Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on drug delivery systems (DDS) that overcome biological barriers and pathological environments for improved therapeutic outcomes. Research explores utilizing cellular functions and components as drug carriers, modifying nanoparticles with cell membrane components, and applying extracellular vesicles. The journal also covers the use of proteomics for identifying target molecules and understanding drug delivery mechanisms, and the development of novel immunotherapies and antibody drugs through DDS technologies. Furthermore, it investigates cell-based therapies and DDS fusion technologies for tissue regeneration, particularly in lymphatics, and the application of nano-DDS for cancer immunotherapy and understanding tumor immunity. Advanced DDS concepts include ultrasound-responsive systems for precise drug delivery and theranostics, and engineered cells that trigger inflammatory responses to combat cancer.
