Cholesterol levels affect the performance of aunps-decorated thermo-sensitive liposomes as nanocarriers for controlled doxorubicin delivery

Stimulus-responsive liposomes (L) for triggering drug release to the target site are particularly useful in cancer therapy. This research was focused on the evaluation of the effects of cholesterol levels in the performance of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-functionalized L for controlled doxorubicin (D...
