Difluorinated curcumin (CDF), a synthetic curcumin analog, encapsulated in folic acid and bovine serum albumin NPs (FA-BSA-CDF) and paclitaxel (PTX) encapsulated in folic acid and bovine serum albumin (FA-BSA-PTX) showed anticancer effect through targeting folate receptor and induction of apoptosis in folate overexpressing ovarian and cervical cancers. Here, ALB is linked to cervical cancer.
