“…Over the last five decades, several types of drug delivery systems have been explored to encapsulate drugs and other biomolecules in general ( Torchilin, 2006 ). These include liposomes ( Bangham et al, 1965 ; Lopez-Berestein et al, 1985 ; Lasic, 1998 ; Torchilin, 2007 ; Haley and Frenkel, 2008 ; Steichen et al, 2013 ), micelles ( Lavasanifar et al, 2002 ; Moghimi et al, 2005 ; Mu et al, 2005 ; Liechty and Peppas, 2012 ) dendrimers ( Hughes, 2005 ; Majoros et al, 2006 ; Kurtoglu et al, 2010 ; Rai et al, 2010 ; Arpicco et al, 2015 ) and polymeric nanoparticles ( Czerniawska, 1970 ; Jain, 2000 ; Brigger et al, 2002 ; Panyam et al, 2003 ; Ratner et al, 2004 ; Reis et al, 2006a ; Guterres et al, 2007 ; Stevanović et al, 2007 ; Faraji and Wipf, 2009 ; Muthu and Singh, 2009 ; Kumari et al, 2010 ; Rao and Geckeler, 2011 ; Chen and Liu, 2012 ). In this review, the role of various drug delivery systems applied in encapsulating AMPs will be discussed.…”
