Researchers from Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University Report on Findings in Cancer Gene Therapy (Liposomes, The Attractive Vehicles for Drug Delivery: A Scientometric Mapping of Web of Science Indexed Literature).

A report from researchers at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University in Saudi Arabia discusses the use of liposomes as a drug delivery system in cancer gene therapy. Liposomes are spherical vesicles composed of phospholipid bilayers that can fuse with cell membranes to deliver their contents. The study analyzed 629 research papers on liposomes as drug delivery between 1980 and 2021, using scientometric methods to assess research growth, prolific authors, funding agencies, and more. The findings highlight the importance of liposomes and cationic liposomes as research themes, as well as areas that require further attention in the field. [Extracted from the article]
