Photo, pH, and thermo triple-responsive spiropyran-based copolymer nanoparticles for controlled release.

A spiropyran-based amphiphilic random copolymer was synthesized and self-assembled into photo-, pH-, and thermo-responsive micellar nanoparticles. The triple-stimuli triggered morphological changes of the nanoparticles were revealed by TEM and DLS. Highly efficient controlled release of encapsulated molecules, coumarin 102, from the nanoparticles under stimulation of UV light, acid and the comb...

Gold clusters with controlled sizes have been prepared by controlled self-assembly of citrate stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with temperature-responsive luminescent amphiphilic dendrimers (Den 40) of oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) core branches and oligo(ethylene oxide) terminal chains. The shape and size of the resultant gold clusters depend strongly on the molar ratio of Den 40 to AuNPs. ...

State of the art of stimuli-responsive liposomes for cancer therapy

Specific delivery of therapeutic agents to solid tumors and their bioavailability at the target site are the most clinically important and challenging goals in cancer therapy. Liposomes are promising nanocarriers and have been well investigated for cancer therapy. In spite of preferred accumulation in tumors via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, inefficient drug release at t...
