The development of acidic pH-responsive degradable amphiphilic block copolymers (ABPs) and their nanoassemblies has been extensively explored as a promising platform for tumor-targeting drug delivery and cancer therapy. Despite tremendous advances, most acidic pH-degradable ABP nanoassemblies have been designed with acid-labile groups positioned in a sing ...

Nitric oxide (NO) plays a critical role as an important signaling molecule for a variety of biological functions, particularly inhibiting cell proliferation or killing target pathogens. To deliver active radical NO gaseous molecule whose half-life is a few seconds in a stable state, the design and development of effective exogenous NO supply nanocarriers ...

Acid-degradable (or acid-cleavable) polymeric nanoassemblies have witnessed significant progress in anti-cancer drug delivery. However, conventional nanoassemblies designed with acid-cleavable linkages at a single location have several challenges, such as, sluggish degradation, undesired aggregation of degraded products, and difficulty in controlled and o ...
