AIE‐based drug/gene delivery system: Evolution from fluorescence monitoring alone to augmented therapeutics

Aggregate, Volume 3, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022
The aggregation‐induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) propel the development of drug and gene delivery systems. The lit‐up AIEgens first serve for real‐time monitoring of the delivery processes and evaluation of therapeutic responses of drug/gene. The delicate design of AIEgens to form high‐level structural carrier remarkably enhances the delivery ...
