Summary
Liposomes are artificially prepared nanoparticles which
have a multitude of biotechnological applications. The
ability to add surface decorations to alter the properties
of liposomes makes them a valuable tool in drug design.
The addition of PEGylation, mAbs and TAT protein
enabled us to design a novel cancer therapy which could
potentially be used in the treatment of colorectal and
other cancers.
