Researchers at UNLV have developed a novel nanoparticle system called ENDO that can selectively deliver mRNA directly to the pancreas by leveraging the body's Vitamin D receptors, potentially revolutionizing treatments for pancreatic diseases like diabetes and cancer with increased precision and fewer side effects.
Scientists at the Peter Doherty Institute have developed a new mRNA delivery method using lipid nanoparticles to make hidden HIV visible in cells, marking a significant step toward potentially curing the virus, though further testing and trials are needed.
Bioengineers are making strides in breaching the blood-brain barrier by developing a method using lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to deliver mRNA, offering new hope for treating conditions like Alzheimer's disease and seizures. This breakthrough could lead to novel approaches for treating traumatic brain injury, stroke, and Alzheimer's, and the platform is currently tailored for testing a range of LNPs with brain-targeted peptides, antibodies, and various lipid compositions.
