Configurable microscopic medical payload delivery device to deliver medically therapeutic payloads to specifically targeted cell types

Abstract

The innovative strategy of treatment described here utilizes configurable microscopic medical payload delivery devices to act as a transport mechanism to deliver medically therapeutic payloads to specific cell types in the body. Utilizing probes on the exterior of the configurable microscopic medical payload delivery devices, these transport devices locate specific types of target cells in the body. Once a specific target cell is encountered and engaged, the configurable microscopic medical payload delivery device inserts its payload into the target cell. These medically therapeutic payloads are intended to improve cell function or the longevity of the cell or eliminate cells that pose a hazard to the general health of the body. By utilizing configurable microscopic medical payload delivery devices as a delivery system, the efficacy of medications and biologic tools are dramatically improved and there is a resultant significant reduction in the occurrence of unwanted side effects.
