Several nanovectors have been developed and a growing number of products have been approved. It is well known that many biomaterials are able to self-organize under controlled conditions giving rise nanostructures. Polymers, lipids, inorganic materials, peptides and proteins, and surfactants are examples of such biomaterials and the self-assembling property can be exploited to design nanovectors that are useful for drug delivery. The self-organization of nanostructures is an attractive approach to preparing nanovectors, avoiding complex and high-energy-consuming preparation methods, and, in some cases, facilitating drug loading procedures. Moreover, preparations based on these biocompatible and pharmaceutical grade biomaterials allow an easy transfer from the lab to the industrial scale. This book reports ten different works, and a review, aiming to cover multiple strategies and pharmaceutical applications in the field of self-organizing nanovectors for drug delivery. 606 $aMedicine$2bicssc 610 $aaerogel 610 $aamphiphilic random copolymers 610 $aanticancer 610 $aantimicrobial photodynamic therapy 610 $aastaxanthin 610 $aautophagy induction 610 $abetulinic acid 610 $abiofilms 610 $abolaform amphiphilic lipids 610 $abolalipids 610 $aC-peptide 610 $acaries prevention 610 $achitosan 610 $achorioallantoic membrane model 610 $acontrolled release 610 $acurcumin 610 $adiabetes 610 $adiffusion barrier 610 $adoxorubicin 610 $adrug delivery 610 $adrug delivery system 610 $adrug delivery systems 610 $aencapsulation 610 $aeukaryotic vaults 610 $agold nanoparticles 610 $agold reduction 610 $agraphene quantum dots 610 $ahyaluronan 610 $ahydrogel 610 $ain situ gelling systems 610 $aintracellular therapy 610 $airradiation cycles 610 $alaser treatment 610 $aliposomes 610 $alocalized heating effect 610 $amixed polymeric micelles 610 $amultidrug resistance 610 $anano-assemblies 610 $ananocage 610 $ananohydrogels 610 $ananoparticle 610 $ananoparticles 610 $ananovesicles 610 $anatural extracts 610 $aOral antimicrobials 610 $aoxidative stress 610 $apH/redox-responsive 610 $aphoto-thermal therapy 610 $apolyelectrolyte complexes 610 $apolypeptides 610 $aprotein self-assembly 610 $apulmonary surfactant 610 $aresveratrol 610 $aself-assembly 610 $asiRNA delivery 610 $asqualene 610 $asyringeable implant 610 $atrehalose 610 $atriggered release 610 $avapor nanobubbles 610 $azoledronic acid 615 7$aMedicine 700 $aMatricardi$b Pietro$4auth$01302114 702 $aDe Rosa$b Giuseppe$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404087803321 996 $aSelf-Organizing Nanovectors for Drug Delivery$93026130 997 $aUNINA
