organ specificity

How is Organ Specificity Achieved?

Achieving organ specificity involves several strategies:
1. Surface Modification: Nanoparticles can be functionalized with specific ligands that bind to receptors on the target organ or tissue.
2. Shape and Size: The size and shape of nanoparticles influence their biodistribution and accumulation in specific organs.
3. Magnetic Guidance: Magnetic nanoparticles can be directed to specific sites using external magnetic fields.
4. pH Sensitivity: Some nanoparticles are designed to release their cargo in response to the acidic environment of certain tissues.
