Engineering nanoparticles to overcome the mucus barrier for drug delivery: Design, evaluation and state-of-the-art
Mucus is a viscoelastic hydrogel that lubricates and protects mucosal tissues such as the eyes, lung, gastrointestinal tract, and vagina. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) can be easily trapped in the mucus network by steric obstruction and/or binding interactions and then are efficien...
