Abstract
Hydrogels exhibit water-insoluble three-dimensional polymeric networks capable of absorbing large amounts of biological fluids. Both natural and synthetic polymers are used for the preparation of hydrogel networks. Such polymeric networks are fabricated through chemical or physical mechanisms of crosslinking. Chemical crosslinking is accomplished mainly through covalent bonding, while physical crosslinking involves self-healing secondary forces like H-bonding, host-guest interactions, and antigen-antibody interactions. The building blocks of the hydrogels play an important role in determining the mechanical, biological, and physicochemical properties. Hydrogels are used in a variety of biomedical applications like diagnostics (biodetection and bioimaging), delivery of therapeutics (drugs, immunotherapeutics, and vaccines), wound dressing and skin materials, cardiac complications, contact lenses, tissue engineering, and cell culture because of the inherent characteristics like enhanced water uptake and structural similarity with the extracellular matrix (ECM). This review highlights the recent trends and advances in the roles of hydrogels in biomedical and therapeutic applications. We also discuss the classification and methods of hydrogels preparation. A brief outlook on the future directions of hydrogels is also presented.

Abstract
Using hydrogels for delivering cancer therapeutics is advantageous in pharmaceutical usage as they have an edge over traditional delivery, which is tainted due to the risk of toxicity that it imbues. Hydrogel usage leads to the development of a more controlled drug release system owing to its amenability for structural metamorphosis, its higher porosity to seat the drug molecules, and its ability to shield the drug from denaturation. The thing that makes its utility even more enhanced is that they make themselves more recognizable to the body tissues and hence can stay inside the body for a longer time, enhancing the efficiency of the delivery, which otherwise is negatively affected since the drug is identified by the human immunity as a foreign substance, and thus, an attack of the immunity begins on the drug injected. A variety of hydrogels such as thermosensitive, pH-sensitive, and magnetism-responsive hydrogels have been included and their potential usage in drug delivery has been discussed in this review that aims to present recent studies on hydrogels that respond to alterations under a variety of circumstances in "reducing" situations that mimic the microenvironment of cancerous cells.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising new approach for cancer treatment. However, clinically available drugs have been limited until recently, and the antitumor efficacy of most cancer immunotherapies still needs to be improved. Herein, we develop diselenide-pemetrexed assemblies that combine natural killer (NK) cell-based cancer immunotherapy with radiotherapy and chemotherapy in a single system. The assemblies are prepared by co-assembly between pemetrexed and cytosine-containing diselenide through hydrogen bonds. Under γ-radiation, the hydrogen bonds are cleaved, resulting in the release of pemetrexed. At the same time, diselenide can be oxidized to seleninic acid, which suppresses the expression of human leukocyte antigen E (HLA-E) in cancer cells, thus activating the immune response of NK cells. In this way, cancer immunotherapy is combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, providing a new strategy for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are a novel type of natural nanomaterials that have attracted tremendous research interest for various applications especially in the biomedical fields owing to their natural origin, biodegradable potential, remarkable biocompatibility and massive reactive hydroxyl groups. In this work, a novel strategy has been developed for fabrication of luminescent CNCs with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) feature for the first time through a facile one-step Ce(IV) redox polymerization for direct surface grafting of AIE dye (PhE) and hydrophilic monomer Poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether acrylate (PEGMA) on CNCs. Various characterization techniques would demonstrate the successful preparation of resultant CNC-PhE-PEGMA with uniform nanoscale size, remarkable fluorescent properties and extremely low cytotoxicity. Furthermore, compared with conventional modification strategy of CNCs, Ce(IV) redox polymerization only need moderate temperature and can operate in aqueous solution utilizing surface hydroxyl groups of CNCs as polymerization activity sites. More importantly, CNC-PhE-PEGMA show desirable fluorescent properties and can be used for cell dyeing, indicating their potential for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Conventional drug delivery approaches are plagued by issues pertaining to systemic toxicity and repeated dosing. Hydrogels offer convenient drug delivery vehicles to ensure these disadvantages are minimized and the therapeutic benefits from the drug are optimized. With exquisitely tunable physical properties that confer them great controlled drug release features and the merits they offer for labile drug protection from degradation, hydrogels emerge as very efficient drug delivery systems. The versatility and diversity of the hydrogels extend their applications beyond targeted drug delivery also to wound dressings, contact lenses and tissue engineering to name but a few. They are 90% water, and highly porous to accommodate drugs for delivery and facilitate controlled release. Herein we discuss hydrogels and how they could be manipulated for targeted drug delivery applications. Suitable examples from the literature are provided that support the recent advancements of hydrogels in targeted drug delivery in diverse disease areas and how they could be suitably modified in very different ways for achieving significant impact in targeted drug delivery. With their enormous amenability to modification, hydrogels serve as promising delivery vehicles of therapeutic molecules in several disease conditions, including cancer and diabetes.

