Popis: Viral infection patterns often rely on precisely coordinated sequences of distinct ligand-receptor interactions, leading in many cases to an outstanding target cell specificity. A successful mimicry of viral targeting strategies to create more site-specific nanoparticles (NPs) would therefore require particle-cell interactions to also be adequately controllable. In the present study, hetero-multivalent block-copolymer NPs present their attached ligands in a sterically controlled manner to create a sequential NP-cell interaction similar to the cell infiltration strategy of human adenovirus type 2. Targeting renal mesangial cells, particles therefore initially bind angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1r) on the cell surface via a structurally flexible AT1r antagonist. After a mandatory spatial approach, particle endocytosis is realized via binding of immobile α
