Abstract

(Figure Presented) Open Sesame! A synthetic approach to stimuli-responsive polymer nanocapsules has been developed. The reductively labile polymer nanocapsule allows for not only facile, noncovalent surface modification but also the release of encapsulated cargo in response to a predefined redox stimulus in an intracellular environment.