Abstract
Surface modification is an important technique in fields, such as, self-cleaning, surface patterning, sensing, and detection. The diselenide bond was shown to be a dynamic covalent bond that can undergo a diselenide metathesis reaction simply under visible light irradiation. Herein we develop this diselenide dynamic chemistry into a versatile surface modification method with a fast response and reversibility. The diselenide bond could be modified onto various substrates, such as, PDMS, quartz, and ITO conductive film glass. Different functional diselenide molecules could then be immobilized onto the surface via diselenide metathesis reaction. We demonstrated that by using this modification method we could achieve liquid motion in a capillary tube under light illumination. We also show that this approach has the potential to serve as an efficient modification method for surface bioconjugation, which has practical applications in clinical usage.

The approach of concurrent-to-synchronous chemoradiation has now been advanced by well-designed nanovesicles that permit X-ray irradiation-triggered instant drug release. The nanovesicles consist of Au nanoparticles tethered with irradiation labile linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LAHP) molecules and oxidation-responsive poly(propylene sulfide)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PPS-PEG) polymers, where DOX were loaded in the inner core of the vesicles (Au-LAHP-vDOX). Upon irradiation, the in situ formation of hydroxyl radicals from LAHP molecules triggers the internal oxidation of PPS from being hydrophobic to hydrophilic, leading to degradation of the vesicles and burst release of cargo drugs. In this manner, synchronous chemoradiation showed impressive anticancer efficacy both in vitro and in a subcutaneous mouse tumor model by one-dose injection and one-time irradiation.

Abstract
Peptide amphiphiles (PAs), functionalized with alkyl chains, are capable of self-assembling into various nanostructures. Recently, PAs have been considered as ideal drug carriers due to their good biocompatibility, specific biological functions, and hypotoxicity to normal cells and tissues. Meanwhile, the nanocarriers formed by PAs are able to achieve controlled drug release and enhanced cell uptake in response to the stimulus of the physiological environment or specific biological factors in the location of the lesion. However, the underlying detailed drug delivery mechanism, especially from the aspect of primary and secondary structures of PAs, has not been systematically summarized or discussed. Focusing on the relationship between the primary and secondary structures of PAs and stimuli-responsive drug delivery applications, this review highlights the recent advances, challenges, and opportunities of PA-based functional drug nanocarriers, and their potential pharmaceutical applications are discussed.

Abstract
This review discusses the functional polymer materials effect on the cell adhesion. The applied polymer materials for the cell adhesion purpose was prepared based on organic fibers and biocompatible hydrogel. On the other hand, the active peptides are incorporated into the polymer materials substrate via the cysteine-containing peptides and N-hydroxysuccinimide-active group. Cancer cells and normal cells were presented for the selective adhesion via the introduced polymer materials substrate containing active peptides including Arginine-Glycine-Aspartic and Isoleucine-Lysine-Valine-Alanine-Valine sequence peptides. This selectivity is revealed by a significant cooperativity between specific and non-specific cell adhesion. This study is of a great impact for the design of the polymeric structures for cell attachment.

