Abstract
Benefiting from fusion element (peptides or proteins) anchoring, several biological membrane vesicles or synthetic liposomes have great potency to fuse with the target cell membrane via virus-mimetic behavior. When this process happens, the encapsulated cargos can be released directly into the cytoplasm together with membrane component (protein receptor, channel proteins, chemical receptors, antibodies) transfer, a process that facilitates cellular/molecular diagnosis and therapy.
