For over a century, researchers have focused on how to optimize drug delivery. Systemic
administration means that the drug becomes dilute and has the potential to diffuse to all …

Drug delivery systems aim at improving drug transport efficiency and therapeutic efficacy by
rational design, and current research on conventional delivery systems brings new …

Certain types of cells possess unique characteristics such as tumor homing and prolonged
circulation in blood, which are worthy of being exploited in drug delivery carriers for cancer …

The accumulation of therapeutic and imaging agents at sites of interest is critical to their
efficacy. Similarly, off‐target effects (especially toxicity) are a major liability for these entities …

The application of cells as carriers to encapsulate chemotherapy drugs is of great
significance in antitumor therapy. The advantages of reducing systemic toxicity, enhancing …

The living cells have been emerged as useful platforms for drug delivery due to their
advantages of good liquidity, stability, and low immunogenicity. In this review, we …

Synthetic micro-/nanoparticle (MNP) carriers, either organic or inorganic ones, have
advanced considerably in recent years for drug delivery with the aim of enhancing drug …

Use of cells as therapeutic carriers has increased in the past few years and has developed
as a distinct concept and delivery method. Cell-based vehicles are particularly attractive for …

Cell-mediated drug delivery systems employ specific cells as drug vehicles to deliver drugs
to targeted sites. Therapeutics or imaging agents are loaded into these cells and then …

The field of drug delivery has grown tremendously in the past few decades by developing a
wide range of advanced drug delivery systems. An interesting category is cell-based drug …
