High drug resistance remains a challenge for chemotherapy against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Combining chemotherapeutic agents with microRNA (miRNA), which simultaneously regulates multiple pathways, offers a promising approach to improve therapeutic efficacy against HCC. Although cationic amphiphilic copolymers have been used to co-deliver these agents, their effectiveness is often limited by low co-encapsulation efficiency and inherent cationic toxicity.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in regulating various physiological processes. To gain a comprehensive understanding of their distinct functions in different physiological events, it is imperative to detect binary ROS simultaneously. However, the development of the sensing method capable of binary ROS detection remains a significant challenge.

Targeting is the most challenging problem to solve for drug delivery systems. Despite the use of targeting units such as antibodies, peptides and proteins to increase their penetration in tumors the amount of therapeutics that reach the target is very small, even with the use of nanoparticles (NPs). Nature has solved the selectivity problem using a combination of proteins and lipids that are exposed on the cell membranes and are able to recognize specific tissues as demonstrated by cancer metastasis.

Liposomal nanocarriers are able to carry peptides for efficient and selective delivery of radioactive tracer and drugs into the tumors. Angiopoietin 2 (ANGPT2) is an excellent biomarker for precise diagnosis and therapy of glioma. The present study aimed to design ANGPT2-specific peptides to modify the surface of nanoliposomes containing doxorubicin (Dox) for integrative imaging and targeting therapy of glioma.

The vascular endothelial growth factor receptor is essential for the angiogenesis of cancer. Tumor propagation was effectively suppressed by inhibiting VEGFR-2 activity. As a result, the target quinoxaline-pyrazole hybrids were created in a way that closely resembled the structural characteristics of VEGFR-2 inhibitors.
