In the era of precision medicine, the demand for smart and targeted drug delivery technologies is greater than ever. Redox-responsive delivery systems represent a cutting-edge approach that exploits the unique oxidative and reductive environments of diseased tissues to achieve site-specific therapeutic action.
This comprehensive volume brings together foundational knowledge, recent innovations, and application-specific insights into redox-sensitive systems used for drug, gene, and vaccine delivery. The book covers a wide range of carriers-including polymersomes, liposomes, nanoparticles, micelles, prodrugs, and dendrimers-highlighting their utility across various therapeutic landscapes, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic disorders, infectious diseases, and gene editing platforms like CRISPR-Cas9.
Key Features:
- Explores the principles and design of redox-responsive materials
- Covers disease-specific applications including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, diabetes, and antimicrobial resistance
- Discusses innovative delivery systems for siRNA, and genome editing
- Addresses industrial translation, scale-up, and commercialization challenges
- Authored by leading experts in pharmaceutics, nanomedicine, and biomedical engineering
Ideal for pharmaceutical scientists, nanotechnologists, biomedical researchers, and healthcare innovators, this book serves as a definitive guide to one of the most promising frontiers in drug delivery science.
Harness redox biology to revolutionize how therapeutics are delivered-safely, smartly, and effectively.
