Preparation of Photoluminescent Nanorings with Controllable Bioreducibility and Stimuli‐Responsiveness

Abstract

Ring around the rosy: A novel multifunctional disulfide-containing hyperbranched poly(amido amine) that is stimuli-responsive, biocompatible, biodegradable, and photoluminescent can assemble DNA into a well-defined nanoring with strong photoluminescence. The nanoring is stimuli-responsive and the ring wall is biocompatible and controllably bioreducible; it has potential applications in gene and drug delivery, and molecular imaging.
