Covid-19 vaccine success bolsters nanoparticle drug delivery research

Pharmaceutical Technology

The next wave came from early research into liposomes and lipid nanoparticles, both of which are used for drug delivery. Liposomes have the same function as lipid nanoparticles in drug delivery but have a simpler formulation. Lipid nanoparticle drug delivery was in the spotlight during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Intracellular Drug Delivery – A Potential Treatment for Lethal Orphan Diseases

Roots Analysis

We have put in our best effort to make it easily graspable what are the intracellular drug delivery technologies and how it can ensure effective treatment for fatal disease. Below are the highlights that we feel would be helpful to understand about the intracellular drug delivery / intracellular non-viral drug delivery approach.

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

XTalks

One of the biggest challenges with developing therapies to treat CNS disorders is the delivery of systemically administered investigational products (IPs) to the brain, which is limited by the blood-brain barrier. Some methods of direct CNS administration include intrathecal, intraparenchymal and intracerebroventricular (ICV) delivery.

New Frontiers in Cancer Therapies: Focus on Transcription Factors, GTPases, Phosphatases and GPCRs, 2018-2030

Roots Analysis

However, certain biological targets have long eluded drug development efforts. Scientific literature suggests that the RAS gene is mutated across about 30% of cancer types. One such target is Ras family, which has been identified to play a critical role in oncogenesis.
