Micro/Nanomotors Actively Penetrate Physiological Barriers: Basic Nanoarchitectonics to Practical Application (Adv. Mater. 6/2026)

Key Points

Micro/nanomotors successfully penetrate physiological barriers, which enhances drug delivery efficiency.
Key advances include structural design innovations that improve the movement of micro/nanomotors.
Systematic analysis of challenges faced in clinical settings reinforces the importance of micromotors in medicine.
Future trends suggest a potential shift in drug delivery methodologies that may rely heavily on micro/nanomotor technology.

Abstract

Self-Propelled Micro/Nanomotors The Review by Yingfeng Tu and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202508865) focuses on the advances of self-propelled micro/nanomotors (MNMs) in breaking through the limitations of passive drug delivery systems in penetrating physiological barriers. This review systematically examines the structural design of MNMs, the types of physiological barriers, along with clinical challenges and future trends.
