Abstract
Provided herein are encapsulated liposomes comprising a lipid bilayer, a first polyethylene glycol (PEG) corona, a targeting molecule and a second PEG corona. The second, encapsulating PEG corona can be reversibly linked to the first PEG corona. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the encapsulated liposomes and methods of treating a subject with a disease characterized by production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the compositions. Also provided are methods of making the encapsulated liposomes disclosed herein.
Claims13
An encapsulated liposome comprising
- (a) a lipid bilayer with a first polyethylene glycol (PEG) corona, wherein the first PEG corona further comprises a targeting molecule, and
- (b) a second PEG corona reversibly linked to the first PEG corona, wherein the reversible links comprise a boronic ester bond.
