Abstract:
      I-motif,as a novel pH-sensitive element,has attracted extensive attention and research upsurge in the field of biomedicine due to its ability of fast conformation alteration at different pH conditions,as well as the advantages of automatic synthesis,excellent biocompatibility and flexible functional integration.In this review,the basic performances of i-motif are firstly described.Then,the applications of i-motif-based nanosystems in biomedical field are reviewed from three aspects of cellular pH imaging,pH-controlled drugs release and pH-responsive tumor theranostics applications.Finally,some of the current challenges of the i-motif-based nanosystems for the biomedical applications are pointed out,and an insight into the future prospects of i-motif-based nanosystems for precision medicine is provided.
