Schematic illustration of the three ways of complexation or conjugation of anti-cancer drugs with a dendrimer molecule. (A) Encapsulation of the chemotherapeutic into the internal cavity, (B) surface conjugation of chemotherapeutic onto the peripheral of the dendrimer molecule, and (C) same dendritic molecule can serve a carrier for both encapsulated and surface-conjugated anti-cancer drugs.
