Description	Targeted drug delivery systems hold great promise as potential therapeutic strategies against cancer, as they preferentially accumulate at tumor sites and reduce drug-related adverse effects. Among nano-sized systems, cell membrane-coated nanoparticles 76have emerged as a new class of biomimetic strategies, which combine the technological advantages of nanomaterials with the stealth and biocompatibility characteristics of cellular membranes. Several sources of cell membranes (including erythrocytes, leukocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, platelet, and cancer cells) and their association with targeting ligands have been explored to shield nanoparticles, assessing the high versatility of cell membrane-mimetic nanoparticles. This chapter addresses the most recent advances in cell membrane based nanosystems, highlighting their ability to increase nanoparticle circulation, promote an active targeting strategy, or trigger a desired immunity reaction against tumor cells.
