Functionalized gold nanoparticles improve afatinib delivery into cancer cells

Objectives: A drug delivery system based on colloidal pegylated gold nanoparticles (PEGAuNPs) conjugated with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor afatinib was designed and tested for enhancing the drug activity against pancreatic and NSCLC cells. Methods: PEGAuNPs were synthesized and characterized physic...
