Self-assembled vesicles of urea-tethered foldamers as hydrophobic drug carriers

Abstract

Molecular self-assembly of nonamphiphilic α,β-hybrid foldamers based on urea-tethered anthranilic acid–proline (Ant–Pro) foldamers is reported. These self-assembled hollow vesicular architectures can take up and release the anticancer hydrophobic drug curcumin.
