the present study , was an attempt to develop galactosylated albumin nanoparticles of simvastatin for treatment of hypercholesterolemia. by developing the galactosylated nanoparticulated delivery the required action of drug at the target site at liver can be provided. the advantage of targeting helps to reduce the systemic side effects which may be occur due to the distribution of the drug to t...

Receptors and proteins are overexpressed in many human cancer cell membranes rather than normal tissues and are considered as the main molecular targets. Specific tumor- targeting molecules which have high affinity for these receptors can be valuable tools as carrier molecules for targeted cancer therapy and imaging. Pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of diagnostic and therapeutic agents are ...

Tumor angiogenesis is crucial for the progression and metastasis of cancer. The vasculature of tumor tissue is different from normal vasculature. Therefore, tumor vascular targeting therapy could represent an effective therapeutic strategy with which to suppress both primary tumor growth and tumor metastasis. The use of viral vectors for tumor vascular targeting therapy is a promising strategy ...
