Slippery Nanoparticles as a Diffusion Platform for Mucin Producing Gastrointestinal Tumors
2019
Background
Treatment failure in pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is partly attributed to the ineffective delivery of therapeutics through dense mucinous tumor barriers. We modified the surface of Poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)-b-polyethylene glycol (PLGA-PEG-NPs) with a low-density, second PEG layer (PLGA-TPEG-NPs-20) to reduce their binding affinity to proteins and improve diffusion through mucin.
