Antibody-Conjugated Nanoparticles of Biodegradable Polymers for Targeted Drug Delivery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Target-specific delivery of diagnostic and/or therapeutic agents has become a main concern in the research of nanomedicine and in the pharmaceutical industry. Formulation of targeting effects can deliver high dose of the formulated diagnostic/therapeutic agents specifically to the diseased cells and leave the healthy cells untouched, which can thus result in much higher diagnostic/therapeutic effects and much less side effects. Fatal diseases such as cancer can thus be cured at their earliest stage. Among various targeting strategies, antibody conjugation may be most promising with high reaction response. In this chapter, we present a proof-of-concept

Formulation of temozolomide by folic acid-conjugated tri-block copolymer nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery
Introduction: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent primary malignant tumor of the brain. But, the treatment of GBM is one of the most problems in cancer therapy because of poor drug penetration across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Targeting drug delivery system and conjugating targeting moieties was recognized to overcome the poor penetration of chemotherapy drug...

متن کاملRedox-sensitive polymeric nanoparticles for drug delivery.
Bioresponsive polymeric nanoparticles have been extensively pursued for the development of tumor-targeted drug delivery. A novel redox-sensitive biodegradable polymer with "trimethyl-locked" benzoquinone was synthesized for the preparation of paclitaxel-incorporated nanoparticles. The synthesized redox-sensitive nanoparticles released paclitaxel in response to chemically triggered reduction.
