapeptides were firstly synthesized, which can well penetrate the cell membrane and exactly locate in the cytoplasm. Hence the Au clusters significantly suppress the TrxR1 activity in cytoplasm, and further induce the up-regulation of activated PARP level which carries the tumor cell apoptosis in Au dose dependent manner
