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. The imaging agents can be incorporated into the LNP along with therapeutic agent, allowing for real-time monitoring of drug delivery and distribution.

Considerations for Neuroscience Trials with Intrathecal Delivery and Other Methods of Direct CNS Administration

XTalks

Such therapies may involve small interfering RNA (siRNA) or oligonucleotides in viral transfection platforms, large molecules and antibodies. However, according to Dr. Vornov, the use of intrathecal delivery in drug development is unexplored for small molecules and peptides besides what has already been proved.
