Targeted topical delivery of peptides and small molecules to the skin

This PhD project demonstrates the importance of minimally invasive techniques such as microneedles and non-invasive techniques such as cell penetrating peptides and magnetophoresis for enhanced transdermal delivery. Skin penetration strategies studied, showed enhancement in delivery of peptides and...

description This PhD project demonstrates the importance of minimally invasive techniques such as microneedles and non-invasive techniques such as cell penetrating peptides and magnetophoresis for enhanced transdermal delivery. Skin penetration strategies studied, showed enhancement in delivery of peptides and small molecules ranging from a few percent to several fold and have tremendous potential for clinical therapy upon demonstration of safety and efficacy.
