title: Strategies for cytosolic delivery of liposomal macromolecules.
abstract: Potential approaches to achieve cytosolic delivery of liposomal macromolecules are presented. These approaches include: (1) the co-encapsulation of fusogenic peptides into targeted drug-containing liposomes (2) coupling of the HIV-1-derived cell-penetrating peptide TAT to the surface of liposomes and (3) photochemical internalization, based on photochemically inducible permeabilization of endocytic vesicles.
