General Information

• Project title: Delivery of two drugs exhibiting synergistic anticancer effect, by using novel stimuli-sensitive nanogels
• Type: Project looking for partner
• Organisation: University of Warsaw
• Country: Poland (PL)

Research area

• NSF calls:
  • EAGER
  • International Supplements
• Keywords:

  drug delivery; nanogel; doxorubicine; nanoparticles; cytotoxicity

• Brief description of your expertise / expertise you are looking for:

  I am an expert in synthesis and characterization of drug delivery carriers, mainly based on stimuli-responsive nanogels consist with polymers such as N-isopropylacrylamide, N-vinylcaprolactam etc. and new degradable cross-linking agents. My nanogels of different size, structure and other controlled properties are able to release drugs only in conditions typical for cancer cells.

• Brief description of your project / the project you would like to join:

  In new project I would like to use my drug nanocarriers based on nanogels for loading and releasing different drugs, especially hydrophobic drugs which are difficult to load to carriers, particularly combination of two drugs exhibiting synergistic anticancer effect. Interesting will be use new drugs which are commercially not available. I would like also use polysaccharides nanocarriers which I recently obtained with new method.
