Extended Data Fig. 6: Characterization of dextran sulfate/vismodegib nanoparticles.

(a) Dynamic light scattering characterization of DexVis nanoparticles. (b) HPLC quantification of vismodegib in DexVis and FiVis nanoparticle formulations from three preparations, and a standard curve of vismodegib. (c) Encapsulation efficiencies of FiVis and DexVis nanoparticles. Data are means ± SEM. n = 3 samples from independent experiments; ns, not significant (two-tailed t test). (d) Drug release profile of FiVis and DexVis nanoparticles incubated at 37 °C (25% adult bovine serum in PBS). Evaluated by HPLC quantification of vismodegib released into solution over time. Data are means ± SEM. n = 3 samples from independent experiments.
