Hypoxia Engineered Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Targeting System with Tumor Microenvironment Regulation for Enhanced Chemotherapy of Breast Cancer

Improving the tumor targeting of docetaxel (DTX) would not only be favored for the chemotherapeutic efficacy, but also reduce its side effects. However, the regulation of the tumor microenvironment could further inhibit the growth of tumors. In this study, we introduced a system consisting of hypoxia-engineered bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (H-bMSCs) and DTX micelles (DTX-M) for breast cancer treatment. First, the stem cell chemotherapy...
