Novel nanocarriers for silencing anti-phagocytosis CD47 marker in acute myeloid leukemia cells
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2022 Jun 1;217:112609. doi: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.112609. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAcute myeloid leukemia (AML), a malignant disorder of Hematopoietic stem cells, can escape immunosurveillance by over expression of the cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) marker, which functions as an inhibitory signal, suppressing phagocytosis by binding to signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα) on macrophages. AML is treated mainly by chemotherapy, which has drastic side effects and poor outcomes for the patients. Most AML patients develop drug resistance, so other methods to treat AML are highly requ...
