title: Self-assembled vesicles of urea-tethered foldamers as hydrophobic drug carriers.
abstract: Molecular self-assembly of nonamphiphilic α,β-hybrid foldamers based on urea-tethered anthranilic acid-proline (Ant-Pro) foldamers is reported. These self-assembled hollow vesicular architectures can take up and release the anticancer hydrophobic drug curcumin.
