Abstract:The limitations of conventional treatment modalities for cancer, particularly breast cancer, have promoted the need to develop safer drug delivery systems (DDS). Chemotherapy combined with gas therapy has emerged as an attractive cancer treatment strategy. In this study, curcumin (Cur) loaded amorphous calcium carbonate nanoparticles (Cur-CaCO3) were prepared by gas diffusion reaction. A "one-step" ethanol injection method was then used to prepare lipid-coated calcium carbonate nanoparticles (Cur-CaCO3@LA-Lip)… Show more
