Effect of Receptor Structure and Length on the Wrapping of a Nanoparticle by a Lipid Membrane
Nanoparticles have been considered as a type of powerful tool to deliver drugs and genes into cells for disease diagnosis and therapies. It has been generally accepted that the internalization of nanoparticles into cells is mostly realized by receptor-mediated endocytosis. However, for the influence...
