Arginine-α, β-dehydrophenylalanine Dipeptide Nanoparticles for pH-Responsive Drug Delivery

Purpose Nanoparticles (NPs) exhibiting responsiveness towards pH variations in organs, tissue microenvironments and cellular compartments can significantly add on to the drug delivery potential. Here, we have developed NPs from an amphipathic dipeptide, Arginine-α, β-dehydrophenylalanine (RΔF), and tried to explore their pH responsive drug delivery potential in various cancer cells.
