Supramolecular surface modification of viable MDAMB231 × 4 (with CXCR4-linked GFP-Tag) and MDAMB231 cells (without GFP-Tag) in mixed cell culture. Modification was accomplished via specific functionalization of the CXCR4 receptor with Ac-TZ14011-Ad, followed by host-guest interaction between β-CD molecules on fluorescent Cy50.5CD10PIBMA39 or Cy31.5CD72PIBMA389 polymers and the Ad functionality. Functionalization mainly occurs on the CXCR4 overexpressing MDAMB231 × 4 cells. For clarity, both the (overlay) image and the same image at the individual channels are displayed, with GFP in green, Cy5 (Cy50.5CD10PIBMA39) in red, and Cy3 (Cy31.5CD72PIBMA389) in blue.
