Recent advances in nanomedicine have brought significant improvements to drug delivery systems, yet persistent hurdles remain ...

Hydrogels are often used as drug delivery systems, but to be effective carriers for anti-cancer drugs, they need to be responsive to varied stimuli in the tumor microenvironment. Now, scientists have ...

Novo Nordisk has expanded its drug delivery collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH). Building on advances such as the SOMA robotic pill, ...

Carbon-based stimuli-responsive nanomaterials are gaining much attention due to their versatility, including disease diagnosis and treatment. They work under endogenous (pH, temperature, enzyme, and ...

Researchers from the Institute of Polymer Science and Engineering, National Taiwan University, have developed a smart gel that responds to multiple stimuli for precise drug release. Gels that respond ...

Drug delivery utilizes various methods and/or carriers to transport therapeutic agents to the tissue, organ, cell, or subcellular organ of interest for release and absorption. Some of the primary ...

Cancer therapy in recent times relies on the use of several drugs derived from biological sources including different bacteria and viruses, among others. However, these bio-based drugs get easily ...
