Endocytosis: Mechanisms and Applications

This lecture covers the topic of endocytosis, focusing on the different types such as phagocytosis and pinocytosis, the role of lysosomes in digestion, and the process of drug delivery using liposomes. The instructor discusses the importance of understanding endocytosis in drug delivery and presents research on the impact of particle size and shape on cellular uptake. The lecture also touches on the fusion process between liposomes and endosomes, highlighting the mechanisms involved in cargo release and the factors influencing successful drug delivery.
