This dynamic confused me until I came across the term "Pygmalion effect," which really cleared up why these outcomes were so different.

Fluorescent glyco-gold nanocluster induced EGFR mediated targeting of cancer cells† Ankita Chandra,a Preeti Ravindra Bhoge,a Remya K. R.,a Chethan D. Shanthamurthya and Raghavendra Kikkeri *a Abstract A lot of attention has been focused on the functionalization of carbohydrate ligands on specific sizes and shapes of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), where ultrasmall fluorescent AuNPs have not been well explored for direct imaging.
