Stromal Modulation and Treatment of Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer with Local Intraperitoneal Triple miRNA/siRNA Nanotherapy.

TL;DR: Data is presented that a local IP delivery of a miRNA/siRNA combination holds the potential to improve pancreatic cancer therapy and shows improved therapeutic effect when compared with individual therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetically assisted intraperitoneal drug delivery for cancer chemotherapy.

TL;DR: This work proposes a new magnetically assisted strategy to elevate drug penetration into peritoneal tumor nodules and improve IP chemotherapy and shows an order of magnitude increase in the final intratumoral concentration of drug-coated MNPs with respect to free cytotoxic agents.

Tumor cells secrete a vascular permeability factor that promotes accumulation of ascites fluid.

TL;DR: Tumor ascites fluids from guinea pigs, hamsters, and mice contain activity that rapidly increases microvascular permeability, and this activity is secreted by these tumor cells and a variety of other tumor cell lines in vitro.
