Abstract Studies of how intravenously injected nanoparticles (NPs) enter tumours and are taken up by tumour cells have been discussed for more than three decades. Despite this, we still have much to learn about interactions between NPs and how they can be transported across the endothelial cell layer. More studies are required before firm conclusions can be drawn regarding the contribution of passive or energy dependent mechanisms for transport of NPs over the endothelial cells allowing the NPs to reach solid tumours.
