摘要 |
A nanotube device comprises a gel matrix that includes microcapsules and functionalized nanotubes, or other functionalized nanostructures incorporated into said gel matrix. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment comprising same. The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention enable the specific and targeted delivery of therapeutic agents such as DNA molecules, peptides, including antibodies, drug molecules (e.g. small organic molecules), while offering sufficient resistance towards mucus layer of the intestine and high concentrations of enzymes and other molecules found in the blood stream and the GI tract.
