Abstract To date, only few a types of nanomedicines have been made available for clinical use even in the most common liposomal delivery systems, due to significant constraints, including poor targeting of specific cells, hindered penetration, and accelerated clearance. Various intricate designs have been generated and show improvements, while also bringing new problems. Biological cells, possessing advantages like low immunogenicity, long circulation time, receptors integration, and innate targeting capability. Herein, liposomes are innovatively functionalized with a stem cell membrane through a facile approach. The biomimetic vesicles achieve controlled release, exhibit better stability, longer circulation time, and targeted delivery. Loading with curcumin leads to enhanced survival rate of ischemic stroke mice with a single injection (from ≈30% to over 90%). The versatility of the method is verified by differently charged liposomes modification and erythrocyte membrane derived vesicles preparation. Overall, the cell membrane derived biomimetic vesicles achieve targeted delivery and versatility prepared by a facile approach, as well as effortless preparation.
