Cancer therapies that exploit targeting ligands to deliver attached cytotoxic drugs selectively
to malignant cells are currently receiving significant attention. While antibody-targeted drugs …

Currently used pharmaceutical nanocarriers, such as liposomes, micelles, and polymeric
nanoparticles, demonstrate a broad variety of useful properties, such as longevity in the …

Gold nanorods (NRs) have plasmon‐resonant absorption and scattering in the near‐infrared
(NIR) region, making them attractive probes for in vitro and in vivo imaging. In the cellular …

Cancer is a killer disease second only to heart problems. 1 Though there is significant
progress in the field of anticancer technology, we are still badly in need of a reliable cure for …

We developed a new strategy to prepare folate-decorated nanoparticles of biodegradable
polymers for Quantum dots (QDs) formulation for targeted and sustained imaging for cancer …

Recent work has suggested that nanoparticles in the form of dendrimers may be a keystone
in the future of therapeutics. The field of oncology could soon be revolutionized by novel …

What is the contribution of dendrimers to the field of nanomedicine? Rather than disclosing
an exhaustive catalogue of their possible applications, this review article sets a putative …

A heavy-metal-free luminescent quantum dot (QD) based on doped zinc sulfide (ZnS),
conjugated with a cancer-targeting ligand, folic acid (FA), is presented as a promising bio …

The present invention provides improved oligomeric com pound, in particular
oligonucleotide compounds, and meth ods for modulating the expression of the Bcl-2 gene …

Background: Biotin is an essential micronutrient and its levels are high in rapidly
proliferating cells such as cancer cells. We hypothesized that the synthesis of poly (amido) …
