Exosomes, as natural vehicles for intercellular communication, are biocompatible and well-targeted, enabling the effective protection and delivery of nucleic acid drugs. CD Formulation offers an exosome drug delivery platform that combines advanced technology with extensive research and development experience, focusing on the use of exosomes as an innovative drug delivery vehicle.
Exosomes are membrane-bound vesicles containing a variety of components that play roles in both biological and pathological processes. Since their discovery, they have been utilized as diagnostic biomarkers and potential drug delivery vehicles, facilitating the transfer of biological materials to recipient cells based on their size and functional capabilities. The characteristics of exosomes, including biocompatibility, tumor-targeting preference, adjustable targeting efficiency, and stability, render them appealing carriers for a range of diseases and cancer therapies.

This method involves co-incubating drugs with exosomes or exosome donor cells, facilitating the entry of drugs into the exosomes or their secretion by the exosome donor cells that contain the loaded drugs.
Active encapsulation employs mechanical techniques to temporarily and reversibly disrupt the exosome membrane, facilitating drug entry. Common methods include sonication, electroporation, freeze-thaw cycles, co-extrusion, and the use of surfactants.
CD Formulation is committed to offering an advanced exosome delivery platform designed to address the delivery requirements of various nucleic acid drugs, including antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), messenger RNA (mRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), and microRNA (miRNA). Our technology platform is founded on the principles of efficiency, precision, and safety, and it develops multiple innovative solutions for the effective delivery and targeted release of nucleic acid drugs in vivo, significantly improving therapeutic outcomes.
Items | Descriptions |
---|---|
Delivery of ASOs Drugs | Exosomes can stabilize ASOs in vivo, making them less susceptible to degradation and facilitating specific binding to target mRNA. This process ultimately reduces or suppresses the expression of pathological proteins. |
Delivery of mRNA Drugs | Exosomes protect mRNA from degradation by in vivo enzymes and facilitate its effective entry into target cells, enabling successful transcription and expression of therapeutic proteins within the cells. |
Delivery of siRNA Drugs | Exosome-mediated siRNA delivery effectively prevents degradation in vivo and ensures precise entry into target cells, resulting in specific gene silencing and therapeutic effects. |
Delivery of miRNA Drugs | The exosome delivery platform can efficiently transport miRNA into target cells, thereby regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. This method holds potential applications in the treatment of various diseases. |
Through customized services and precise target optimization, CD Formulation is dedicated to enhancing the effective delivery of nucleic acid drugs. We offer comprehensive support and solutions in areas such as gene therapy and vaccine development. Our exosome delivery platform emphasizes exosome development and aims to provide innovative drug delivery solutions for the biopharmaceutical industry.
