Cellular internalization of bystander nanomaterial induced by TAT-nanoparticles and regulated by extracellular cysteine
To enter the cells, nanomaterials often need covalent conjugation with cell-penetrating ligands such as TAT. Here, the authors show that simple mixing with TAT-coupled nanoparticles enables the cellular uptake of unfunctionalized nanoparticles, and its activity is stimulated by cysteine in the mediu...
