Hydrogels have a three-dimensional structure of polymer chains composed hydrophilic end groups. The aim this review is to show how polyelectrolytes emerged as promising and innovative toolkit for delivering targeting therapeutic bioactive substances. Also, here the most relevant contributions related hydrogel systems based on are presented, highlighting these their main characteristics applicat...

Biomedicine is typically defined as the branch of medicine that is based on the principles of biology and biochemistry. A central tenet for biomedicine is the notion of disease and therapeutic specificity, i.e. the idea of tailored treatments for discrete disorders underpinned by specific pathologies. The present paper is concerned with how notions of disease and therapeutic specificity guide b...
