Temperature Responsive Nanogels for the Encapsulation and Targeted Delivery of Nitroimidazole Derivatized Molecule for Therapeutic and Diagnostic Treatment of Hypoxic Liver Cancer
comments
Nanogels have received huge attention in the past decade due to their non-toxic properties and the ability to encapsulate small molecules for drug delivery that enhance the therapeutic potency of the drugs 1 ...
Recent efforts from the scientific community have focused on the development of in vitro systems that recapitulate key components of the complex architecture of tissues and organ functions, showing tremendous potential for disease modelling as well as drug development and discovery...
Tissue cells are known to respond to the stiffness of their substrate, however the mechanism by which they sense substrate stiffness is not well understood...
While injectable hydrogels have several advantages in the context of experimental medicine and tissue engineering, their relatively weak mechanical properties and isotropic network structure often limit their practical applications or translation to clinical use...
