Abstract
Building stimuli-responsive supramolecular systems is a way for chemists to achieve spatio-temporal control over complex systems as well as a promising strategy for applications ranging from sensing to drug-delivery. For its large spectrum of biological and biomedical implications, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is a particularly interesting target for such a purpose but photoresponsive ATP-based systems have mainly been relying on covalent modification of ATP. Here, we show that simply mixing ATP with AzoDiGua, an azobenzene-guanidium compound with photodependent nucleotide binding affinity, results in the spontaneous self-assembly of the two non-fluorescent compounds into photoreversible, micrometer-sized and fluorescent aggregates. Obtained in water at room temperature and physiological pH, these supramolecular structures are dynamic and respond to several chemical, physical and biological stimuli. The presence of azobenzene allows a fast and photoreversible control of their assembly. ATP chelating properties to metal dications enable ion-triggered disassembly and fluorescence control with valence-selectivity. Finally, the supramolecular aggregates are disassembled by alkaline phosphatase in a few minutes at room temperature, resulting in enzymatic control of fluorescence. These results highlight the interest of using a photoswitchable nucleotide binding partner as a self-assembly brick to build highly responsive supramolecular entities involving biological targets without the need to covalently modify them.

Abstract
In situ monitoring of bone tissue regeneration progression is critical for the development of bone tissue engineering scaffold. However, engineered scaffolds that can stimulate osteogenic progress and allow for non-invasive monitoring of in vivo bone regeneration simultaneously are rarely reported. Based on a hard-and-soft integration strategy, a multifunctional scaffold composed of 3D printed microfilaments and a hydrogel network containing simvastatin (SV), indocyanine green-loaded superamphiphiles, and aminated ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO-NH2 ) is fabricated. Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that the as-prepared scaffold significantly promotes osteogenesis through controlled SV release. The biocomposite scaffold exhibits alkaline phosphatase-responsive near-infrared II fluorescence imaging. Meanwhile, USPIO-NH2 within the co-crosslinked nanocomposite network enables the visualization of scaffold degradation by magnetic resonance imaging. Therefore, the biocomposite scaffold enables or facilitates non-invasive in situ monitoring of neo-bone formation and scaffold degradation processes following osteogenic stimulation, offering a promising strategy to develop theranostic scaffolds for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Dynamic covalent poly(disulfide)-based cross-linked nanoaggregates, termed nanonetworks (NNs), endowed with pH- and redox-responsive degradation features have been fabricated for stable noncovalent encapsulation and triggered cargo release in a controlled fashion. A bioderived lipoic acid-based Gemini surfactant-like amphiphilic molecule was synthesized for the preparation of nanoaggregates. It self-assembles by a entropy-driven self-assembly process in aqueous milieu. To further stabilize the self-assembled nanostructure, the core was cross-linked by ring-opening disulfide exchange polymerization (RODEP) of 1,2-dithiolane rings situated inside the core of the nanoaggregates. The cross-linked nanoaggregates, i.e., nanonetwork, are found to be stable in the presence of blood serum, and also, they maintain the self-assembled structure even below the critical aggregation concentration (CAC) as probed by dynamic light scattering (DLS) experiments. The nanonetwork showed almost 50% reduction in guest leakage compared to that of the nanoaggregates as shown by the release profile in the absence of stimuli, suggesting high encapsulation stability as evidenced by the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) experiment. The decross-linking of the nanonetwork occurs in response to redox and pH stimuli due to disulfide reduction and β-thioester hydrolysis, respectively, thus empowering disassembly-mediated controlled cargo release up to ∼87% for 55 h of incubation. The biological evaluation of the doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded nanonetwork revealed environment-specific surface charge modulation-mediated cancer cell-selective cellular uptake and cytotoxicity. The benign nature of the nanonetwork toward normal cells makes the system very promising in targeted drug delivery applications. Thus, the ease of synthesis, nanonetwork fabrication reproducibility, robust stability, triggered drug release in a controlled fashion, and cell-selective cytotoxicity behavior, we believe, will make the system a potential candidate in the development of robust materials for chemotherapeutic applications.

