In a recent study published in the Journal of Controlled Release, researchers developed 1,2-dimpalmiyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) liposomes co-loaded with methylprednisolone (MPS) and ...

For decades, scientists have explored the use of liposomes –– hollow spheres made of lipid bilayers –– to deliver chemotherapy drugs to tumor cells. But drugs can sometimes leak out of liposomes ...

In this illustration, a nanobowl (purple semicircle) supports the structure of a liposome (blue membrane bilayer) to help keep a chemotherapy drug (red) from leaking out. [Nano Letters 2020, DOI: ...

Researchers show once and for all that liposomes cannot function as carriers transporting active agents into the skin. The research group is the first in the world to use a special microscope, called ...

Chalet Tan is a professor in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center (TN, USA). Her lab focuses on targeted drug delivery, specifically biologics ...

Due to the amphiphilic nature of lipids in liposomes, they can serve as candidate vehicles for drug delivery, and liposomes have received more attention than other systems because of their remarkable ...

When synthesizing nanoscale liposomes, the ability to control vesicle size helps define their pharmaceutical properties. Conventional microfluidic liposome synthesis methods, however, are limited in ...

The use of liposomes for drug delivery began early in the history of pharmaceutical nanocarriers. These nanosized, lipid bilayered vesicles have become popular as drug delivery systems owing to their ...

The modification of the liposomal surface by incorporating negatively charged lipids (e.g., by dicetylphosphate [DCP] incorporation), seems to increase the AM affinity to capture anionic liposomes via ...

Additional prognostic value of metabolic parameters measured by dual time point pretreatment F-18 FDG PET/CT in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the ...
