ABSTRACT
Microbubbles with diagnostic ultrasound have had a long history of use in the medical field. In recent years, the therapeutic application of the combination of microbubbles and ultrasound, called sonoporation, has received increased attention as microbubble oscillation or collapse close to various barriers in the body was recognized to potentially open those barriers, increasing drug transport across them. In this review, we aimed to describe the development of lipid-stabilized microbubbles equipped with functions, such as long circulation and drug loading, and the therapeutic application of sonoporation for tumor-targeted therapy, brain-targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. We also attempted to discuss the current status of the field and potential future developments.
