Abstract EN
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is highly aggressive and tends to develop drug resistance to standard chemotherapies.
To overcome the drug resistance of ATC, we synthesized dopamine-melanin nanoparticles (MNPs) loaded with doxorubicin (Dox) molecules.
The Dox-loaded MNPs (Dox-MNPs) developed exhibited increased cellular uptake and enhanced therapeutic efficacy in drug-resistant ATC cell line HTh74R, compared with free Dox.
The native MNPs were found to have excellent biocompatibility, which suggests that Dox-MNPs may have potential in the treatment of ATC.
