Ru@SiO2-PA selectively inhibited cancer cells growth. a Ru@SiO2-PA induced pH-response cells killing between cancer cells and normal cells. Cancer cells (MCF-7, HepG2 and SGC-7901) and normal cells (HUVECs) seeded in 96-well plate were cultured with pH 6.0 and pH 7.4 complete medium, and exposed to 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 μg/ml Ru@SiO2 or Ru@SiO2-PA for 72 h. Cells viability was detected by MTT assay. b Phase contrast of cells morphology. SGC-7901 cells after treatment were stained by Giemsa solution, and cells morphology was observed by a phase microscope (magnification, ×200)
