The present application discloses a magnetic nanosystem comprising magnetoliposomes and a method to produce the magnetoliposomes. Magnetoliposomes are nanocarriers based on liposomes entrapping magnetic nanoparticles. They consist in an inner magnetic core, either a cluster of nanoparticles or a magnetic fluid, covered by a lipid bilayer. The magnetoliposomes can be loaded with one type, or more than one type of molecules, particularly therapeutic drugs that will be released according to the specific disease target, particularly a cancer. In this sense the lipid composition of the bilayer can be manipulated according to the cancer family type to be treated and microenvironment specific requirements. |
