PHBV nanoparticles were synthesized by emulsification/solvent evaporation technique and obtained in the size range of 200–250 nm and zeta potential range of –21 and –27 mV. Encapsulation efficiency and in vitro drug release were studied. The cytotoxic, apoptotic, and necrotic effects of PHBV nanoparticles were also investigated using Saos-2 osteosarcoma cells. The results obtained in this study demonstrate that etoposideloaded and FA-functionalized PHBV nanoparticles can be successfully used for targeted treatment of osteosarcoma. Key words: PHBV nanoparticle, folate targeting, etoposide, targeted drug delivery, osteosarcoma 1. Introduction Osteosarcoma (OS), or osteogenic sarcoma, is the most common primary bone tumor in children and adolescents, accounting for 5% of all pediatric malignancies. It is a high-grade neoplasm with rapid growth and early metastasis, which typically is pulmonary. Current major OS therapy options include combinations of surgery and chemotherapy. Various chemotherapeutic .
