Advances in research of exosomes as targeted therapeutic vectors
Exosomes are nanoscale vesicles derived from the inner membrane of cells
containing life information such as nucleic acids
proteins and lipids. They play an important role in life activities as a mechanism of intercellular communication. Compared to liposome carriers
exosomes are more stable
biocompatible and less immunogenic
and can penetrate biological barriers such as the blood-brain barrier and the placental barrier. This article focused on the basis of exosome vector targeting
the method of carrier loading and the current application progress and prospects.
