Editorial: Stimuli-responsive lipid-bioactive conjugate-based nanocarriers: a smart approach in biomaterial applications

Abstract

Stimuli-responsive lipid-bioactive conjugate-based nanocarriers are a revolutionary approach in biomaterial applications. These advanced nanosystems can remarkably adapt to various stimuli within the body, including pH, temperature, enzymes, and light. Their adaptability empowers precise control over drug release kinetics, minimizing unwanted effects while maximizing therapeutic efficacy. These smart nanocarriers have unparalleled efficiency in traversing physiological barriers and targeting specific cells or tissues, rendering them invaluable assets in drug delivery, imaging, and theranostics. They offer a sophisticated solution for personalized medicine and targeted therapy strategies, which hold great promise in treating various diseases.
