Bioinspired caffeic acid-laden milk protein-based nanoparticles targeting folate receptors for breast cancer treatment

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Conventional chemotherapeutic therapies lack the specific targeting effect toward the cancerous cells resulting in extensive side effects. Our current study endeavors to prepare novel bioinspired folic acid-functionalized caffeic acid (CA)-loaded casein nanoparticles (CS NPs) for curbing breast cancer.
