Multicompartment systems: A putative carrier for combined drug delivery and targeting

In this review, we discuss recent developments in multicompartment systems commonly referred to as vesosomes, as well as their method of preparation, surface modifications, and clinical potential. Vesosomal systems are able to entrap more than one drug moiety and can be customized for site-specific delivery. We focus in particular on the possible reticuloendothelial system (RES) - mediated accumulation of vesosomes, and their application in tumor targeting, as areas for further investigation.
