A Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-Based Antimicrobial Peptide Delivery System with Enhanced Anticancer Activity and Low Systemic Toxicity

The CEC@ZIF-8 nano-drug delivery system significantly enhanced the anti-cervical cancer effect of CEC both in vivo and in vitro, providing a more promising drug delivery system for clinical applications and tumor management. At the same time, this work demonstrates the clinical potential of CEC-loaded ZIF-8 nanoparticles for the selective destruction of tumor tissues.
