摘要
Macromolecular therapeutics provide numerous benefits for the delivery of cytotoxic or poorly soluble drugs in vivo. However, these constructs often encounter barriers for drug delivery on both the systemic and subcellular level. Many soluble polymer carriers have been designed to surmount specific physiological barriers individually, but less work has been dedicated to designing an all-encompassing construct that addresses multiple therapeutic barriers at once. Incorporation of multiple agents already individually known to increase effectiveness into one carrier could further improve current drug delivery technology. Recent developments in subcellular delivery of therapeutic agents in soluble macromolecular carriers are discussed in the context of the future possibility for the design of an all-encompassing soluble multi-functional drug delivery vehicle.
