Interpreting the Therapeutic Efficiency of Multifunctional Hybrid Nanostructure against Glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma is considered the most fatal malignant brain tumor that starts from the central nervous system (CNS), where the blood-brain barrier (BBB) remains the biggest challenge for active targeting of drugs in malignant brain tumor. Thereby, we have designed a paclitaxel PTX@ANG/FA-NPs hybrid novel nanodrug delivery system that can overcome the clinical BBB. The structural and morphological characterization of PTX@ANG/FA-NPs confirmed successful synthesis of nanomicelles with the size range of about 160 to 170 nm. The overall repressive effect of PTX@ANG/FA-NPs on human glioblastoma U251 cells was 1.2-times that of PTX alone. In vitro cellular uptake assay also demonstrated that the dual-targeted nanoparticles (NPs) were more easily taken up by glioblastoma U251 cells. Although
