Lipid core nanoparticles resembling low-density lipoprotein and regression of atherosclerotic lesions: effects of particle size

Particles are usually polydispersed and size is an important feature for lipid-based drug delivery systems in order to optimize cell-particle interactions as to pharmacologic action and toxicity. Lipid nanoparticles (LDE) with composition similar to that of low-density lipoprotein carrying paclitaxe...
