Recent evidence has extensively demonstrated the anticancer potential of nutraceuticals, including plant polyphenols. Polymeric nanocarrier systems have played an important role in improving the physicochemical and pharmacological properties of polyphenols, thus ameliorating their therapeutic effectiveness. This article summarizes the benefits and shortcomings of various polymeric systems developed for the delivery of polyphenols in cancer therapy and reveals some ideas for future work.

A method for the preparation of tritium labeled travoprost, a new ocular hypotensive prostaglandin, is described. A highly selective catalytic deiodination has been identified which provides [phenyl‐2‐3H]‐travoprost in a single synthetic step from 2′‐iodo‐travoprost. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
