Hyaluronic Acid Nanoparticles as Nanomedicine for Treatment of Inflammatory Diseases

Owing to their unique biological functions, hyaluronic acid (HA) and its derivatives have been explored extensively for biomedical applications such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, and molecular imaging. In particular, self-assembled HA nanoparticles (HA-NPs) have been used widely as target-sp...
