  • Low density lipoprotein nanocarriers for targeted delivery of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids to cancer
    Patent number: 9889092
    Abstract: An LDL nanocarrier is an effective and appropriate transporter for DHA in biological systems. The LDL-DHA nanoparticle was shown to be preferentially cytotoxic to malignant liver cells. These LDL-DHA nanoparticles show great promise as an anti-cancer agent. In particular embodiments, the nanoparticles exhibit a diameter of 15 to 30 nm.
