Introduction: Biomimetic nanoparticles (bNp) have emerged as a tool in nanomedicine, aiming to improve drug delivery and to modulate immune recognition. These bNp integrate mostly lipid membranes and proteins to optimize their interactions with biological barriers. Although several studies have explored the effects of bNp composition on their performance, there is still a significant gap in understanding how biophysical characteristics, especially membrane organization, influence the final behavior of these Np. In this study, we present a set of data that sheds light on this issue for different bNp classes.
Learning Objectives:
At the completion of this activity, participants will know
Evaluate the influence of membrane organization in bNp on their final biophysical characteristics.
Understand bNp performance as drug delivery systems
Understand how these properties can enhance their effectiveness for nanomedicine applications
