North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NC A&T) received a $499,488 project grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083). The award will support research from August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2026 to develop and investigate thermo-sensitive liposomes for applications in biosensing and downstream diagnostic applications. Specifically, NC A&T researchers will determine if compositional differences in cell-derived model exosomes can induce stimuli-responsive behavior. They will also engineer thermo-responsive exosomes through selective surface modification and validate their potential use in biosensing. The goal is to define criteria for achieving differential release of exosome populations and contents to replace burdensome purification and isolation protocols. This work aims to advance how exosomes are manipulated by introducing a new mechanism to control their behavior selectively.
