Engineering thermoresponsive polyether-based nanogels for temperature dependent skin penetration

Abstract

Highly biocompatible thermoresponsive nanogels (tNGs) based on oligo ethylene glycol (OEG) as thermoresponsive unit and dendritic polyglycerol (dPG) as cross-linker, were precisely engineered in terms of size and volume phase transition temperature (VPTT). Preliminary uptake studies into human skin were realized to show the temperature-dependent internalization behavior of these systems.
