Nanoparticle delivery of chemosensitizers improve chemotherapy efficacy without incurring additional toxicity.
Chemosensitizers can improve the therapeutic index of chemotherapy and overcome treatment resistance. Successful translation of chemosensitizers depends on the development of strategies that can preferentially deliver chemosensitizers to tumors while avoiding normal tissue. We hypothesized that nanoparticle (NP) formulation of chemosensitizers can improve their delivery to tumors which can in t...
متن کاملTyrphostin 4-nitrobenzylidene malononitrile reduces chemotherapy toxicity without impairing efficacy.
In mice, 4-nitrobenzylidene malononitrile (AG1714), which belongs to the tyrphostin family, reduced toxicity induced by doxorubicin and cisplatin without impairing their antitumor efficacy. AG1714 reduced mortality induced by doxorubicin and cisplatin. It prevented, in a dose-dependent manner, cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity as assessed by measurement of serum creatinine and blood urea nitroge...
متن کاملNanoparticle-based drug delivery to improve the efficacy of antiretroviral therapy in the central nervous system
Antiretroviral drug therapy plays a cornerstone role in the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome patients. Despite obvious advances over the past 3 decades, new approaches toward improved management of infected individuals are still required. Drug distribution to the central nervous system (CNS) is required in order to limit and control viral infect...
متن کاملChemotherapy Induces Oral Mucositis in Mice Without Additional Noxious Stimuli1
Oral mucositis (OM) is a serious side effect of cancer chemotherapy. The pathobiology of oral mucositis remains incompletely understood due to lack of appropriate models which recapitulate the human condition. Existing rodent models are intraperitoneal and require radiation, chemical or mechanical injury to the chemotherapy protocol to induce oral lesions. We aimed to develop an OM mouse model ...
متن کاملAssessing nanoparticle toxicity.
Nanoparticle toxicology, an emergent field, works toward establishing the hazard of nanoparticles, and therefore their potential risk, in light of the increased use and likelihood of exposure. Analytical chemists can provide an essential tool kit for the advancement of this field by exploiting expertise in sample complexity and preparation as well as method and technology development. Herein, w...
