Fliposomes: stimuli-triggered conformational flip of novel amphiphiles causes an instant cargo release from liposomes

This review presents a new strategy for the design of stimuli-responsive liposomes for targeted delivery – the construction of a liposome membrane (lipid bilayer) using amphiphiles able to perform a stimuli-triggered conformational flip (‘flipids’). When done simultaneously by a major or significant...
