Topical Nanoliposomal Collagen Delivery for Targeted Fibril Formation by Electrical Stimulation (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 28/2024)
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Collagen Delivery The cover of the article 2400693 by Giyoong Tae, Kwanwoo Shin, and co-workers showcases a novel mechanism: collagen monomers within lipid nanoparticles are applied to the skin and synthesized into collagen fibers within the dermal layer, facilitated by external electrical stimulation. This process is visualized to demonstrate that without electrical stimulation, the liposomes transport the monomers to the skin at a low pH, with synthesis solely occurring in the dermis.
