We designed and synthesized a new delivery system for the anticancer drug doxorubicin
based on a biocompatible hydrophilic poly (2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)(PEtOx) carrier with linear …

Although folate exhibits many advantages over other targeting ligands, it has one major
defect: poor water solubility. Once it was conjugated to hydrophilic drug carrier such as N-(2 …

Various different passively and actively targeted nanomedicines have been designed and
evaluated over the years, in particular for the treatment of cancer. Reasoning that the …

Nanomedicine is, generally, the application of nanotechnology to medicine. The term
