Abstract

Abstract : Supramolecular vesicles have been constructed based on the host–guest complexation, which show dual-responsiveness and cancer cells targetability. Abstract : Supramolecular vesicles based on the host–guest complexation of ferrocenecarboxylic acid capped pillar[5]arene and a galactose derivative have been constructed, which showed dual-responsiveness and cancer cells targetability resulting from its ferrocenecarboxylic acid units and galactose units, respectively. This work provides a good example for the construction of multifunctional nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery.
