pH-triggered blooming of ‘nano-flowers’ for tumor intracellular drug delivery

Abstract

With the decrease in pH value, the ‘nano-flower’ exhibited a half-open state to expose the target ligands on the surface under tumor acidic conditions and fully bloomed to release Dox under endosomal acidic conditions.
