The widespread application of gallium (Ga) in cancer therapy has been greatly hampered by lack of specificity resulting in poor tumor accumulation and retention. To address the challenge, two lipophilic gallium (III) compounds (gallium hexanedione; GaH and gallium acetylacetonate; GaAcAc) were
The release rate of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) from lipid-coated nanoparticles (LNPs) was determined to develop a respirable delivery system for use as adjuvant (postsurgery) therapy for lung cancer. LNPs were prepared by spray drying, and the in vitro release was measured by microdialysis. The
The widespread clinical success with most gallium compounds in cancer therapy is markedly hampered by lack of tumor specific accumulation, poor tumor permeability and undesirable toxicity to healthy tissues. The aim of this work was to investigate for the first time antitumor mechanism of a new
