All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is a molecule that finds wide applications in medicine. Connection between cancer cell proliferation and ATRA is a well-established item. Driven by the potential applications of liposomes in stabilizing and protecting therapeutic compounds thus enabling effective delivery of encapsulated compounds, recent research efforts have been directed to understanding mechanisms of oral delivery through the gastrointestinal tract. The surface charge of the liposome bilayers can modify the interactions between the aggregates and the gastrointestinal fluids. Ausführliche Beschreibung
