Antitumor Potential of S-Nitrosothiol-Containing Polymeric Nanoparticles against Melanoma

Melanoma is a malignant proliferative disease originated from melanocyte transformations, which are characterized by a high metastatic rate and mortality. Advances in Nanotechnology have provided useful new approaches and tools for antitumor chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying chitosan nanoparticles containing S-nitrosomercaptosuccinic acid (S-nitroso-MSA-CS) induced cytotoxicity in melanoma...
