Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite and welcome submissions to this Special Issue the Pharmaceutics journal. This issue focuses on the advancements and applications of liposomes in drug delivery, highlighting their role in targeted therapy and diagnosis. Since its first appearance, a lot of research has aimed at bridging the gap between the lab and the market. Therefore, the focus is on various aspects of liposomes in drug delivery, including but not limited to the design and synthesis of liposomes, advancements in targeted drug delivery using liposomes, the role of liposomes in gene therapy, innovations in liposome formulations for enhanced drug stability and the application of liposomes in specific medical conditions such as cancer therapy, regenerative medicine and others. This issue is a vital contribution to the field of nanomedicine, showcasing the versatility and efficiency of liposomes as drug carriers.
