The Power of Lipids: Enhancing Drug Delivery with Nanoparticles

Roots Analysis

Gene Therapies: LNPs have the ability to effectively deliver nucleic acids, including small interfering RNA (siRNA), messenger RNA (mRNA), and plasmid DNA to the target cells. 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. Conde says the use of nanoparticle delivery for gene therapies has become more common over recent years. Langer, now a David H.
