From: Nucleic acid functionalized extracellular vesicles as promising therapeutic systems for nanomedicine
Figure 1. Function and mechanism of nucleic acid in nanomedicine. Nucleic acid has the characteristics of targeting (aptamer), immune regulation (CpG OND), drug delivery (molecular beacon or DNA origami), and gene editing (CRISPR/Cas9). CRISPR/Cas9: Cluster regularly spaced short palindromic repeats-associated protein 9.
