Dual‐drug‐loaded liposomes enable the simultaneous delivery of hydrophilic and hydrophobic therapeutics to tumors, enhancing anticancer efficacy and overcoming multidrug resistance. Through rational formulation design and surface functionalization, these systems improve tumor targeting, modulate efflux mechanisms and EMT, and achieve synergistic ...

From Oral Candidiasis to Candidemia: A Review of Superficial to Invasive Progression
Recent and limited evidence indicates that oral candidiasis can disseminate Candida albicans throughout the body, leading to invasive candidiasis, such as candidemia, a life‐threatening infection. Considering antifungal resistance and global outbreaks of emergent non‐albicans Candida and related yeasts, murine models help understand dissemination ...
