Osteoporosis has increasingly become a major public health concern because of its associated heightened risk of bone fragility and fractures. In order to avoid the adverse risk of hormone therapy, scientists have considered isoquercitrin (IQ) as a natural phytoestrogen to potentially prevent osteoporosis. However, IQ has poor solubility and bioavailability which culminates in rapid elimination of phytoestrogen.

We prepared a tumor microenvironment-responsive magnetic nanofluid (MNF) for improving tumor targeting, imaging and treatment simultaneously. For this purpose, we synthesized sulfonamide-based amphiphilic copolymers with a suitable p at 7.0; then, we utilized them to prepare the tumor microenvironment-responsive MNF by self-assembly of the sulfonamide-based amphiphilic copolymers and hydrophobic monodispersed FeO nanoparticles at approximately 8 nm.
