We report the synthesis of supported lipid bilayer (SLB)-coated radioluminescent nanoparticles (RLNPs) possessing a lanthanide-based core for low-dose X-ray activated photodynamic therapy (XPDT). Methylene blue (MB) photosensitizer molecules, incorporated within the SLB, are excited by energy transfer from europium, leading to an enhanced generation of ...
