Tissue-specific gene delivery via nanoparticle coating.
The use of biomaterials for gene delivery can potentially avoid many of the safety concerns with viral gene delivery. However, the efficacy of polymeric gene delivery methods is low, particularly in vivo. One significant concern is that the interior and exterior composition of polymeric gene delivery nanoparticles are often coupled, with a single polymer backbone governing all functions from bi...
متن کاملHyperthermia enables tumor-specific nanoparticle delivery: effect of particle size.
The efficacy of novel cancer therapeutics has been hampered by the ability to deliver these agents to the tumor at effective concentrations. Liposomes have been used as a method to overcome some delivery issues and, in combination with hyperthermia, have been shown to increase drug delivery to tumors. Particle size has been shown to affect the delivery of liposomes, but it is not known how hype...

متن کاملBiodegradable Polyphosphazene Biomaterials for Tissue Engineering and Delivery of Therapeutics
Degradable biomaterials continue to play a major role in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine as well as for delivering therapeutic agents. Although the chemistry of polyphosphazenes has been studied extensively, a systematic review of their applications for a wide range of biomedical applications is lacking. Polyphosphazenes are synthesized through a relatively well-known two-step reac...
متن کاملMultistage nanoparticle delivery system for deep penetration into tumor tissue.
Current Food and Drug Administration-approved cancer nanotherapeutics, which passively accumulate around leaky regions of the tumor vasculature because of an enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect, have provided only modest survival benefits. This suboptimal outcome is likely due to physiological barriers that hinder delivery of the nanotherapeutics throughout the tumor. Many of these n...
