Clinical and preclinical data indicate that immunotherapeutic interventions could induce immune responses capable of controlling or retard the tumor growth. However, immunotherapies need to be further optimized. We hypothesized that a more effective strategy for tumor eradication is to directly
The purpose of this study was to target ovarian cancer cells by coupling paclitaxel (Tx)-loaded nanoparticles (NPs-Tx) to antibodies against KDEL sequence, able to recognize GRP94 and GRP78 that are located at cell surface in cancer cells whereas they are in the endoplasmic reticulum in healthy
Purpose: Yttrium-90 (90Y)-polymer composite (radiogel) may be administered directly into cancerous tissues to deliver highly localized beta radiation for therapy. In a dose-escalation study, the authors investigated the feasibility of treating feline and canine soft-tissue sarcomas
A formyl group-ended poly(DL-lactic acid) (PLA-aldehyde), synthesized in the same manner as reported previously, was utilized to produce the polymeric marker for PLA-related nanoparticles. Namely, pyrene-ended poly(DL-lactic acid) (PLA-pyrene) was prepared as a polymeric marker by the reductive
Poly DL-lactic acid (PLA) is one of the biodegradable polymers. Bleomycin (BLM) incorporated into small cylinders of PLA blends was prepared as a new dosage (BLM-PLA). When BLM-PLA was preserved in saline, the dissolution rate of BLM from BLM-PLA was 49.2% after 7 days, 85.2% after 14 days and 99.7%
The magnetic nanomicelles as a potential platform for dual targeted (folate-mediated and magnetic-guided) drug delivery were developed to enhance the efficiency and veracity of drug delivering to tumor site. The magnetic nanocarriers were synthesized based on superparamagnetic iron oxide
Irinotecan-containing nanoparticles (NP) were prepared by coprecipitation with addition of water to acetone solution of poly(DL-lactic acid), poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) and irinotecan, and subsequent evaporation of organic solvent. NP were purified
The novel nanoparticles (CPT-NP) were prepared by the solvent evaporation method using methoxypolyethylene glycol-poly(DL-lactic acid) block copolymer as a matrix and camptothecin (CPT) as an antitumor agent, and the antitumor characteristics were examined in vitro and in vivo. The mean diameter of
Ovarian cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death for women throughout the Western world. Kaempferol, a natural flavonoid, has shown promise in the chemoprevention of ovarian cancer. A common concern about using dietary supplements for chemoprevention is their bioavailability.
Two bleomycin (BLM)-containing agents (BLM-PLA, BLM-SOL) were prepared, and the drug distribution and antitumor effect were studied. BLM-PLA is an agent in which BLM is incorporated into biodegradable low-molecular-weight polylactic acid, and BLM-SOL is an aqueous solution of BLM. BLM-PLA or BLM-SOL
Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) is valid to various malignant tumors, but its insoluble and unstable lactone ring in physiological environment have restricted the clinic application. This work was aimed to formulate HCPT-loaded poly(DL-lactic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PELA) fibrous mats through blend
Several studies have indicated the involvement of macrophages and dendritic cells in active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Manipulation of these cells is considered a very important therapeutic strategy for patients with IBD. We evaluated the effect of a new drug delivery system targeting
Radiolabeled Lipiodol(®) (Guerbet, Villepinte, France) is routinely used in hepatoma therapy. The temperature-sensitive hydrogel polyethylene glycol-b-poly-DL-lactic acid-co-glycolic acid-b-polyethylene glycol triblock copolymer is used as an embolic agent and sustained drug release system. This
Small-molecule agonists for the Toll-like receptors (TLR) 7 and 8 are effective for the immunotherapy of skin cancer when used as topical agents. Their systemic use has however been largely unsuccessful due to dose-limiting toxicity. We propose a polymer-based nanodelivery system to target
In this study, 5-FU, a potent anticancer drug, is planned to be delivered via a new and promising drug delivery system, nanoparticles formed with hydrophobic core polymer and triblock copolymers; Poly(DL-lactic acid), Poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol)
