Description

Chowdhury and Goswami offer a 2023 review on ring-shaped hosts that can carry drugs. A weak immune system lies at the root of many ills, and small drug doses must reach the right tissue fast. Host rings can trap a drug, hold a good load, and let it go at the target. Two host types are the focus here.

One host is a barrel-shaped ring, and the other is a pillar-shaped ring. The review covers how drugs bind, load, and release from each host. It also covers self-built carriers and host use with proteins. Uses range from cancer drugs to insulin for youth diabetes. Open questions and next steps close the review.
