Glutathione-responsive paclitaxel dimer nanovesicles with high drug content†
Abstract
Paclitaxel dimer-based nanovesicles, with an ultrahigh drug content, have been prepared through a nanoprecipitation method. The as-formed nanovesicles exhibit improved paclitaxel solubility, prominent colloid stability, GSH-triggered disassembly, effective cellular uptake and comparable cytotoxicity to Taxol.
