Abstract

The inside front cover is a schematic representation of an anticancer platelet-mimicking drug-delivery system described by Z. Gu and co-workers on page 7043. The platelet membrane-coated nanovehicles can inhibit primary tumor growth, and also eliminate circulating tumor cells through sequential delivery of plasma membrane-associated cytokine and intracellularly functional small-molecule drugs.
