Nowadays, biomaterials are widely used in medicine and the medical care fields, playing increasingly important roles due to their unique structure and excellent performance. In particular, biomedical materials exhibit good biocompatibility and biodegradability, which allow for their design in drug delivery to the human body.Biomedical materials as anticancer drug carriers can be implemented in targeted drug delivery in the human body, improve the utilization rate of the cancer drug effects, and largely reduce the side effects of anticancer drugs on normal human body cell tissue. In addition, the drug carrier can also effectively improve the properties and stability of anticancer drugs in tissues, enhance the slow release of drugs, and reduce the lack of drug use in the body. Moreover, advancements in biomaterials have improved the safety and efficacy of diagnostic, therapeutic, and theranostic approaches for various diseases. The structures and interactions between biomaterials and drugs can influence the pesticide effect and have the potential to affect cellular physiology due to the close relationship between biological systems and biomaterial features. Drug delivery systems can also provide novel solutions by developing desirable and ideal materials to control the physicochemical, biological, structural, and mechanical microenvironments for successful drug delivery.This Special Issue focuses on biomaterials, including, but not limited to, natural materials, composite materials, functionalized nanomaterials, hydrogels, etc., for different drug delivery applications.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...
  • Advances in Flavivirus Research
    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

  • Brain Asymmetry of Structure and/or Function
    Lesley J. Rogers / Lesley JRogers
    This edited book brings together research reports on the asymmetry of brain function in various species, including humans, dogs, birds, lizards and bees. As shown in a wide range of species, and, as we now know, not solely in humans, the left and right sides of the brain process information in different ways and control different responses or patterns of behaviour. Since this d...

  • The Epithelialto- Mesenchymal Transition ( EMT ) in Cancer
    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...

  • The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
