Laser Ablation System Enables Transdermal Drug Delivery
KUMAMOTO, Japan, Aug. 17, 2017 — A novel transdermal protein delivery system for protein-based drugs uses photothermal ablation to increase the permeability of the skin by heating and perturbing the first skin layer, so that the drug can be delivered through via a skin patch. Currently the most effective method for protein-based drug delivery is through injection. To enhance protein permeability into the skin, researchers prepared a transparent gel patch with gold nanorods on the gel surface and fluorescently labeled
