The development of DNA nanotechnology has attracted tremendous attention in biotechnological and biomedical fields involving biosensing, bioimaging and disease therapy. In particular, precise control over size and shape, easy modification, excellent programmability and inherent homology make the sophisticated DNA nanostructures vital for constructing intelligent drug carriers. Recent advances in the design of multifunctional DNA-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) have demonstrated the effectiveness and advantages of DNA nanostructures, showing the unique benefits and great potential in enhancing the delivery of pharmaceutical compounds and reducing systemic toxicity. This Review aims to overview the latest researches on DNA nanotechnology-enabled nanomedicine and give a perspective on their future opportunities.
