Pharmacokinetics and targeting capability of TK-MLP NPs. (A) Representative photographs of blood samples collected from C57BL/6 mice after administration of different nano-materials at various time points. Pharmacokinetic curves of different nano-materials. n = 3. (B) Fluorescence photos and semi-quantitative show the fluorescent signals of Ce6 in aortas from ApoE^−/− mice. ApoE^−/− mice fed with HFD for 2 months were intravenously injected with different NPs. After administration of 12 h, the aortas of ApoE^−/− mice were isolated for detection. n = 3. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001 vs. the LP@Ce6.
