2. Nanocarrier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanocarrier

   Nanocarriers range from sizes of diameter 1–1000 nm, [3] [4] however due to the width of microcapillaries being 200 nm, nanomedicine often refers to devices <200 nm. [4] Because of their small size, nanocarriers can deliver drugs to otherwise inaccessible sites around the body.

3. Nanoparticle drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoparticle_drug_delivery

   Nanoparticle drug delivery systems are engineered technologies that use nanoparticles for the targeted delivery and controlled release of therapeutic agents. The modern form of a drug delivery system should minimize side-effects and reduce both dosage and dosage frequency. Recently, nanoparticles have aroused attention due to their potential ...

4. Targeted drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Targeted_drug_delivery

   The conventional drug delivery system is the absorption of the drug across a biological membrane, whereas the targeted release system releases the drug in a dosage form. The advantages to the targeted release system is the reduction in the frequency of the dosages taken by the patient, having a more uniform effect of the drug, reduction of drug ...

   Nanomedicine seeks to deliver a valuable set of research tools and clinically useful devices in the near future. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] The National Nanotechnology Initiative expects new commercial applications in the pharmaceutical industry that may include advanced drug delivery systems, new therapies, and in vivo imaging. [ 6 ]

6. Coiled-coil drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coiled-coil_drug_delivery

   Dr. Hodges was the first to suggest the use of coiled coils in a drug delivery system in 1996 when he proposed a two-stage targeting and delivery system based on heterodimerization, whereby a drug would be conjugated to chain 1 and an antibody would be conjugated to chain 2, such that chains 1 and 2 would form a heterodimeric coiled coil.

7. Drug delivery - Wikipedia

   Drug delivery systems have been around for many years, but there are a few recent applications of drug delivery that warrant 1. Drug delivery to the brain: Many drugs can be harmful when administered systemically; the brain is very sensitive to medications and can easily cause damage if a drug is administered directly into the bloodstream.
