Figure 7

Schematic representation of how stimuli-responsive mesoporous materials work. The gatekeepers close the pore entrances and avoid premature release until some specific stimulus is applied. The stimuli can be applied from inside (e.g., pH, redox species, enzymes) or outside the patient (e.g., light, US, magnetic fields).
