Dendrimer as nanocarrier for drug delivery and drug targeting therapeutics: a fundamental to advanced systematic review

Bacteriophages as nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery and enhanced therapeutic effects

“…Their advantages as drug delivery systems include small size, functionalisation capability, drug targeting, and ease of preparation. 57 2.2.7 Exosomes. Exosomes are bio-inspired vesicular nanocarriers derived from the fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane and secreted upon stimulation.…”

Polymer-Based Drug Delivery Systems for Cancer Therapeutics

“…Dendrimers readily form stable micellar or globular symmetric structures and can be easily surface-modified to enhance the water solubility of encapsulated drugs [ 152 ]. Dendrimers provide a higher stability than liposomes and micelles under various conditions, including high temperature, pressure, shear stress, and dilutions, thereby improving pharmacokinetic factors [ 153 ]. They can be chemically modified for both active and passive targeting.…”

Inorganic nanoparticle-cored dendrimers for biomedical applications: A review

“…Dendrimers belong to the class of synthetic macromolecules with an exceptionally high density of functional groups on their surface and a well-defined three-dimensional polymeric architecture. The unique characteristics of dendrimers, including their precise shape, size, molecular weight, and versatility in designing various types, have resulted in their expanded use across a wide range of applications [ 53 ]. Dendrimers typically consist of three distinct domains: the core, dendrons, and terminal functional groups.…”
