Temporal pressure enhanced topical drug delivery through micropore formation by Lio, Daniel Chin Shiuan, Chia, Ruining, Kwek, Milton Sheng Yi, Wiraja, Christian, Madden, Leigh Edward, Chang, Hao, S. Mohideen Abdul Khadir, Wang, Xiaomeng, Becker, David Lawrence, Xu, Chenjie

“…A 1 min treatment of 0.28-MPa allows nanoparticles (up to 500 nm) and macromolecules (up to 20 kDa) to reach a depth of 430-μm into the dermal layer. Using, as an example, the delivery of insulin through topical application after the pressure treatment yields up to 80% drop in blood glucose in diabetic mice.…”

Tumor-targeted nano-assemblies for energy-blocking cocktail therapy in cancer by Chen, Manling, Liu, Yidu, Li, Yang, Liu, Xue

“…These MA-dots not only preserve the antitumor properties of metformin but also serve as a targeted delivery platform for 2-DG, ensuring its direct reach to the tumor site. Upon reaching the acidic tumor environment, the composite disintegrates, releasing 2-DG to inhibit glycolysis by targeting hexokinase 2 (HK2), the key enzyme in glycolysis, while MA-dots inhibit mitochondrial OXPHOS. …”
