Abstract

In article number 1800941, Woosung Kwon, Sei Kwang Hahn, Chulhong Kim, and co-workers describe hyaluronate–silica-nanoparticle (HA–SiNP) conjugates for liver-specific delivery and imaging. The HA–SiNP conjugates show high liver-specific targeting efficiency, strong optical absorbance in near-infrared windows, excellent biocompatibility, and biodegradability. The liver-specific targeting efficiency is verified by in vitro cellular uptake tests, and in vivo and ex vivo photoacoustic imaging.
