Article Synopsis
  • - * Researchers created nanoparticles called CPT-NP using poly(DL-lactic acid) and a specific copolymer, loading them with the cancer drug camptothecin (CPT) to study their behavior in a saline solution and in tumor-bearing mice.
  • - * The nanoparticles maintained a consistent size and released about 20% of the drug quickly, followed by a much slower release rate after that initial burst.
  • - * Compared to regular CPT solution, CPT-NP showed improved drug accumulation in tissues and better targeting of tumors, which enhances the effectiveness of the treatment.
