The Power of Lipids: Enhancing Drug Delivery with Nanoparticles

Roots Analysis

Several LNP-based therapies are currently being evaluated in the clinical trials; majority of these are conducted for treating breast cancer, ovarian cancer and lung cancer. In addition, these can be modified with ligands in order to improve the specificity and selectivity of the gene therapy and reduce off-target effects.

Covid-19 vaccine success bolsters nanoparticle drug delivery research

Pharmaceutical Technology

Since then, the field of nanomedicine has steadily progressed to reach high points such as the successful use of nanotechnology to deliver messenger RNA (mRNA)-based Covid-19 vaccines. In the case of most mRNA vaccines, a lipid nanoparticle-based approach was chosen due to its ability to protect the mRNA in the body and prevent degradation.
