The strategy of “in vivo self-assembly”, which is defined as in situ construction of functional nanomaterials in living subjects to explore new biological effects, is summarized by Zeng-Ying Qiao, Lei Wang, Hao Wang, and Li-Li Li in article number 1804971. The modular design platform automatic senses the targeting physiological microenvironment and constructs defined nanostructures in vivo. These dynamically assembled delivery platforms exhibit the assembly/aggregationinduced retention (AIR) effect, resulting in an enhanced targeting efficiency, which will further be applied in clinical high-performance drug delivery and bioimaging.
