Dendrimersomes: Biomedical applications
Literature Information
Barbara Klajnert-Maculewicz, Anna Janaszewska, Agata Majecka
In recent years, dendrimer-based vesicles, known as dendrimersomes, have garnered significant attention as highly promising alternatives to lipid vesicles in a variety of biomedical applications. Dendrimersomes offer several advantages, including relatively straightforward synthesis, non-immunogenic properties, stability in circulation, and minimal size variability. These vesicles are composed of Janus dendrimers, which are polymers characterized by two dendritic wedges with different terminal groups – hydrophilic and hydrophobic. This dendrimer structure enables the self-assembly of dendrimersomes. The purpose of this highlight is to provide an overview of recent advancements achieved through the utilization of biomimetic dendrimersomes in various biomedical applications such as drug and nucleic acid delivery.
