Description

Yuelin Zhang and co-authors cloak a gene cargo in cell membrane to treat artery plaque in a 2025 study. Plaque growth can choke arteries and trigger heart attacks, and sound based popping of tiny gas sacs offers a gentle way to break plaque up.

Their vesicles fuse immune cell membrane with fat bubbles, keeping a grip protein that homes to inflamed vessel walls. Inside rides a plasmid that makes a clot dissolving drug and the gas sac parts. Sound pops the sacs at the plaque, while the drug clears debris and calms swelling. In mice, the cloaked set plus sound shrank plaque most.
