Exosome-inspired targeting of cancer cells with enhanced affinity

Mohammad Mahdi Hasani-Sadrabadi, Ardalan Hosseini, Hasan Pezeshgi Modarres

One of the major challenges in the area of novel drug delivery systems (NDDSs) is finding distinguished ligands for specific receptors represented by many cancer cells in order to enhance their cancer homing efficacy. Exosomes, the so-called natural nanoca ...
