Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Preparation and characterization of diisopropylphenol-linolenic acid conjugate entrapped liposomal nano-formulation. • Assessment of anticancer potential of nano-formulation against liver cancer. • The conjugate was able to inhibit proliferation, adhesion and migration of HepG2 cancer cells. • The nano-formulation modulated expression of COX-2, bcl-2 and Bax resulting in apoptosis of liver cancer cells in mice.
