Abstract: Synthetic vesicles of amphiphilic Janus dendrimers are known as dendrimersomes. The understanding of the conditions and formation mechanism of dendrimersomes is meaningful for further controlling the structures. Herein, the characteristics of the self-assembly of amphiphilic… read more here.

Abstract: Significance Lipid vesicles are globular assemblies that compartmentalize, encapsulate, transport, and provide signal transmission and communication between cells. In living systems, these vesicles perform critical functions to sustain life. Biomimetic lipid vesicles, such as liposomes,… read more here.
