Synergistic Antitumor Activity from Two-Stage Delivery of Targeted Toxins and Endosome-Disrupting Nanoparticles

Synergistic Antitumor Activity from Two-Stage Delivery of Targeted Toxins and Endosome-Disrupting Nanoparticles

Plant-derived Type I toxins are candidate anticancer therapeutics requiring cytosolic delivery into tumor cells. We tested a concept for two-stage delivery, whereby tumor cells precoated with an antibody-targeted gelonin toxin were killed by exposure to endosome-disrupting polymer nanoparticles. Co-...
