Abstract


Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC), a rapidly growing tumor model, poses challenges in chemotherapy due to toxicity and resistance. Liposomal drug delivery improves anticancer therapy by enhancing bioavailability, targeting, and reducing systemic toxicity. Cisplatin (Cis), although effective, induces severe hepatic and renal toxicity. Anthocyanins (Ant), natural flavonoids with antioxidant and anticancer activities, can synergize with chemotherapy and reduce toxicity. This study evaluated three nano-liposomal formulations for EAC: Ant-loaded liposomes (Ant Ls), Cis-loaded liposomes (Cis Ls), and their combination (Cis + Ant Ls).
