One way is through a passive targeting mechanism called the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Compared to normal tissues, solid tumors have leaky vasculature, so small nanoparticles ...

It is, therefore, possible to hypothesize that an epithelial EPR effect exists in patients ... Aside from the role of nanoparticles in the local accumulation of drug load, drug penetration into ...

An increasing number of studies are, therefore, focusing on the design of anti-tumor nanoparticles to target tumor endothelial cells and noncellular blood components. Surface chemistry is another ...

The breath samples were analyzed using sensors based on organically functionalized gold nanoparticles, combined with support vector machine analysis. Sensitivity and specificity with reference to ...
