Journal Article
Bouzinab, K., Summers, H., Stevens, M. F., Moody, C. J., Thomas, N. R., Gershkovich, P., …Turyanska, L. (2020). Delivery of temozolomide and N3-propargyl analog to brain tumors using an apoferritin nanocage. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 12(11), 12609-12617. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.0c01514

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a grade IV astrocytoma, which is the most aggressive form of brain tumor. The standard of care for this disease includes surgery, radiotherapy and temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. Poor accumulation of TMZ at the tumor...

Autophagy modulation: a prudent approach in cancer treatment? (2018)
Journal Article
Bishop, E., & Bradshaw, T. D. (2018). Autophagy modulation: a prudent approach in cancer treatment?. Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00280-018-3669-6

Autophagy is a tightly controlled process comprising lysosomal degradation and recycling of cellular proteins and organelles. In cancer, its paradoxical dual role of cytoprotection and cytotoxicity is context-dependent and controversial. Autophagy pr...
