A recent review paper

We have just published a review paper in Pharmaceutical Research -journal that discusses LAT1 (L-type amino acid transporter 1) as a drug carrier. The paper was part of Dr. Elena Puris Ph.D. thesis, and after all, went even beyond what was written in her thesis. Basically, it discusses not only the opportunities of utilizing LAT1 for improved or targeted drug delivery but also challenges related to the LAT1-mediated drug delivery. From the following link, you can get to the free PMC article:


Elena was a Ph.D. student in my research group during the years 2016-2019 and graduated in September 2019. Last August she greatly defended her thesis as Prof. Mikko Niemi as an opponent. And according to tradition, we had a nice after-party. It was also awesome to see some traditions from Elena's home country. Cheers to Elena!
