Anticancer Efficacy of Targeted Shikonin Liposomes Modified with RGD in Breast Cancer Cells
Shikonin (SHK) has been proven to have a good anti-tumor effect. However, poor water solubility and low bioavailability limit its wide application in clinical practice. In this study, to overcome these drawbacks, RGD-modified shikonin-loaded liposomes (RGD-SSLs-SHK) were successfully prepared. It ex...
