Abstract
Rapid proliferation of cancer cells assisted by endothelial cell-mediated angiogenesis and acquired inflammation at the tumor microenvironment (TME) lowers the success rate of chemotherapeutic regimens. Therefore, targeting these processes using localized delivery of a minimally toxic drug combination may be a promising strategy. Here, we present engineering of a biocompatible self-assembled lithocholic acid-dipeptide derived hydrogel (TRI-Gel) that can maintain sustained delivery of antiproliferating doxorubicin, antiangiogenic combretastatin-A4 and anti-inflammatory dexamethasone. Application of TRI-Gel therapy to a murine tumor model promotes enhanced apoptosis with a concurrent reduction in angiogenesis and inflammation, leading to effective abrogation of tumor proliferation and increased median survival with reduced drug resistance. In-depth RNA-sequencing analysis showed that TRI-Gel therapy induced transcriptome-wide alternative splicing of many genes responsible for oncogenic transformation including sphingolipid genes. We demonstrate that TRI-Gel therapy targets the reversal of a unique intron retention event in β-glucocerebrosidase 1 (Gba1), thereby increasing the availability of functional Gba1 protein. An enhanced Gba1 activity elevates ceramide levels responsible for apoptosis and decreases glucosylceramides to overcome drug resistance. Therefore, TRI-Gel therapy provides a unique system that affects the TME via post-transcriptional modulations of sphingolipid metabolic genes, thereby opening a new and rational approach to cancer therapy.

Abstract
This work reports on the synthesis of three new l-lysine-based organogelators bis(N2-alkanoyl-N6-l-lysyl ethylester)oxalylamides, where alkanoyls are lauroyl, myristoyl, and palmitoyl. The gels of these gelators were prepared with high yields in eco-friendly solvents commonly used in cosmetics such as ethyl and isopropyl esters of lauric and myristic acids, liquid paraffin, 1-decanol, and 1,2-propanediol. Fourier transform infrared measurements revealed the involvement of intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the gelation. Scanning electron microscopy images of xerogels indicated different morphologic patterns with regard to the alkanoyl chain length and the solvent employed in their preparation. The gel formation was supported by rheological measurements. Three gels prepared in liquid paraffin were loaded with naproxen (Npx) with a quite high loading capacity (up to 166.6% as percentage of gelator) without gel disruption. The release of Npx from the gel matrix into the buffered solution at physiologic pH was evaluated using UV-vis spectroscopy. The results revealed that the release rate of Npx from the organogels significantly retarded with increasing organogelator concentration, whereas it enhanced with increasing Npx concentration. The rate was also found to be pH-dependent; the lower the pH, the lower the rate. Furthermore, molecular dynamic calculations performed on the octamer of myristoyl-bearing gelator (N 2 M/N 6 Lys) in 1,2-propanediol provided useful information regarding the structural properties of the gels, which may be of interest to interpret the structure of the gel matrix. Altogether, this work provided valuable outcomes, which may be relevant to the pharmaceutical industry. It may be suggested that l-lysine-based gels have potentials in the delivery of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug molecules. Besides, the release of the drug can be fine-tuned by the correct choice of gelator-solvent combination.

Abstract
An unreported d,l-tripeptide self-assembled into gels that embedded FeII4 L4 metal-organic cages to form materials that were characterized by TEM, EDX, Raman spectroscopy, rheometry, UV/Vis and NMR spectroscopy, and circular dichroism. The cage type and concentration modulated gel viscoelasticity, and thus the diffusion rate of molecular guests through the nanostructured matrix, as gauged by 19 F and 1 H NMR spectroscopy. When two different cages were added to spatially separated gel layers, the gel-cage composite material enabled the spatial segregation of a mixture of guests that diffused into the gel. Each cage selectively encapsulated its preferred guest during diffusion. We thus present a new strategy for using nested supramolecular interactions to enable the separation of small molecules.

Abstract
Injectable hydrogels are increasingly being used as scaffolds for in situ tissue engineering and wound healing. Most of these injectable hydrogels are made from polymers, and there are fewer examples of such soft materials made via self-assembly of low-molecular weight gelators. We report the room-temperature synthesis of a functional hydrogel formed by mixing cytidine (C) with 0.5 equiv each of B(OH)3 and AgNO3. The structural basis for this supramolecular hydrogel (C-B-C·Ag+) involves orthogonal formation of cytidine borate diesters (C-B-C) and Ag+-stabilized C-C base pairs, namely, the C·Ag+·C dimer. The C-B-C·Ag+ hydrogels, which can have high water content (at least 99.6%), are stable (no degradation after 1 year in the light), stimuli-responsive, and self-supporting, with elastic moduli of up to 104 Pa. Incorporation of Ag+ ions into the gel matrix endows the C-B-C·Ag+ hydrogel with significant antibacterial capability. Importantly, the rapid switching between the sol and gel states for this supramolecular hydrogel, as a response to shear stress, enables 3D printing of a flexible medical patch made from the C-B-C·Ag+ hydrogel. The C-B-C·Ag+ hydrogel was used to promote the closure of burn wounds in a mouse model.

