Mitochondrion-specific dendritic lipopeptide liposomes for targeted sub-cellular delivery
Mitochondria are key targets for photothermal and photodynamic treatment for cancer but delivery of therapeutics to these organelles remains a challenge. In this study, authors develop a mitochondrial targeted liposomal delivery platform using a dendritic peptide moiety as a mitochondria targeting m...

| Summary: | Mitochondria are key targets for photothermal and photodynamic treatment for cancer but delivery of therapeutics to these organelles remains a challenge. In this study, authors develop a mitochondrial targeted liposomal delivery platform using a dendritic peptide moiety as a mitochondria targeting moiety and demonstrate its targeting and antitumour efficacy in a mouse model of breast cancer. |
