1. Chitosan nanoparticles functionalised with protocatechuic acid improve colon-targeted pazopanib delivery with multi-pathway therapeutic regulation and pharmacokinetic optimisation in colorectal cancer
Maheshwari T, Bhattacharya S
Poor pharmacokinetics, insufficient tumor-selective drug accumulation, and systemic toxicity are often the main obstacles to colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. Here, protocatechuic acid-functionalized chitosan nanoparticles (PAZ-CS-PCA-NPs) were designed to enhance the pharmacological efficacy of pazopanib via…
