Exosomes: Novel Bio-Inspired Nanocarriers for Efficient Targeting of Glioblastoma Tumor Cells

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Glioblastoma is a highly malignant brain tumor that is characterized by poor prognosis and high recurrence rate in patients. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are considered as standard methods of glioblastoma treatment. However, these methods have not been able to com...
