    • Modeling of the In Vitro Release Kinetics of Sonosensitive Targeted Liposomes 

      Almajed, Zeyad Mohamed; Salkho, Najla; Sulieman, Hana; Husseini, Ghaleb (MDPI, 2022-12-05)
      Targeted liposomes triggered by ultrasound are a promising drug delivery system as they potentially improve the clinical outcomes of chemotherapy while reducing associated side effects. In this work, a comprehensive model ...

    • Redox-Responsive Drug Delivery Systems: A Chemical Perspective 

      Abed, Heba; Abuwatfa, Waad Hussein; Husseini, Ghaleb (MDPI, 2022)
      With the widespread global impact of cancer on humans and the extensive side effects associated with current cancer treatments, a novel, effective, and safe treatment is needed. Redoxresponsive drug delivery systems (DDSs) ...

    • Review on Triggered Liposomal Drug Delivery with a Focus on Ultrasound 

      Moussa, Hesham Gamal; Martins, Ana M.; Husseini, Ghaleb (Bentham Science Publishers, 2015)
      Chemotherapy is widely used for cancer treatment; however, it causes unwanted side effects in patients. To avoid these adverse effects, nanocarriers have been developed, which can be loaded with the chemotherapeutic agents, ...

    • The use of ultrasound to release chemotherapeutic drugs from micelles and liposomes 

      Ahmed, Salma E.; Martins, Ana M.; Husseini, Ghaleb (Taylor & Francis, 2014)
      Several drug delivery systems have been investigated to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy by encapsulating the therapeutic agent in a nanosized carrier until it reaches the tumor site. Many of these particles are ...
