TL;DR: The results showed preferential killing of cancer cells compared to normal cells by the curcumin-loaded nanoparticles, which could be a promising candidate in cancer therapy.

••
TL;DR: DNPs have been shown to be amenable to targeting of the drug to the site of action, leading to a decreases in the dose required and a decrease in side effects, which makes them a novel polymeric drug delivery device, which fulfils the requirements for ophthalmic application.

TL;DR: The results revealed that the encapsulation of verapamil in both calcium-alginate and calcium alginate-chitosan mixed beads exceeded 80% and the drug release mechanisms were either "anomalous transport" or "case-II transport".

TL;DR: Low pH-responsive PHNPs of Fe(3)O(4) can be exploited as a cisplatin delivery vehicle for target-specific therapeutic applications, and is reported to be able to target to breast cancer SK-BR-3 cells with IC(50) reaching 2.9 muM, much lower than 6.8 muM needed for free cisPlatin.
Abstract: We report a new approach to cisplatin storage and release using porous hollow nanoparticles (PHNPs) of Fe3O4. We prepared the PHNPs by controlled oxidation of Fe NPs at 250 °C followed by acid etch...
