of gold-gold sulfide (GGS) nanoshells. Materials and Methods: Synthesis and characterization of GGS nanoshells were initially performed. CT26 cells were ubcutaneously injected into the flank of BALB/c mice to create the colon carcinoma tumor models...

One of the most important issues in cancer therapy is the specificity of drug delivery to tumor site. Many of the usual cancer treatment methods cannot cover this requirement and new strategies are needed. In these new ...

in the construction of pcDNA 3.1+/ESAT-6 and pcDNA3.1+/CFP-10 plasmids. After intramuscular injection of BALB/c mice with these plasmids, ESAT-6 and CFP-10 mRNA expression was assessed by RT-PCR. Mice were inoculated and boosted with the plasmids to evaluate...
