Gene expression and apoptosis response in hepatocellular carcinoma cells induced by biocompatible polymer/magnetic nanoparticles containing 5-fluorouracil

Background: Super-paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) contain a chemotherapeutic drug and are regarded as a promising technique for improving targeted delivery into cancer cells. Results: In this study, the fabrication of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) was investigated with loaded Dextran (DEX-SPIO...
