    • Immunoliposomes: Synthesis, Structure, and Their Potential as Drug Delivery Carriers 

      Sandeep, Divya; AlSawaftah, Nour Majdi; Husseini, Ghaleb (Bentham Science, 2020)
      Immunoliposomes have emerged as attractive drug targeting vehicles for cancer treatment. This review presents the recent advances in the design of immunoliposomes encapsulating a variety of chemotherapeutic agents. We ...

    • Liposomes for the Treatment of Brain Cancer — A Review 

      Raju, Richu; Abuwatfa, Waad Hussein; Pitt, William G.; Husseini, Ghaleb (MDPI, 2023-06-25)
      Due to their biocompatibility, non-toxicity, and surface-conjugation capabilities, liposomes are effective nanocarriers that can encapsulate chemotherapeutic drugs and facilitate targeted delivery across the blood–brain ...

    • Over-Pressure Suppresses Ultrasonic-Induced Drug Uptake 

      Stringham, S. Briant; Viskovska, Maria A.; Richardson, Eric S.; Ohmine, Seiga; Husseini, Ghaleb; Murray, Byron K.; Pitt, William G. (Elseviser, 2008)
      Ultrasound (US) is used to enhance and target delivery of drugs and genes to cancer tissues. The present study further examines the role of acoustic cavitation in US-induced permeabilization of cell membranes and subsequent ...

    • Transferrin-Targeted Liposomes in Glioblastoma Therapy: A Review 

      Kawak, Paul S.; AlSawaftah, Nour Majdi; Pitt, William G.; Husseini, Ghaleb (MDPI, 2026-08-26)
      Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain tumor, and its treatment is further complicated by the high selectivity of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). The scientific community is urgently seeking innovative and effective ...