Cancer-Targeted Selenium Nanoparticles Sensitize Cancer Cells to Continuous γ Radiation to Achieve Synergetic Chemo-Radiotherapy. Chem Asian J 2017; 12:3053-3060.

Abstract
Cancer radiotherapy with 125 I seeds demonstrates higher long-term efficacy and fewer side effects than traditional X-ray radiotherapy owing to its low-dose and continuous radiation but is still limited by radioresistance in clinical applications. Therefore, the design and synthesis of sensitizers that could enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to 125 I seeds is of great importance for future radiotherapy. Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have been found to exhibit high potential in cancer chemotherapy and as drug carriers. In this study, we found that, based on the Auger-electron effect and Compton effect of Se atoms, cancer-targeted SeNPs in combination with 125 I seeds achieve synergetic effects to inhibit cancer-cell growth and colony formation through the induction of cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Detailed studies on the action mechanisms reveal that the combined treatments effectively activate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction to regulate p53-mediated DNA damage apoptotic signaling pathways and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation and to prevent the self-repair of cancer cells simultaneously. Taken together, the combination of SeNPs with 125 I seeds could be further exploited as a safe and effective strategy for next-generation cancer chemo-radiotherapy in clinical applications.

Abstract
A two-component hydrogelator (16-A)2 -V(2+) , comprising an l-alanine-based amphiphile (16-A) and a redox-active viologen based partner (V(2+) ), is reported. The formation the hydrogel depended, not only on the acid-to-amine stoichiometric ratio, but on the choice of the l-amino acid group and also on the hydrocarbon chain length of the amphiphilic component. The redox responsive property and the electrochemical behavior of this two-component system were further examined by step-wise chemical and electrochemical reduction of the viologen nucleus (V(2+) /V(+) and V(+) /V(0) ). The half-wave reduction potentials (E1/2 ) associated with the viologen ring shifted to more negative values with increasing amine component. This indicates that higher extent of salt formation hinders reduction of the viologen moiety. Interestingly, the incorporation of single-walled carbon nanotubes in the electrochemically irreversible hydrogel (16-A)2 -V(2+) transformed it into a quasi-reversible electrochemical system.

Abstract
As a new class of biomaterials, most supramolecular hydrogels formed by small peptides require the attachment of long alkyl chains, multiple aromatic groups, or strong electrostatic interactions. Based on the fact that the most abundant protein assemblies in nature are dimeric, we select short peptide sequences from the interface of a heterodimer of proteins with known crystal structure to conjugate with nucleobases to form nucleopeptides. Being driven mainly by hydrogen bonds, the nucleopeptides self-assemble to form nanofibers, which results in supramolecular hydrogels upon simple mixing of two distinct nucleopeptides in water. Moreover, besides being biocompatible to mammalian cells, the heterodimer of the nucleopeptides exhibit excellent proteolytic resistance against proteinase K. This work illustrates a new and rational approach to create soft biomaterials by a supramolecular hydrogelation triggered by mixing heterodimeric nucleopeptides.

Abstract
A liposome-based co-delivery system composed of a fusogenic liposome encapsulating ATP-responsive elements with chemotherapeutics and a liposome containing ATP was developed for ATP-mediated drug release triggered by liposomal fusion. The fusogenic liposome had a protein-DNA complex core containing an ATP-responsive DNA scaffold with doxorubicin (DOX) and could release DOX through a conformational change from the duplex to the aptamer/ATP complex in the presence of ATP. A cell-penetrating peptide-modified fusogenic liposomal membrane was coated on the core, which had an acid-triggered fusogenic potential with the ATP-loaded liposomes or endosomes/lysosomes. Directly delivering extrinsic liposomal ATP promoted the drug release from the fusogenic liposome in the acidic intracellular compartments upon a pH-sensitive membrane fusion and anticancer efficacy was enhanced both in vitro and in vivo.