Abstract
Polymeric hydrogels are promising candidates for drug delivery applications, thanks to their ability to encapsulate, transport and release a wide range of chemicals. The successful application of these materials requires a deep understanding of the mechanisms governing solute transport at the nanoscale and its impact on release kinetics. In this work, we investigate the translational diffusion of ibuprofen loaded in anionic agarose-carbomer (AC) hydrogels by 1H high resolution magic angle spinning (HR-MAS) NMR spectroscopy, and compare it to its macroscopic release kinetics. The analysis of the experimental NMR data provides the first evidence of superdiffusion for ibuprofen in AC hydrogels. Superdiffusive transport is observed in the majority of our samples, especially those with the smallest mesh size (7 nm) and highest ibuprofen concentrations (90-120 mg/mL). This outcome is rationalized in terms of heavy-tailed distributions of spatial displacements (Lèvy flights) and of waiting times, which depend on the nanoscopic structural heterogeneity of the gels and the strong but reversible association between ibuprofen and the agarose matrix.

Abstract
Systemic drug delivery methods such as oral or parenteral administration of free drugs possess relatively low treatment efficiency and marked adverse side effects. The use of nanoparticles for drug delivery in most cases substantially enhances drug efficacy, improves pharmacokinetics and drug release and limits their side effects. However, further enhancement in drug efficacy and significant limitation of adverse side effects can be achieved by specific targeting of nanocarrier-based delivery systems especially in combination with local administration. The present review describes major advantages and limitations of organic and inorganic nanocarriers or living cell-based drug and nucleic acid delivery systems. Among these, different nanoparticles, supramolecular gels, therapeutic cells as living drug carriers etc. have emerged as a new frontier in modern medicine.

Abstract
Nanocarriers are of paramount significance for drug delivery and nanomedicine technology. Given the imperfect systems and nonideal therapeutic effects, there are works to be done in synthesis as much as in biological studies, if not more so. Building the foundation of synthesis would offer more tools and deeper insights for exploring the biological systems with extreme complexity. This review aims at a broad-scope summary and classification of nanocarriers for drug delivery, with focus on the synthetic strategy and structural implications. The nanocarriers are divided into four categories according to the loading principle: molecular-level loading, surface loading, matrix loading, and cavity loading systems. Making comparisons across diverse nanocarrier systems would make it easier to see the fundamental characteristics, from where the weakness can be addressed and the strengths combined. The systematic comparisons may also inspire new ideas and methods.

Abstract
A supramolecular gel is a fascinating combination of flexibility and orderliness. While the supramolecular nature of crosslinking contributes towards the adaptivity and the reversibility of the system, orderliness at the molecular level amplifies the functional output and induces extraordinary selectivity into the system. Therefore, use of supramolecular gels as the soft template is an emerging area of research, which includes but not limited to catalysis of a chemical or a photochemical process, transcription of gel property to a substrate, or even controlling the nucleation of drug molecules. This review aims to highlight the template effect of supramolecular gels in the above-mentioned areas relevant to novel fundamental chemistry, technology, and healthcare.

Abstract
Biosourced surfactants are endeavored as a green alternative to biosurfactants and petrochemical surfactants having industrial utilization. Nine glycolipids with headgroup and chain length variation were derived from renewable resources like vegetable oils, carbohydrates, and amino acids. The concentration-dependent interfacial activity, foamability, wetting power, emulsification power, and solubilization capacities of glycolipids were investigated to provide a structure-activity relationship. Later, the metal flotation and emulsification experiments were performed. In general, for metal flotation, the surfactant should contain a hydrophobic tail, hydrophilic head, and chelating function. In the present investigation, it was observed that the headgroup of a glycolipid can serve as a hydrophilic head as well as perform a chelating function. Moreover, heat energy generated from the sunlight was utilized for metal flotation. Additionally, these glycolipids are capable to form stable sunflower oil-water (W/O and O/W) emulsions. The mechanical and thermal stabilities and hydrophobic chain length dependency of the prepared emulsions at different water volume fractions are explored. Furthermore, encapsulation and release of water-soluble (riboflavin and l-ascorbic acid) and oil-soluble (curcumin and α-tocopherol) bioactives in glycolipid emulsions were monitored. Thus, glycolipids under investigation had shown the possibility for pretreatment of chromium-containing wastewaters and bioactive-loaded emulsions toward the controlled release.

Abstract
Generation of vesicular self-assemblies from natural and synthetic components has been in the frontiers of research in recent years for an improved understanding of the self-assembly process and also because of its prospective and realized applications in the areas of advanced materials, biotechnology and medicine. In the present work, we report the first example of the in situ generation of vesicular self-assemblies during an aerobic coupling reaction. The two precursor 2-naphthol units, having hydrogen bond donor–acceptor groups with appended alkyl chains, yielded binol (2,2′-dihydroxy-1,1′-binaphthyl) derivatives by aerobic coupling that spontaneously self-assembled in situ, yielding vesicular self-assemblies and gels. The morphology of the self-assemblies has been characterized by various optical, electron and atomic force microscopic techniques. The vesicular self-assemblies obtained in the liquids were capable of entrapping fluorophores such as rhodamine-B and carboxy fluorescein including the anticancer drug doxorubicin. The entrapped fluorophores could also be released by sonication or by rupture of vesicles. The supramolecular gels obtained in binary solvent mixtures showed improved gelation abilities with increase in the alkyl chain lengths as reflected by their minimum gelator concentration (mgcs) values, gel to sol transition temperatures (Tgel) and rheology properties. The results described here are also the first demonstration of gelation during an aerobic coupling reaction. Binol derivatives, obtained by aerobic coupling of two 2-naphthol derivatives having H-bond donor–acceptor groups and appended alkyl chains, spontaneously self-assembled in situ yielding vesicular self-assemblies and gels.![]()
