Multifunctional targeting micelle nanocarriers with both imaging and therapeutic potential for bladder cancer. [PDF]
BackgroundWe previously developed a bladder cancer-specific ligand (PLZ4) that can specifically bind to both human and dog bladder cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. We have also developed a micelle nanocarrier drug-delivery system.
