Interfacial Denaturation at the Droplet Simplifies the Formation of Drug-Loaded Protein Nanocapsules to Enhance Immune Response of Cells.

Nanocapsules enable multicomponent encapsulation of therapeutic cargoes with high encapsulation content and efficiency, which is vital for cancer immunotherapy. In the past, chemical crosslinking is used to synthesize nanocapsules, which can impede the regulatory approval process. Therefore, a new class of protein nanocapsules is developed by eliminating the need for chemical crosslinking by utilizing protein denaturation through a process that is referred to as "baking at the droplet interface".
