Abstract
Liposomes are widely used in the biological field due to their good biocompatibility and surface modification properties. With the development of biochemistry and material science, many liposome structures and their surface functional components have been modified and optimized one by one, pushing the liposome platform from traditional to functionalized and intelligent, which will better satisfy and expand the needs of scientific research. However, a main limiting factor effecting the efficiency of liposomes is the complicated environmental conditions in the living body. Currently, in order to overcome the above problem, functionalized liposomes have become a very promising strategy. In this paper, binding strategies of liposomes with four main functional elements, namely nucleic acids, antibodies, peptides, and stimuli-responsive motif have been summarized for the first time. In addition, based on the construction characteristics of functionalized liposomes, such as drug-carrying, targeting, long-circulating, and stimulus-responsive properties, a comprehensive overview of their features and respective research progress are presented. Finally, the paper critically presents the limitations of these functionalized liposomes in the current applications and also prospectively suggests the future development directions, aiming to accelerate realization of their industrialization.

Abstract
Therapeutically active lipids in drug delivery systems offer customization for enhanced pharmaceutical and biological effects, improving safety and efficacy. Biologically active N, N-didodecyl-3,4-dimethoxy-N-methylbenzenaminium lipid (Q) was synthesized and employed to create a liposome formulation (FQ) encapsulating melphalan (M) through a thin film hydration method. Synthesized cationic lipids and their liposomal formulation underwent characterization and assessment for additive anti-cancer effects on myeloma and melanoma cancer cell lines. These effects were evaluated through various studies, including cytotoxicity assessments, cell cycle arrest analysis, apoptosis measurements, mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization, DNA fragmentation, and a significant reduction in tumorigenic potential, as evidenced by a decrease in both the number and percentage area of cancer spheroids.

Abstract
Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) can be broadly defined as relatively short synthetic, protein derived or chimeric peptides. Their most remarkable property is their ability to cross cell barriers and facilitate the translocation of cargo, such as drugs, nucleic acids, peptides, small molecules, dyes, and many others across the plasma membrane. Over the years there have been several approaches used, adapted, and developed for the evaluation of CPP efficacies as delivery systems, with the fluorophore attachment as the most widely used approach. It has become progressively evident, that the evaluation method, in order to lead to successful outcome, should concede with the specialties of the delivery. For characterization and assessment of CPP-cargo a combination of research tools of chemistry, physics, molecular biology, engineering, and other fields have been applied. In this review, we summarize the diverse, in silico, in vitro and in vivo approaches used for evaluation and characterization of CPP-based cargo delivery systems.
