Photodynamic effects of C60/HP-β-CyD nanoparticles (C60 = 2.0 mg/kg) on tumor growth after intratumor injection to the tumor-bearing mice plus light irradiation. Black filled circle: saline; empty square: C60/HP-β-CyD plus light irradiation (30 J/cm2); empty circle: C60/HP-β-CyD plus light irradiation (60 J/cm2); empty lozenge: C60/HP-β-CyD plus light irradiation (75 J/cm2); empty triangle: saline plus light irradiation (75 J/cm2). Each point represents the mean ± S.E. of 3–9 experiments. * versus saline.
