The subject of my work is to use magnetoliposomes as potential carriers of anticancer drugs. Research includes the synthesis of liposomes with magnetic nanoparticles and the release of selected anticancer drugs in the magnetic field. The magnetic properties of magnetoliposomes are used to selectively deliver carriers to the target site and to maintain the drug within diseased tissue. An external, alternating magnetic field can also be used for controlled release of the loaded drug that may occur due to hyperthermic effect or mechanical disruption of the lipid bilayer. Research is carried out using cells growing both in monolayers and in the form of spheroids in a properly designed microfluidic systems.
