What Strategies Are Used to Achieve Immune Tolerance?
Several strategies are employed to induce immune tolerance to nanoparticles:
1. Surface Modification: Coating nanoparticles with polymers such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) can help evade immune detection. 2. Biomimicry: Designing nanoparticles to mimic natural biological structures can reduce immune recognition. 3. Immune Modulation: Using immune-modulating agents that can either dampen the immune response or induce specific tolerance to the nanoparticle.
