Congrats to Chenzhen and Coauthors on the recently published work in Small Methods: “Charge-Reversed Exosomes for Targeted Gene Delivery to Cartilage for Osteoarthritis Treatment”
This work demonstrated that surface-modified cationic exosomes can penetrate through the full thickness of early-stage arthritic cartilage and deliver the encapsulated genetic materials to chondrocytes residing in the tissue’s deep layers for OA treatment. The paper...
Congratulations to Salima for 2024 Huntington 100 Awards!
Please congratulate Salima Amiji for being selected as Huntington 100 inductee [CLICK HERE]! Salima was one of our stellar UG researchers who started as a YSP high school scholar in our lab and was involved in our research works.
Congratulations to Dr. Héctor Millán Cotto! 🎓
Congratulations to Héctor Millán Cotto for completing a successful PhD defense! Hector’s thesis is focused on designing exosomes for gene delivery to the retina via the topical route. All the best to Hector for the future!

Congrats to Hengli and Chenzhen on publishing new work in Biomaterials Science: “Milk exosomes anchored with hydrophilic and zwitterionic motifs enhance mucus permeability for applications in oral gene delivery”
This work demonstrated that surface modification of milk exosomes with zwitterionic peptides ensures particle stability, enhances intestinal mucus permeability, and improves uptake by intestinal epithelial cells. The result suggests the significant potential of...
