Journal ArticleDOI

Accumulation of sub-100 nm polymeric micelles in poorly permeable tumours depends on size

TL;DR: It is shown that the penetration and efficacy of the larger micelles could be enhanced by using a transforming growth factor-β inhibitor to increase the permeability of the tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclic RGD-linked polymeric micelles for targeted delivery of platinum anticancer drugs to glioblastoma through the blood-brain tumor barrier

TL;DR: It is likely that the selective and accelerated accumulation of cRGD/m into tumors occurred via an active internalization pathway, possibly transcytosis, thereby producing significant antitumor effects in an orthotopic mouse model of U87MG human glioblastoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular bursts enhance permeability of tumour blood vessels and improve nanoparticle delivery.

TL;DR: It is proposed that 'dynamic vents' form transient openings and closings at these leaky blood vessels that may explain the enhanced extravasation of nanoparticles from the tumour blood vessels, and offer insights into the underlying distribution patterns of an administered drug.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improving Drug Potency and Efficacy by Nanocarrier-Mediated Subcellular Targeting

TL;DR: Tumors that have become resistant to DACHPt grow well in the presence of the drug, but the micelle-delivered version effectively inhibited the tumors’ growth, most likely by bypassing the cells’ cytoplasmic defenses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Therapeutic Vesicular Nanoreactors with Tumor‐Specific Activation and Self‐Destruction for Synergistic Tumor Ablation

TL;DR: Novel glucose oxidase (GOD)-loaded therapeutic vesicular NRs (theraNR) are constructed based on a diblockCopolymer containing poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and copolymerized phenylboronic ester or piperidine-functionalized methacrylate (P(PBEM-co-PEM).
