Description

Shuao Li and co-authors review tiny particles that use sound to attack tumors in this 2024 paper. Sound-based therapy uses set sound waves to activate a sensitizer, which then creates local effects that kill tumor cells. Barium titanate particles are one such sensitizer, and they can make an electric field when struck by ultrasound.

The review sets out recent forms of these particles and how they act. Paths include forcing tumor cells into aging, into an iron-linked death, and draining their protective chemicals, which reshapes the tumor's surroundings. Surface changes to the particles are also covered. The authors discuss use across tumor types, and the hurdles before clinic use.
