What are Liposomes and How are They Used in Cancer?
Liposomes are spherical vesicles with a phospholipid bilayer, making them ideal for encapsulating a variety of drugs. They have been extensively studied and used in cancer treatment. For instance, Doxil, a liposomal formulation of doxorubicin, is widely used to treat ovarian cancer and Kaposi's sarcoma, offering reduced cardiac toxicity compared to its conventional counterpart.
