The specialized microfold cells (M cells) in the follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) of
intestinal Peyer's patches serve as antigen-sampling cells of the intestinal innate immune …

In recent years, gold (Au) and silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) have been the centerstage of
improving cancer treatments and therapies, substantially attributed to their size and shape …

Designing active targeting nanocarriers with increased cellular accumulation of
chemotherapeutic agents is a promising strategy in cancer therapy. Herein, we report a …

A microfluidics approach to synthesize core–shell nanocarriers with high pH tunability is
described. The sacrificial shell protects the core layer with the drugs and prevents their …

The last decade has witnessed a sustained increase in the research development of modern-
day chemo-therapeutics, especially for those used for high mortality rate pathologies …

The main objectives of the present study were (i) to evaluate the effect of the mucus layer on
saquinavir-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (SQV-NLCs) uptake and (ii) to evaluate the …

Recent developments in materials science and specific surface functionalization of materials
are providing new tools for the rational design of precisely engineered drug delivery …

Ligand-functionalization can increase the affinity of nanoparticles (NPs) with targeted cells.
However, one major defect of ligands still exists in oral administration: limited receptor …

Biomimetic nanocarriers are emerging as efficient vehicles to facilitate dietary absorption of
biomacromolecules. In this study, two vitamins, thiamine and niacin, are employed to …

Despite extensive research on corticosteroids for treating asthma, their short residence time
in the lungs has limited their therapeutic effects in vivo. Nanoparticles have been widely …
