Intracellular Trafficking of Magnetic Nanoparticles to Design Multifunctional Biovesicles

Abstract

Nanomagnetism associated with cell biology enables the design of therapeutic vectors. Internalization and release of superparamagnetic nanoparticles (see image) produces submicrometric magnetic biovesicles endowed with tracer qualities for magnetic resonance imaging, targeting by magnetic guidance, and therapeutics.
