Optimised three-dimensional in vitro retinoblastoma models tailored for drug discovery and clinical translatability

Retinoblastoma, while relatively rare, stands as the most prevalent intraocular cancer. In Switzerland, the survival rate approaches 100%, but it drops to less than 50% in low-income countries. The current treatment options for retinoblastoma rely on a lim ...

Computational characterisation of the selectivity and binding mode of mono- and binuclear transition metal based anticancer compounds

Thibaud Edouard Alistair von Erlach

The rising resistance and the severe side effects associated with classical anticancer drugs such as cisplatin or mercaptopurines has triggered the development of novel antitumourous agents based on transition metal (e.g. ruthenium, osmium, and gold) organ ...

Stepwise growth of gold coated cancer targeting carbon nanotubes for the precise delivery of doxorubicin combined with photothermal therapy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei

Combining doxorubicin with thermal therapy in the clinic has led to startling results in the treatment of problematic cancers. Here, we describe a multimo dal multi-walled carbon nanotube material that combines tumor targeting, doxorubicin delivery, and ph ...

Angiostatic treatment prior to chemo- or photodynamic therapy improves anti-tumor efficacy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Débora Bonvin, Edoardo Scherrer

Tumor vasculature is known to be poorly organized leading to increased leakage of molecules to the extravascular space. This process can potentially increase interstitial fluid pressure impairing intra-tumoral blood flow and oxygen supply, and can affect d ...

Photodynamic induced uptake of liposomal doxorubicin to rat lung tumors parallels tumor vascular density

Hubert van den Bergh, Elodie Debefve, Laurent Décosterd

Visudyne®-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) at low drug/light conditions has shown to selectively enhance the uptake of liposomal doxorubicin in subpleural localized sarcoma tumors grown on rodent lungs without causing morphological alterations of the lu ...

Insights into Intrastrand Cross-Link Lesions of DNA from QM/MM Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Ursula Röthlisberger, Chandan Patel

DNA damages induced by oxidative intrastrand cross-links have been the subject of intense research during the past decade. Yet, the currently available experimental protocols used to isolate such lesions only allow to get structural information about linke ...

Photodynamic therapy enhances liposomal doxorubicin distribution in tumors during isolated perfusion of rodent lungs

Hubert van den Bergh, Elodie Debefve, Yi Wang

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) at low drug-light conditions can enhance the transport of intravenously injected macromolecular therapeutics through the tumor vasculature. Here we determined the impact of PDT on the distribution of liposomal doxorub ...

Distribution of free and liposomal doxorubicin after isolated lung perfusion in a sarcoma model

Background. Isolated lung perfusion (ILP) with free and a novel liposomal-encapsulated doxorubicin (Liporubicin, CT Sciences SA, Lausanne, Switzerland) was compared with respect to drug uptake and distribution in rat lungs bearing a sarcomatous tumor. ...

Development of a novel drug delivery system based on polymeric, thermoresponsive, hydrogel nanoparticles

Carrier-mediated drug delivery has emerged as a powerful methodology for the treatment of various pathologies. The therapeutic index of traditional and novel drugs is enhanced via the increase of specificity due to targeting of drugs to a particular tissue ...
