Number of colonies made of 2–10 human lung carcinoma cells (A549) treated with QD–MUA–FA–DOX, QD–Cys–FA–DOX, and QD–LA–FA–DOX. Data were obtained from three independent experiments. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, and ****P < 0.0001, between the studied concentrations (unpaired t-test). QD Ag–In–Zn–S nanocrystals modified with: 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA), Cys L-cysteine, LA lipoic acid, FA folic acid, DOX doxorubicin
