Biodegradable nanoparticles enable simultaneous delivery of two drugs to attack tumors
Talazoparib increased PD-L1 expression levels and P-selectin expression evaluation in human and mouse melanomas and BRCA-mutant mouse BC. Credit: Science Advances (2024). DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adr4762 Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a new platform that uses polymer nanoparticles to deliver drug pairs to specific types of cancer, such as skin cancer and breast cancer. The researchers explain that having both…

New nanocatalyst targets tumors without oxygen
Structure and biological mechanism of action of NP4 on tumor-targeted glutathione (GSH) oxidation catalyst in hypoxic osteosarcoma tumors. Credit: Nature Communications (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-53646-y Tumors often contain areas of oxygen-deficient tissue that do not tolerate conventional treatments. This is because drugs applied to tumors require oxygen to be effective. An international research team has developed a new mechanism of action…
