Mechanisms of transport of polymeric and lipidic nanoparticles across the intestinal barrier

Unraveling the mechanisms of nanoparticle transport across the intestinal barrier is essential for designing more efficient nanoparticles for oral administration. The physicochemical parameters of the nanoparticles (e.g., size, surface charge, chemical composition) dictate nanoparticle fate across the intestinal barrier. This review aims to address the most important findings regarding polymeric and lipidic nanoparticle transport across the intestinal barrier, including the evaluation of critical physicochemical parameters of nanoparticles that affect nanocarrier interactions with the intestinal barrier.
