Nano-Layered Microneedles for Transcutaneous Delivery of Polymer Nanoparticles and Plasmid DNA

Multilayer-coated microneedles achieve transcutaneous delivery of plasmid DNA to the viable epidermis. Cy3-labeled plasmid DNA encoding luciferase (yellow) is deposited on biodegradable microneedle arrays through multilayer self-assembly and then delivered to the skin by microneedle application to a...
