Analysis of nanoparticle delivery to tumours

TL;DR: This Perspective explores and explains the fundamental dogma of nanoparticle delivery to tumours and answers two central questions: ‘ how many nanoparticles accumulate in a tumour?’ and ‘how does this number affect the clinical translation of nanomedicines?'

Drug targeting to tumors: Principles, pitfalls and (pre-) clinical progress

TL;DR: Intentions strongly suggest that besides making ever more nanomedicine formulations, future efforts should also address some of the conceptual drawbacks of drug targeting to tumors, and that strategies should be developed to overcome these shortcomings.

Correction: Corrigendum: Ligand modified nanoparticles increases cell uptake, alters endocytosis and elevates glioma distribution and internalization

TL;DR: It was shown that the nanoparticels modification with the IL-13 peptide could improve glioma treatment by selectively increasing cellular uptake, facilitating cell internalization, altering the uptake pathway and increasingglioma localization.

The Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Generates Cells with Properties of Stem Cells

TL;DR: It is reported that the induction of an EMT in immortalized human mammary epithelial cells (HMLEs) results in the acquisition of mesenchymal traits and in the expression of stem-cell markers, and it is shown that those cells have an increased ability to form mammospheres, a property associated with mammARY epithelial stem cells.
