Cell membrane-coated human hair nanoparticles for precise disease therapies.

ABSTRACT: Precision medicine is the ultimate goal for current disease therapies, including tumor and infection. The lack of specific targeted drugs for liver cancer and the lack of specific anti-infective drugs in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer with infection (DFI) are the representative obstacles in those 2 major diseases currently plaguing human beings. Inventing natural biocompatible polymers derived from natural materials is one of the main development directions of current bio-medical materials. Though previous studies have demonstrated the potential application values of human black hair-derived nanoparticles (HNP) in cancer, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection, and thrombosis scenarios treatments, it still has not solved the problem of low local therapeutic conc
