There is currently considerable effort to incorporate both diagnostic and therapeutic
functions into a single nanoscale system for the more effective treatment of cancer …

Cancer nanomedicines approved so far minimize toxicity, but their efficacy is often limited by
physiological barriers posed by the tumour microenvironment. Here, we discuss how these …

Overcoming multidrug resistance is achieved by develo** a novel drugdelivery-system
paradigm based on azobenzene liposome and phosphatidylcholine-modified upconversion …

Here we systematically examined the effect of nanoparticle size (10− 100 nm) and surface
chemistry (ie, poly (ethylene glycol)) on passive targeting of tumors in vivo. We found that the …
