演講摘要:
Lipid Nanoparticles (LNPs) have been widely used as theranostic delivery carriers in different forms: vesicles (liposomes), solid spherical and discoidal nanoparticles. Examples can be found in liposomes for cancer treatment (Doxil), mRNA-LNP vaccines for COVID-19, etc. In this presentation, I will focus on our recent research on lipid discoidal nanoparticles (known as “bicelle”) covering the topics of its formation mechanism, structural characterization, bioavailability, preliminary in vitro study and other applications. This presentation shows that rational design of LNPs provides a promising direction to make drug delivery more efficient.
