Bacterial nanostructures developed to locally deliver proteins

Bacterial nanostructures developed to locally deliver proteins

panish researchers demonstrated that bacterial inclusion bodies, non-toxic nanostructures, hold promise for a sustained, local delivery of protein drugs by mimicking components of a mammal’s endocrine system.

New materials developed as controllable, localized systems of drug delivery often aim to be immobilized in a given tissue as a drug “depot” for long term supply of the drug. Hydrogels, polymers, and other biomaterials have been researched as scaffolds for drug delivery, but toxicity and rejection can present issues in the system’s long-term stability.
