Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the uptake of lipoplexes by villous placenta explants

Controlled distribution of a drug by its association to a nanocarrier is a promising approach for the treatment of pregnancy disorders such as preeclampsia. For this application, tracking both the nanocarrier and the drug is necessary to ensure the safety of both the mother and the foetus. This study reports a method to visualize and quantify the uptake of liposomal formulations in placental tissue using florescent labelling and appropriate...
