Evaluation of nanoscaled dual targeting drug-loaded liposomes on inhibiting vasculogenic mimicry channels of brain glioma.

Brain glioma is the most common primary tumour of the central nervous system. Complete surgical removal of the brain glioma is virtually impossible. Chemotherapy is still an important treatment for brain glioma.

Inhibiting tumour metastasis by DQA modified paclitaxel plus ligustrazine micelles in treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer.

Lung cancer is a kind of malignant tumour characterized as uncontrolled cell growth in lung. These malignant cell growth can spread beyond the lung by process of metastasis into other tissues or parts of the body. In this study, we developed dequalinium (DQA) modified paclitaxel plus ligustrazine micelles to destroy vasculogenic mimicry (VM) channels and inhibit tumour metastasis.
