HEPATIC TARGETING – ADDRESSING VITAL THERAPEUTIC NEEDS

PAGE 7-15

Hepatic afflictions continue to pose serious challenges in therapy. The liver exhibits different types of cells, mainly, kupffer cells, sinusoidal endothelial cells, stellate cells and pit cells which represent reticuloendothelial systems. hepatocytes are the non-reticuloendothelial system. While...
