Abstract
The continued emergence and spread of drug-resistant pathogens and the decline in the approval of new antimicrobial drugs pose a major threat to managing infectious diseases, resulting in high morbidity and mortality. Even though a significant variety of antibiotics can effectively cure many bacterial infectious diseases, microbial infections remain one of the biggest global health problems, which may be due to the traditional drug delivery system�s shortcomings which lead to poor therapeutic index, low drug absorption, and numerous other drawbacks. Further, the use of traditional antibiotics to treat infectious diseases has always been accompanied by the emergence of multidrug resistance and adverse side effects. Despite developing numerous new antibiotics, nanomaterials, and various techniques to combat infectious diseases, they have persisted as major global health issues. Improving the current antibiotic delivery systems is a promising approach to solving many life-threatening infections. In this context, nanoliposomal systems have recently attracted much attention. Herein, we attempt to provide a concise summary of recent studies that have used liposomal nanoparticles as delivery systems for antibacterial medicines. The minireview also highlights the enormous potential of liposomal nanoparticles as antibiotic delivery systems. The future of these promising approaches lies in developing more efficient delivery systems by precisely targeting bacterial cells with antibiotics with minimum cytotoxicity and high bacterial combating efficacy. © 2023 The Authors.
