Abstract
Deformability is one of the critical attributes of nanoparticle (NP) drug carriers, along with size, shape, and surface properties. It affects various aspects of NP biotransport, ranging from circulation and biodistribution to interactions with biological barriers and target cells. Recent studies report additional roles of NP deformability in biotransport processes, including protein corona formation, intracellular trafficking, and organelle distribution. This review focuses on the literature published in the past five years to update our understanding of NP deformability and its effect on NP biotransport. We introduce different methods of modulating and evaluating NP deformability and showcase recent studies that compare a series of NPs in their performance in biotransport events at all levels, highlighting the consensus and disagreement of the findings. It concludes with a perspective on the intricacy of systematic investigation of NP deformability and future opportunities to advance its control toward optimal drug delivery.
期刊介绍：
The aim of the Journal is to provide a forum for the critical analysis of advanced drug and gene delivery systems and their applications in human and veterinary medicine. The Journal has a broad scope, covering the key issues for effective drug and gene delivery, from administration to site-specific delivery.
In general, the Journal publishes review articles in a Theme Issue format. Each Theme Issue provides a comprehensive and critical examination of current and emerging research on the design and development of advanced drug and gene delivery systems and their application to experimental and clinical therapeutics. The goal is to illustrate the pivotal role of a multidisciplinary approach to modern drug delivery, encompassing the application of sound biological and physicochemical principles to the engineering of drug delivery systems to meet the therapeutic need at hand. Importantly the Editorial Team of ADDR asks that the authors effectively window the extensive volume of literature, pick the important contributions and explain their importance, produce a forward looking identification of the challenges facing the field and produce a Conclusions section with expert recommendations to address the issues.
