Disulfiram (DSF) metabolites exhibit antitumor properties when bound to Cu. This combination also promotes the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), ultimately leading to tumor cell death. In this study, CuO served as a carrier for DSF, forming a dual-drug delivery system with Cu and DSF encapsulated in polydopamine (PDA).
