Truncated Hepatitis B virus like nanoparticles: A novel drug delivery platform for cancer therapy
Nowadays, Nano-sized drug delivery systems have been studied extensively for theirpotential in cancer therapy. Various drug nanocarriers are being developed including liposomes, micelles, and Virus like nanoparticles (VLNPs). VLNPs offer many advantages for developing smart drug delivery systems due to their precise and repeated structures and relatively large cargo capacities. Truncated ...
متن کاملSynthesis of new biodegradable nanocarriers for SN38 delivery and synergistic phototherapy
Objective (s): SN38 is the prominent and effective anticancer drug for treating various types of human cancers such as colorectal, ovarian and lung cancers. SN38 is highly toxic, and due to its poor solubility in aqueous media, and low stability and hydrolysis at physiological pH, it has not been used as an anti-cancer drug. To overcome these problems, SN38 was conjugated with new nanocarriers ...
متن کاملLipid based nanovectors containing ruthenium complexes: a potential route in cancer therapy.
Ruthenium complexes offer new perspectives in cancer therapy; towards this aim we have synthesized a new amphiphilic unimer able to coordinate ruthenium complexes and to form liposomes.
متن کاملDesign and bioinformatics analysis of novel biomimetic peptides as nanocarriers for gene transfer
Objective(s): The introduction of nucleic acids into cells for therapeutic objectives is significantly hindered by the size and charge of these molecules and therefore requires efficient vectors that assist cellular uptake. For several years great efforts have been devoted to the study of development of recombinant vectors based on biological domains with potential applications in gene therapy....
متن کاملPreparation, in-vitro characterization and pharmacokinetic evaluation of Brij decorated doxorubicin liposomes as a potential nanocarrier for cancer therapy
The aim of current study was to investigate the effect of Brij decoration of liposomes on in vitro and in vivo characteristics of the nanocarriers. Two hydrophilic Brij surfactants (Brij 35 and Brij 78) with almost similar molecular weight but differing in acyl chain were incorporated into liposomal bilayers at two percentages (5% and 10%). Conventional liposomes (CL) containing egg phosphatidy...
