We prepared liposomes using the thin-lipid-film-hydration method following previous publications [17 (link),18 (link)]. In brief, the lipids were dissolved in dichloromethane (Daejung, Siheung-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea), and the solvent was removed. Then, the film of lipids was dispersed in the distilled water containing doxorubicin hydrochloride (LC laboratories, Woburn, MA, USA) by sonication. Then, removal of unloaded doxorubicin was done through dialysis for one hour. We analyzed the amount of doxorubicin in the liposomes by measuring the fluorescence of doxorubicin (490/570 nm) after liposomes were completely disassembled by Triton X-100 (Samchun, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea).
