DNA hydrogels are biocompatible drug delivery systems for targeted therapeutic interventions. Conventional DNA hydrogels, formed with many DNA nanostructure units, lead to increased preparation costs and design complexities. To address this, researchers from Japan constructed a Takumi-shaped DNA nanostructure with minimal DNA units and optimized its structure for improved in vivo retention abilities and sustained drug release. This study presents a promising DNA-based drug delivery system, which can potentially improve patient outcomes.
