Cationic liposomes

Cationic liposomes are tiny, spherical structures made from lipids (fats) that carry a positive charge. They are used in medicine and biotechnology to deliver drugs and genes into cells. The positive charge helps them bind easily to negatively charged cell membranes, allowing the liposomes to merge with the cells and release their contents. This delivery method enhances the effectiveness of treatments, especially for vaccines and genetic therapies. Their unique properties make cationic liposomes a valuable tool in research and therapeutics, helping improve how we treat various diseases.
