Tumor targeting by surface-modified protein microspheres.
Protein microspheres have been used in the fields of biomedical imaging and drug delivery, but surface modification for cell targeting has been problematic. We have for the first time used an electrostatic adhesion approach to adhere arginine-glutamic acid-aspartic acid (RGD) containing peptides to the surface of protein microspheres for the purpose of targeting these vesicles to tumor cells. R...
متن کاملDevelopment of docetaxel nanocrystals surface modified with transferrin for tumor targeting
The purpose of this study was to develop the surface modification of docetaxel nanocrystals (DTX-NCs) with apo-Transferrin human (Tf) for improving the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of DTX. DTX-NCs were prepared by a nanoprecipitation method, and the surface modified with Tf by an adsorption method (Tf-DTX-NCs). The morphology and particle size of DTX-NCs and Tf-DTX-NCs were characterized us...
متن کاملTumor-targeting delivery of herb-based drugs with cell-penetrating/tumor-targeting peptide-modified nanocarriers
Cancer has become one of the leading causes of mortality globally. The major challenges of conventional cancer therapy are the failure of most chemotherapeutic agents to accumulate selectively in tumor cells and their severe systemic side effects. In the past three decades, a number of drug delivery approaches have been discovered to overwhelm the obstacles. Among these, nanocarriers have gaine...
متن کاملPreparation of Eudragit E100 microspheres by modified solvent evaporation method.
The objective of this investigation was to develop the hollow microspheres as a new dosage form of floating drug delivery system with prolonged stomach retention time. Hollow microspheres containing ranitidine hydrochloride were prepared by solvent evaporation method using Eudragit RLPO dissolved in a mixture of dichloromethane and ethanol. The maximum yield and drug loading amount of hollow mi...
متن کاملModified Bleomycin Disaccharides Exhibiting Improved Tumor Cell Targeting
The bleomycins (BLMs) are a family of antitumor antibiotics used clinically for anticancer chemotherapy. Their antitumor selectivity derives at least in part from their ability to target tumor cells, a property that resides in the carbohydrate moiety of the antitumor agent. In earlier studies, we have demonstrated that the tumor cell selectivity resides in the mannose carbamoyl moiety of the BL...
