Calming the Cytokine Storm in Pneumonia by Biomimetic Nanoparticles

Recently, the Wang group at Soochow University and the Gu group at the University of California, Los Angeles demonstrated the targeting ability of platelet-derived extracellular vesicles to deliver anti-inflammatory drug [5-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-ureido] thiophene-3-carboxamide (TPCA-1) to pneumonia for calming the local cytokine storm in acute lung injury.
