Figure 6. Schematic illustration showing the interactions of NPs and cell membrane.

Figure 6

Up, the cell membrane interacts with (Left) L-PAV-AuNPs and (Right) D-PAV-AuNPs, respectively. The double L-lipid bilayers have a stronger interaction with the D-PAV molecules, and thereby the internalized amount of D-PAV-AuNPs is larger. Bottom, the diagram of structure of L-lipid and L(D)-PAV-AuNPs.
