Graphical Abstract:
Macrophages play an important role in the pathological development of different diseases. Therefore, macrophage targeting represents an important challenge in design of new medicines. This review gives a general presentation of small molecule-recognition concepts used for macrophage targeting. It describes mechanisms and systems for macrophage-targeted delivery, their obtaining and application.
