The potential application of artemether as a novel sonosensitizer for sonodynamic therapy (SDT) was explored and illustrated for the first time. In addition, liposome-encapsulated artemether exhibited significantly enhanced sonodynamic anticancer activity. Our findings indicated that artemisinin derivatives may serve as a new kind of sonosensitizer for SDT.
