ABSTRACT
Polymeric nanoparticles assembled from the amphiphilic graft copolymer with cyclic benzylidene acetal-functionalized backbone and short poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) side chains can remain structurally stable at pH 7.4, but undergo stepwise disassembly in mildly acidic conditions due to the acid-triggered cleavage of the acetals, providing a promising nanocarrier for cancer therapy.
