Gold nanoparticle (GNPs) uptake in in vivo tumour tissues and organs. (A–D) GNP amounts per gram of tissue for untreated mice, mice treated with LNPDTX-1, mice treated with LNPDTX-2, and mice treated with free DTX, respectively. (E) Darkfield images of 4 µm sections of tumour tissue, kidney, liver, and spleen 24 h after LNPDTX-1 treatment. (F) Hyperspectral spectra of GNPs within their respective tissues. Scale bar: 40 µm.
