Not exact matches

The authors conclude «in summary, the development of chitosan nanoparticles loaded with current trypanocidal drugs coated by a specific nanobody against trypanosomes can reduce the minimal curative dose of these drugs, enhancing their efficacy, minimizing the toxicity and circumventing resistance mechanisms caused by mutations in surface transporters.»

«With a key challenge being that resistance to drugs is spreading faster than new drugs are being developed and approved,» they suggest that «the use of encapsulated, nanobody - targeted drugs as described here has the potential to reverse resistance to many first - line treatments.»
