Abstract
For a long time, efficient and safe gene delivery has been a key issue in gene therapy. In particular, after the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) technology in 2020, the focus on delivery systems for genome editing has grown. In this review, we introduce the recent trends in various CRISPR delivery systems. First, we explain the impact of CRISPR in clinical settings and its history. We then focused on the physics of gene delivery systems, particularly regarding the migration of nanoparticles (NPs) under flow, cellular uptake, and formulation using microfluidics. Subsequently, various CRISPR delivery systems, both viral and non-viral, and their applications in disease therapy were introduced. Viral carriers include lentiviruses, adeno-associated viruses, and viral capsids. Exosomes, silica NPs, polymeric NPs, and lipid NPs are representative non-viral gene delivery carriers. We mainly focused on studies demonstrating promising results in animal models, not stopped at cell test considering their future potential for human application.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Reviews (APR) is a journal featuring articles on critical topics in experimental or theoretical research in applied physics and applications of physics to other scientific and engineering branches. The publication includes two main types of articles:
Original Research: These articles report on high-quality, novel research studies that are of significant interest to the applied physics community.
Reviews: Review articles in APR can either be authoritative and comprehensive assessments of established areas of applied physics or short, timely reviews of recent advances in established fields or emerging areas of applied physics.
