“Star” miR-34a and CXCR4 antagonist based nanoplex for binary cooperative migration treatment against metastatic breast cancer

Invasion and metastasis of tumor cells is one of the major obstacles in cancer therapy. The process of tumor metastasis and diffusion is coordinated by multiple pathways associated with chemokine signals and migration microenvironment. In our previous work, chemokine CXC receptor 4 (CXCR4) antagonists showed significant anti-metastatic effects by blocking the CXCR4/stromal cell-derived factor-1(SDF-1) axis in pancreatic cancer and breast cancer....
