<p>A temperature-sensitive phase-change hydrogel of tamoxifen achieves the long-acting antitumor activation on breast cancer cells</p>

Abstract: Background: Breast cancer is one of the foremost threats to female health nowadays. Tamoxifen, an antagonist of estrogen receptor-α (ERα), is the first choice for endocrine-dependent breast cancer (ERα-positive breast cancer) treatment. However, ERα has an important function in the normal physical regulation of estrogen, and current oral administration of tamoxifen has potential side effects on normal endocrine secretion. In the present work, we aim to develop novel approaches to increase the antitu… Show more

“…Hepatic portal vein injection was used to inoculate HCC cells into the liver of nude mice, simulating the recurrence or metastasis of HCC cells in patients. In addition Meng et al [70][71][72] established a research model for the invasion of malignant tumor cells in the liver of nude mice. Li et al 73 developed a breast cancer lung metastasis model in nude mice.…”

“…Furthermore, Li et al produced a systematic summary and introduction for the design of hydrogels targeting controlled drug delivery 51,52. Meng et al prepared a temperature-sensitive phase-change hydrogel of tamoxifen achieving long sustainability of agru in tumor tissues and a long-acting antitumor effect 48,53. Studies are warranted to examine the differences between hydrogels prepared using different materials.…”

“…Following the formation of subcutaneous tumors in nude mice, the tumor tissues were harvested, and micro-blocks of tumor tissues were prepared (Table 4). Subsequently, the micro-blocks were injected into the liver of nude mice 3538. The mice received oral administration of agents 4–5 days after injection of the tumor tissue micro-blocks.…”
