• ITMO Researchers Develop First Drug Delivery System for Selective Melanoma Treatment

  Scientists from ITMO University and Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University have developed a polymer-based delivery system for therapeutic agents and demonstrated its efficiency against cancer cells and non-toxicity to healthy cells, i.e. keratinocytes. The researchers opted for curcumin and usnic acid as therapeutic agents and loaded this mixture into a polymer hyaluronic acid-based matrix. The developed system may be used for regional chemotherapy or as a post-surgery wound bandage. The findings of the study are published in Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark.
