Inner core segment design for drug delivery control of thermo-responsive polymeric micelles

TL;DR: Structural deformations produced by outer shell polymer structural change with temperature cycles through the LCST are proposed for the PBMA core possessing a lower T(g) than the outer shell PIPAAm LCST, while the PSt core retained its structure, regardless of outer shell changes.
Journal Article

Characterization and Anticancer Activity of the Micelle-forming Polymeric Anticancer Drug Adriamycin-conjugated Poly(ethylene glycol)-Poly(aspartic acid) Block Copolymer

TL;DR: In vivo high anticancer activity of this micelle-forming polymeric drug against P 388 mouse leukemia was obtained with less body weight loss than that seen with freeADR, due to low toxicity as compared with free ADR, and increased stability of the bound Adriamycin molecules in phosphate-buffered saline.
Journal Article

Toxicity and antitumor activity against solid tumors of micelle-forming polymeric anticancer drug and its extremely long circulation in blood.

TL;DR: PEG-P[Asp(ADR)] expressed critical suppression of tumor growth and considerably prolonged life span of the treated mice and the stabilized circulation of ADR residue in blood by binding to the block copolymer was considered to result from the micellar structure which possesses the hydrated outer shell composed of the poly(ethylene glycol) chains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly cited research articles in Journal of Controlled Release: Commentaries and perspectives by authors

TL;DR: A compilation of commentaries gives a historical perspective and current status of research covered in some of the most cited research articles in the history of the Journal of Controlled Release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility, Safety, and Therapeutic Efficacy of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocyte Sheets in a Porcine Ischemic Cardiomyopathy Model

TL;DR: This newly developed culture system and the hiPS-CM sheets may provide a basis for the clinical use of hiPS cells in cardiac regeneration therapy and improve cardiac function after ischemic cardiomyopathy.
