Drug-Loaded Polymeric Nanoparticles for Cancer Stem Cell Targeting
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been reported to play critical roles in tumor initiation, propagation, and regeneration of cancer. Nano-size vehicles are employed to deliver drugs to target the CSCs for cancer therapy. Polymeric nanoparticles have been considered as the most efficient vehicles for drug delivery due to their excellent pharmacokinetic properties. The CSCs specific antibodies or lig...
متن کاملMMP-Responsive, Proximity-activated Targeting Polymeric Nanoparticles for siRNA Delivery
SUMMARY A smart polymeric nanoparticle (SPN) with matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) dependent proximityactivated targeting (PAT) has been designed and tested for targeted intracellular siRNA delivery to MMP-7 overexpressing tissues (i.e., tumor metastases). With this novel PAT-SPN design, a removable PEG corona mitigates cytotoxicity and nonspecific uptake in normal tissues. Exposure to MMP (i...
متن کاملBiodegradable Polymeric Nanoparticles-Based Vaccine Adjuvants for Lymph Nodes Targeting
Vaccines have successfully eradicated a large number of diseases. However, some infectious diseases (such as HIV, Chlamydia trachomatis or Bacillus anthracis) keep spreading since there is no vaccine to prevent them. One way to overcome this issue is the development of new adjuvant formulations which are able to induce the appropriate immune response without sacrificing safety. Lymph nodes are ...
متن کاملSmart Polymeric Nanoparticles for Cancer Gene Delivery
The massive amount of human genetic information already available has accelerated the identification of target genes, making gene and nucleic acid therapy the next generation of medicine. Nanoparticle (NP)-based anticancer gene therapy treatment has received significant interest in this evolving field. Recent advances in vector technology have improved gene transfection efficiencies of nonviral...
متن کاملNatural and herbal compounds targeting breast cancer, a review based on cancer stem cells
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are known as the major reason for therapy resistance. Recently, natural herbal compounds are suggested to have a significant role in inhibiting the breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs). The aim of this study was to explore the effective natural herbal compounds against BCSCs.This review article was designed based on the BCSCs, mechanisms of therapy resistance and natural he...
