Revolutionizing Influenza Treatment: A Deep Dive into Targeted Drug Delivery Systems.

Influenza, a highly transmissible respiratory infection caused by influenza viruses A and B, poses a persistent threat to global public health due to its high mutation rate, ability to develop resistance to existing antiviral drugs, and capacity for rapid spread. Current treatment options, including four main classes of antiviral agents-adamantanes, neuraminidase inhibitors, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitors, and polymerase acidic endonuclease inhibitors- are limited by the emergence of drug-resistant viral strains, non-specific drug distribution, and adverse side effects. Moreover, the effectiveness of traditional vaccines is often compromised by antigenic drift and shift, necessitating the development of alternative therapeutic strategies.

Plant-derived Exosomes: Pioneering Breakthroughs in Therapeutics, Targeted Drug Delivery, and Regenerative Medicine.

Small extracellular vesicles called exosomes, which cells release, have drawn a lot of attention recently because of their ability to serve as therapeutic delivery systems for drugs and regenerative medicine applications. The investigation of plant-based exosomes as a cutting-edge platform for drug administration has emerged as an enticing research topic. A summary of the pharmaceutical feasibility of exosomes generated from plants and their uses in drug delivery along with regenerative medicine are the goals of this review study.
