Development Of Surface-Modified Liposomes For Drug Delivery Applications, Megan Louise Qualls May 2023

Development Of Surface-Modified Liposomes For Drug Delivery Applications, Megan Louise Qualls

Doctoral Dissertations

Liposomes are spherical vesicles composed of a lipid bilayer membrane that assembles around an internal aqueous core. This duality gives liposomes the ability to encapsulate both hydrophobic cargo within the lipid bilayer and hydrophilic cargo in the aqueous core, making them versatile molecular carriers for drug delivery. Liposome platforms have many advantages and are promising drug delivery carriers, and research is ongoing to improve their designs for continued clinical applications. Many liposome types have been developed, but further work is needed to improve surface modification, site-specific targeting, and triggered cargo release in order to further the therapeutic applications of these …
