摘要
Key challenges in the development of drug delivery systems are the prevention of serum compartment interaction and the targeted delivery of the cargo. Layer-by-Layer microcarriers offer many advantages due to various options in drug assembly and multifunctional design. Surface modification with a supported lipid membrane enhances biocompatibility, drug protection ability, and specific functionality. However, the integration of functionalized lipids strongly influences the membrane formation and is often accompanied by submicrometer irregularities: The accessibility of underlying polymers to serum components may change the carriers properties and enhances the susceptibility to opsonization. Therefore, the formation of a tightly assembled multifunctional lipid membrane has been emphasized. A phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine (POPS/POPC) bilayer equipped with phosphatidylethanolamine-polyethylene glycol-biotin (PE-PEG-Biotin) was used to facilitate a biotin/streptavidin binding site for a variable attachment of an additional function, such as antibodies for specific targeting. Thus, a prefunctionalized carrier where only the outer functionality needs to be replaced without disturbing the underlying structure could be created.
