-targeted nanoparticle, researchers delivered the chemotherapy doxorubicin to target the blood vessels of the tumor. By using this type of novel targeted approach, scientists have been able to stop the spread of cancer cells. Since tumors rely on blood vessels to survive, the effective use of nanoparticles to deliver drugs may revolutionize cancer treatment.
