Leukocytes play a vital role in immune responses, including defending against invasive
pathogens, reconstructing impaired tissue, and maintaining immune homeostasis. When the …

The concept of targeted drug delivery can be described in terms of the drug systems' ability
to mimic the biological objects' property to localize to target cells or tissues. For example …

Tissue repair and regeneration is a complex process. Our bodies have an excellent capacity
to regenerate damaged tissues in many situations. However, tissue healing is impaired in …

Introduction Macrophages are involved in the normal defense of the body; however, the
varying phenotypes of macrophages and imbalance in their ratio lead to the impairment of …

Targeting specific organs and cell types using nanotechnology and sophisticated delivery
methods has been at the forefront of applicative biomedical sciences lately. Macrophages …

Macrophages are widely distributed in many tissues of the body including lympho-
