Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) bound directly to luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) have shown high efficiency for intracellular uptake to breast cancer cells, MDA-MB-435S.luc. We demonstrate in this communication that inclusion of a small spacer molecule such as
OBJECTIVE
Cisplatin has limited clinical applications due to drug resistance. PAMAM dendrimer was chosen as a vehicle to counteract cisplatin-resistance and its mechanism was assessed.
METHODS
Generation 5 Polyamidoamine dendrimer (G5) was modified by glutaric anhydride (GA) and then conjugated with
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most difficult breast cancer subtype to treat. TNBC patients have significantly higher expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in tumors compared to non-TNBC patients. VEGF not only exerts its pro-angiogenic effects on endothelial cells but
In view of findings that various tumors express receptors for somatostatin, a new targeted cytotoxic analog of somatostatin, AN-162 (AEZS-124), consisting of doxorubicin linked through glutaric acid to the somatostatin octapeptide RC-121 was developed in our laboratory. We studied the toxicity in
1. Zonampanel, a novel alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA) receptor antagonist, is mainly excreted unchanged via renal tubular secretion. The renal apical transport transport of zonampanel was examined in this study using HEK293 cells expressing human organic anion
The human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) is overexpressed in 20-30% of all breast cancer cases, leading to increased cell proliferation, growth and migration. The monoclonal antibody, trastuzumab, binds to HER2 and is used for treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer. Trastuzumab has
Bombesin receptors are overexpressed on a variety of human tumors. In particular, the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPr) has been identified on prostate and breast cancers and on gastrointestinal stromal tumors. The current study aims at developing clinically translatable bombesin
