Lecture

Endocytosis of Materials

Description

This lecture explores the importance of size, shape, and charge in endocytosis processes, focusing on nanoparticles, DNA particles, and microparticles. It discusses the impact of shape and kinetics on cellular uptake, the role of charge in endosomal escape, and the influence of cell-penetrating peptides. The presentation concludes by highlighting the engineering strategies to design materials for cellular uptake and the fate of materials inside the cell.
