Abstract
Similar to mammalian cells, most bacteria can release nano-sized membrane vesicles (MVs) into the extracellular environment. MVs contain lipids, bioactive proteins, nucleic acids, and metabolites, and play important roles in microbial physiology. MVs have great potential for immunotherapeutic applications, such as bacterial vaccines and cancer immunotherapy. However, because of the diversity in content and heterogeneity in size of MVs, the clinical application of MVs has been limited. Recently, the use of MVs combined with nanoparticles (NPs) has been shown to be effective in improving the homogeneity, stability and function of MVs. In this review, we focus on studies of MVs combined with NPs (MV-NPs) and describe the use of these MV-NPs in biotechnology, especially in bacterial vaccine and cancer immunotherapy.
期刊介绍:
Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces is an international journal devoted to fundamental and applied research on colloid and interfacial phenomena in relation to systems of biological origin, having particular relevance to the medical, pharmaceutical, biotechnological, food and cosmetic fields.
Submissions that: (1) deal solely with biological phenomena and do not describe the physico-chemical or colloid-chemical background and/or mechanism of the phenomena, and (2) deal solely with colloid/interfacial phenomena and do not have appropriate biological content or relevance, are outside the scope of the journal and will not be considered for publication.
The journal publishes regular research papers, reviews, short communications and invited perspective articles, called BioInterface Perspectives. The BioInterface Perspective provide researchers the opportunity to review their own work, as well as provide insight into the work of others that inspired and influenced the author. Regular articles should have a maximum total length of 6,000 words. In addition, a (combined) maximum of 8 normal-sized figures and/or tables is allowed (so for instance 3 tables and 5 figures). For multiple-panel figures each set of two panels equates to one figure. Short communications should not exceed half of the above. It is required to give on the article cover page a short statistical summary of the article listing the total number of words and tables/figures.
