Exogenous Contrast Agents in Photoacoustic Imaging: An In Vivo Review for Tumor Imaging
(MDPI, 2022)
The field of cancer theranostics has grown rapidly in the past decade and innovative ‘biosmart’ theranostic materials are being synthesized and studied to combat the fast growth of cancer metastases. While current ...
pH-Responsive Nanocarriers in Cancer Therapy
(MDPI, 2022)
A number of promising nano-sized particles (nanoparticles) have been developed to conquer the limitations of conventional chemotherapy. One of the most promising methods is stimuli-responsive nanoparticles because they ...
Microwave Imaging for Early Breast Cancer Detection: Current State, Challenges, and Future Directions
(MDPI, 2022)
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer type and is the leading cause of cancer-related death among females worldwide. Breast screening and early detection are currently the most successful approaches for the ...
Ultrasound-sensitive cRGD-modified liposomes as a novel drug delivery system
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Targeted liposomes enable the delivery of encapsulated chemotherapeutics to tumours by targeting specific receptors overexpressed on the surfaces of cancer cells; this helps in reducing the systemic side effects associated ...
Hybrid Liposome/Metal–Organic Framework as a Promising Dual-Responsive Nanocarriers for Anticancer Drug Delivery
(Elsevier, 2022)
In this work, liposome-coated iron (III) benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (Fe-BTC) metal–organic framework is examined as a promising pH/Ultrasound dual-responsive nanocarriers for doxorubicin (DOX) delivery. The successful ...
The Kinetics of Calcein Release from Mixed Targeted Liposomes Using Ultrasound
(American Scientific Publishers, 2022)
Site-specific delivery of chemotherapeutics using actively targeted-stimuli-responsive liposomes is a promising approach to enhance the therapeutic efficiency of anti-cancer drugs while reducing the associated undesirable ...
Effect of High-Frequency Ultrasound on Targeted Liposomes
(American Scientific Publishers, 2022)
Delivering highly toxic drugs inside a safe carrier to tumors while achieving a controlled and effective drug release at the targeted sites represents an attractive approach to enhance drug efficiency while reducing its ...
In Vitro Evaluation of Ultrasound Effectiveness in Controlling Doxorubicin Release from Albumin-Conjugated Liposomes
(American Scientific Publishers, 2022)
Functionalized liposomes are among the most promising antineoplastic agents delivery vehicles. Contemporaneous to their accretion at the tumor site, they need to be potentiated to release their cargo using a suitable ...
A Review on Membrane Biofouling: Prediction, Characterization, and Mitigation
(MDPI, 2022-12-15)
Water scarcity is an increasing problem on every continent, which instigated the search for novel ways to provide clean water suitable for human use; one such way is desalination. Desalination refers to the process of ...
