Liposomes

In this entry I will speak about a liposomes, this nanoparticules are the most I know because  with my colleagues we made a report and we made a presentation about them the last week.

 Liposomes are a nanoparticules of natural origin and semi-sintetic, they are formed by a phospholipid layer which can contain any particle  water soluble inside, because this we can transport any drug  selectively, this is possible by modifications on the surface of the liposomes. You can add different proteins to fulfill this function!

These can transport anticancer agents for the treatment of cancer, for example skin cancer. With the use of the liposomes could be used less doses since to be directed specifically to the cancer cells would not lose drug to other areas of the body, also this it allows reduce the secondary effects because the drugs are cytotoxic and with liposomes the drug can acts onlyy in the action site.
This can help a to many people with differents tipes of cancer. Although this method has already been developed to develop different dermatological creams.
But this metod is so expensive for use in a treatament cancer, But could be a good alternative in the futureResultado de imagen para liposomas
