Based on glucose (G) transporters (GLUTs), structuring nanoparticles with G as a target are an effective strategy to enhance oral bioavailability and anti-tumor effects of drugs. A novel drug delivery system using G-modified zein (GZ) nanoparticles loaded with docetaxel (DTX) (DTX-GNPs) was prepared...
