New way in delivering immunomodulatory drugs in T1D
With no effective therapy to date, the ongoing Type 1 diabetes (T1D) epidemic continues to be a major health problem. While immune therapeutics hold great promise for the treatment of T1D, their inadequacy, serious toxicity, side effects, and morbidity have limited research efforts in the lifelong immunosuppression approach. This shortcoming has prompted investigators to search for alternative approaches. Targeted nanomedicine using polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) holds particular promise to enhance the delivery of immune therapeutics to treat T1D. This strategy can minimize the undesirable side effects of immune therapeutics by delivering them to diseased tissues, where they can undergo…
