Surface‐modified niosomes are introduced as multifunctional nanoparticles for precision tumor treatment that combine hydrophilic and lipophilic drug encapsulation with ligand‐based targeting via antibodies, peptides, transferrin, and folic acid. This modification leads to increased tumor selectivity, facilitates cell entry, and enables enhanced ...

Ferroptosis is governed by the balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐driven lipid peroxidation and a multi‐tiered antioxidant network. ROS sources include mitochondrial electron transport chain, voltage‐dependent anion channels, NADPH oxidases, and endoplasmic reticulum‐resident oxidoreductases, while antioxidant defenses span the primary GSH ...
