The tumor microenvironment provides multiple cues that may be exploited to improve the
efficacy of established chemotherapeutics; furthermore, polypeptides are uniquely situated …

Liposomes are well-established nanocarriers for improving the therapeutic index of
anticancer agents. A remarkable understanding in the pathophysiology of breast cancer …

It has been demonstrated that tumoral cells have a higher uptake of ascorbic acid compared
to normal cells. This differential characteristic can be used as a way to improve the specificity …

Since violacein—an antibiotic, antiviral, and antiparasitic compound—exhibits poor solubility
in water, polymeric poly-(d, l-lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles containing this compound …

The excellent physical and chemical properties of porous carbon materials allow them to be
widely used in many fields. Their performance in a specific application is usually determined …

ALA administration has been used to induce the endogenous photosensitiser
Protoporphyrin IX for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of tumours. However, the hydrophilic …

Tumoral cells are known to have a higher ascorbic acid uptake than normal cells. Therefore,
the aim of this study was to obtain polymeric nanoparticles containing the antitumoral …

In the midst of a plethora of nanomaterial-based drug delivery platforms, liposomes have
been predominantly successful with several products conceded into clinical applications …

There has been an explosion of progress in the development of novel nanotechnology-
based platforms for a variety of applications. One reason for this development is that the …

The efficiency of drug delivery is crucial in cancer treatment [1]. Because of the high toxicity
of chemotherapeutic agents, delivery of the drugs to sites other than the tumor provokes …
