Immunofluorescence staining, electron microscopy, and (51Cr) cytolytic release assays are used to investigate the effects of taxol and taxol/hyperthermia treatments on the microtubule organization and cytolytic activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). A 4 h treatment of CTLs with 1 microM taxol
Novel thermo-sensitive nanoparticles self-assembled from poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide-co-acrylamide)-block-poly(gamma-benzyl L-glutamate) were designed for targeted drug delivery in localized hyperthermia. The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of nanoparticles was adjusted to a level between
