NANOPARTICLE COMPOSITIONS

摘要

A method of Nanoparticle-based therapy for a mammalian subject is disclosed. The method uses Nanoparticles and/or Nanoparticles with outer surfaces that contain an affinity moiety effective to bind specifically to a biological surface at which the therapy is aimed, and a hydrophilic polymer coating. The hydrophilic polymer coating is made up of polymer chains either covalently linked or surface adsorbed to the polymer components. After a desired Nanoparticle biodistribution is achieved, the affinity agent binds to the target surface and helps internalize the Nanoparticles
