However, its topical application is hindered by inherent challenges, including high hydrophilicity, poor skin permeability, and limited stability. To address these limitations, we developed elastic cationic liposomal nanogels (EC-Lip-nanogels), a novel delivery system composed of Nap-FF-GHK nanogels and elastic cationic liposomes (EC-Lips). Nap-FF-GHK peptide was synthesized by coupling the self-assembled scaffold Nap-FF with the anti-aging module GHK, which would be self-assembled into cationic nanogels. EC-Lips was constructed by incorporating edge activators (EAs) into cationic liposomes (C-Lips).
