Journal ArticleDOI

Intratumoral immunotherapy using platelet-cloaked nanoparticles enhances antitumor immunity in solid tumors

TL;DR: Treatment of an aggressive breast cancer model with intratumoral PNP-R848 delays tumor growth and inhibits lung metastasis and highlights the promise of locally delivering immunostimulatory payloads using biomimetic nanocarriers, which possess advantages such as enhanced biocompatibility and natural targeting affinities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Erythrocyte-derived photo-theranostic agents: hybrid nano-vesicles containing indocyanine green for near infrared imaging and therapeutic applications

TL;DR: This work demonstrates the first successful engineering of hybrid nano-scale constructs derived from membranes of hemoglobin-depleted erythrocytes that encapsulate the near infrared chromophore, indocyanine green and shows the utility of the constructs as photo-theranostic agents in fluorescence imaging and photothermal destruction of human cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coatings of polyethylene glycol for suppressing adhesion between solid microspheres and flat surfaces.

TL;DR: The development and the examination of surface coatings that suppress the adhesion between glass surfaces and polymer microspheres suggest that such surfactant additives tend to be redundant and that covalently grafted coatings of PEGs with selected chain lengths provide sufficient suppression of nonspecific interfacial interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functionalized polymeric nanoparticles loaded with indocyanine green as theranostic materials for targeted molecular near infrared fluorescence imaging and photothermal destruction of ovarian cancer cells.

TL;DR: This study investigates the effectiveness of a nano‐structured system for combined near infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging of human epidermal growth factor receptor‐2 (HER2) over‐expression, as a biomarker of ovarian cancer cells, and photothermal destruction of these cells in vitro.
