Scavenger receptor A-mediated nanoparticles target M1 macrophages for acute liver injury

Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2023
Acute liver injury (ALI) has an elevated fatality rate due to untimely and ineffective treatment. Although, schisandrin B (SchB) has been extensively used to treat diverse liver diseases, its therapeutic efficacy on ALI was limited due to its high ...

Hollow copper sulfide nanoparticles carrying ISRIB for the sensitized photothermal therapy of breast cancer and brain metastases through inhibiting stress granule formation and reprogramming tumor‐associated macrophages

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
As known, the benefits of photothermal therapy (PTT) are greatly limited by the heat tolerance of cancer cells resulting from overexpressed heat shock proteins (HSPs). Then HSPs further trigger the formation of stress granules (SGs) that regulate protein

Drug targeting

European Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2000
The main problems currently associated with systemic drug administration are: even biodistribution of pharmaceuticals throughout the body; the lack of drug specific affinity toward a pathological site; the necessity of a large total dose of a drug to achieve high local concentration; non-specific toxicity and other adverse side-effects due to high drug
