description This review highlights the utilization of dendron-polymer conjugates as building blocks for the fabrication of nanosized drug delivery vehicles. The examples given provide an overview of the evolution of these delivery platforms, from simple micellar containers to smart stimuli- responsive drug delivery systems through their design at the macromolecular level. Variations in chemical composition and connectivity of the dendritic and polymeric segments provide a variety of self-assembled micellar nanostructures that embody desirable attributes of viable drug delivery systems.
