Anti-proliferative and antibacterial<i>in vitro</i>evaluation of the polyurethane nanostructures incorporating pentacyclic triterpenes

Abstract

Although the active compounds did not fully exert their anti-proliferative activity following encapsulation inside polymeric nanoparticles, in vivo evaluation is needed in order to obtain an exhaustive conclusion, as the active compounds could be released as a result of metabolic activity.
