Dual ligands modified double targeted nano-system for liver targeted gene delivery

Liver Targeted Drug Delivery System

Targeted drug delivery or site-specific drug delivery system has the potential to increase local drug concentrations and thereby increase the effectiveness of the medicines with fewer side effects. Liver diseases especially liver cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers, with a high mortality. Due to high toxicity and poor specificity of the chemotherapeutic agents the present method of trea...

SRL-coated PAMAM dendrimer nano-carrier for targeted gene delivery to the glioma cells and competitive inhibition by lactoferrin

Glioma, as a primary tumor of central nervous system, is the main cause of death in patients with brain cancer. Therefore, development of an efficient strategy for treatment of glioma is worthy. The aim of the current study was to develop a SRL peptide-coated dendrimer as a novel dual gene delivery system for targeting the LRP receptor, an up-regulated gene in both BBB and glioma cells. To perf...
