Potency The combinations of paclitaxel-NPDP significantly inhibit proliferation of cells (P<0.001) and it is able to induce G2/M cell cycle arrest (P<0.001). The combination of paclitaxel-NPDP significantly decreases the expressions of TUBB3 (P<0.001) and MAP4 (P<0.001) in MCF-7 cells.
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7
Additional information  MCF-7 cells are cultured and divided into six groups: group 1 was a negative control (without paclitaxel or NPDP), group 2 was treated with paclitaxel alone, groups 3-5 were treated with NPDP (2, 4, and 8 mg/mL, respectively) and group 6 was treated only by 8 mg/mL of chitosan-NPDP nanoparticles.
