Liposome: A Novel Drug Delivery System

Roots Analysis

The hydrophobic portion contains two fatty acid chains with 10-24 carbon atoms, while the hydrophilic part primarily consists of phosphoric acid linked to a water-soluble molecule. Therapeutic Applications of Liposomes in Drug Delivery In comparison to existing formulations, liposomes offer greater therapeutic efficacy and safety.

Cell-penetrating peptides as a delivery system for oligonucleotides

Drug Discovery World

These peptides typically contain up to 30 amino acids and can be cationic, amphipathic or both. Over the years, a range of different CPPs have been developed, including natural translocating proteins through to newly-designed computer-prediction sequences 3. How are cell-penetrating peptides used?

Are All Excipients Truly Inert? Maybe Not, Suggests New Study

XTalks

Excipients can take many forms, such as bulking agents, binders, coatings and colourants, and they are chosen based on their ability to aid in drug delivery, administration and even in pill identification and prevention of counterfeiting. But just how inert are these excipients?

mRNA Therapeutics and mRNA Vaccines Industry: Current Scenario and Future Trends

Roots Analysis

It is important in the process of protein synthesis because mRNA is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, which then decodes the genetic information into a protein. In the last few years, researchers have become interested in using in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA as a drug delivery agent.
