Abstract
Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nano- and micro-sized double-layered membrane entities derived from most cell types and released into biological fluids. Biological properties (cell-uptake, biocompatibility), and chemical (composition, structure) or physical (size, density) characteristics make EVs a good candidate for drug delivery systems (DDS). Recent advances in the field of EVs (e.g., scaling-up production, purification) and developments of new imaging methods (total-body positron emission tomography [PET]) revealed benefits of radiolabeled EVs in diagnostic and interventional medicine as a potential DDs in theranostics.
期刊介绍:
The journal Bio-Algorithms and Med-Systems (BAMS), edited by the Jagiellonian University Medical College, provides a forum for the exchange of information in the interdisciplinary fields of computational methods applied in medicine, presenting new algorithms and databases that allows the progress in collaborations between medicine, informatics, physics, and biochemistry. Projects linking specialists representing these disciplines are welcome to be published in this Journal. Articles in BAMS are published in English. Topics Bioinformatics Systems biology Telemedicine E-Learning in Medicine Patient''s electronic record Image processing Medical databases.
