Description

Tianhang Yang and nine co-authors review tiny bubbles shed by plants as a drug delivery tool, in a 2025 paper. The bubbles, much like those from animal cells, carry proteins, fats, and genetic scraps inside a fatty skin.

Their cargo naturally steers the cell's redox balance, the balance between damaging oxygen species and defenses. The skin protects fragile cargo and helps cells take it up, with little immune reaction. The review covers how the bubbles form, what they carry, and how they are collected. It proposes that each bubble leans either calming or provoking on the redox scale. Uses range from wound healing to cancer, and the authors weigh the hurdles of making them at scale.
