Abstract

In recent years the development of therapies has been impressive. Unfortunately, many of these therapies have presented some limitations, mainly in vivo. Consequently, efforts continue to design drug delivery systems that address these limitations, among which are macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles (MEVs). This is due to their natural characteristics, mainly their surface markers, which enable their function as messengers and their production methods accessible. These features have facilitated their use in developing therapies against cancer and inflammatory diseases, yielding promising results. Therefore, our objective is to highlight why MEVs are emerging as a promising drug delivery strategy.
