Polymer-Based Prodrugs for Cancer Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy has achieved great success in cancer treatment during recent past decades, but it is still challenged by poor solubility, low tumor selectivity, and associated toxicity of most anticancer drugs. The prodrug strategy is one of the most commonly used chemical/biochemical strategies towards improving the therapeutic index of anticancer drugs. A prodrug is defined as a chemically modif...
متن کاملModified Polyethylenimine: Self Assemble Nanoparticle Forming Polymer for pDNA Delivery
Objective Polyethylenimine (PEI), a readily available synthetic polycation which has high transfection efficiency owing to its buffering capacity was introduced for transfection a few years ago. But it has been reported that PEI is cytotoxic in many cell lines. In this study, in order to enhance the transfection efficiency of 10 kDa PEI and reduce its toxicity, hydrophobic residues were grafte...
متن کاملSilver nanoparticle polymer composite based humidity sensor.
Silver nanoparticles were synthesised by a chemical reduction process in order to produce an aqueous colloidal dispersion. The resulting colloids were then characterised by a combination of UV-Vis spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy and the nanoparticles were found to have an average diameter of 20-22 nm. The Ag/polymer nanocomposites w...
متن کاملChemotherapy of Gastrointestinal Malignancies.
Beginning with esophageal cancer of both the adeno and squamous variety, it would appear that combined modality therapy is here to stay. Most cancer programs now advocate chemotherapy, usually cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil together with radiation therapy, prior to definitive esophagectomy for localized disease. An exciting advance is the discovery of the activity of paclitaxel in this setting, a...
متن کاملDoxorubicin/Ce6-Loaded Nanoparticle Coated with Polymer via Singlet Oxygen-Sensitive Linker for Photodynamically Assisted Chemotherapy
It is widely known that the therapeutic effect of nanoparticle-based chemotherapeutics could be greatly enhanced by the introduction of the photodynamic effect. Herein we report a chlorin e6-incorporated mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) covered with a polyethylene glycol shell conjugated via a singlet oxygen-sensitive labile bis(alkylthio)alkene linker (CeAP-L-PEG). In this study, single ...
