Graphic summarizing biological barriers for drug delivery for various delivery routes including lung, skin, nasal, brain, eye. Physio-Anatomical Barriers (e.g. lungs, eye, skin, nasal) Extracellular Barriers (e.g. mucus, baterial biofilms - diagram shows goblet cell, basement membrane, mucus layer, brush border, ciliated cells) Molecular barriers (e.g. pharm. macromol. processing, stability, excipients) Cellular barriers (e.g. gene delivery, plasma membrane, connectosomes - illustration shows connectosome and gap junction; photo shows CRO dye, brightfield, and merge)