Abstract
As immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducers initiating antitumor immune responses, certain chemotherapeutic drugs have shown considerable potential to reverse the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITM) into immune-responsive tumors. The application of these drugs in nanomedicine provides a more enhanced therapeutic index by improving unfavorable pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles and inefficient tumor targeting. However, the clinical translation of conventional nanoparticles is restricted by fundamental problems, such as risks of immunogenicity and potential toxicity by carrier materials, premature drug leakage in off-target sites during circulation, low drug loading contents, and complex structure and synthetic processes that hinder quality control (QC) and scale-up industrial production. To address these limitations, tumor-activated carrier-free prodrug nanoparticles (PDNPs), constructed only by the self-assembly of prodrugs without any additional carrier materials, have been widely investigated with distinct advantages for safe and more effective drug delivery. In addition, combination immunotherapy based on PDNPs with other diverse modalities has efficiently reversed the ITM to immune-responsive tumors, potentiating the response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. In this review, the trends and advances in PDNPs are outlined, and each self-assembly mechanism is discussed. In addition, various combination immunotherapies based on PDNPs are reviewed. Finally, a physical tumor microenvironment remodeling strategy to maximize the potential of PDNPs, and key considerations for clinical translation are highlighted.

Abstract
The potential of oligonucleotides is exceptional in therapeutics because of their high safety, potency, and specificity compared to conventional therapeutic agents. However, many obstacles, such as low in vivo stability and poor cellular uptake, have hampered their clinical success. Use of polymeric carriers can be an effective approach for overcoming the biological barriers and thereby maximizing the therapeutic efficacy of the oligonucleotides due to the availability of highly tunable synthesis and functional modification of various polymers. As loaded in the polymeric carriers, the therapeutic oligonucleotides, such as antisense oligonucleotides, small interfering RNAs, microRNAs, and even messenger RNAs, become nuclease-resistant by bypassing renal filtration and can be efficiently internalized into disease cells. In this review, we introduced a variety of systematic combinations between the therapeutic oligonucleotides and the synthetic polymers, including the uses of highly functionalized polymers responding to a wide range of endogenous and exogenous stimuli for spatiotemporal control of oligonucleotide release. We also presented intriguing characteristics of oligonucleotides suitable for targeted therapy and immunotherapy, which can be fully supported by versatile polymeric carriers.

Abstract
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) is a central player in lipid metabolism, catalyzing the first step to fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Inhibiting CPT1A, especially in the brain, can have several pharmacological benefits, such as in treating obesity and brain cancer. C75-CoA is a strong competitive inhibitor of CPT1A. However, due to its negatively charged nature, it has low cellular permeability. Herein, we report the use of poly-ion complex (PIC) micelles to deliver the specific CPT1A inhibitors (±)-, (+)-, and (-)-C75-CoA into U87MG glioma cells and GT1-7 neurons. PIC micelles were formed through charge-neutralization of the cargo with the cationic side chain of PEG-poly{N-[N'-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl]aspartamide} (PEG-PAsp(DET)), forming particles with 55 to 65 nm diameter. Upon short-term incubation with cells, the micelle-encapsulated CPT1A inhibitors resulted in up to 5-fold reduction of ATP synthesis compared to the free drug, without an apparent decline in cell viability. Micelle treatment showed a discernible decrease in 14C-palmitate oxidation into CO2 and acid-soluble metabolites, confirming that the substantial lowering of ATP production has resulted from FAO inhibition. Micelle treatment also diminished IC50 by 2 to 4-fold over the free drug-treated U87MG after long-term incubation. To measure the cellular uptake of these CoA-adduct loaded PIC micelles, we synthesized a fluorescent CoA derivative and prepared Fluor-CoA micelles which showed efficient internalization in the cell lines, both in 2D and 3D culture models, especially in neurons where uptake reached up to 3-fold over the free dye. Our results starkly demonstrate that the PIC micelles are a promising delivery platform for anionic inhibitors of CPT1A in glioma cells and neurons, laying the groundwork for future research or clinical applications.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in the design of enzyme-responsive molecular assemblies that hold appealing applications in the fields of disease-related sensing, imaging, and drug delivery. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are amylase-cleavable host molecules that can associate with surfactants, alkanes, alkyl amines, fatty alcohols, and aromatic compounds to form diverse supramolecular structures. In this work, we report a versatile supramolecular platform to construct enzyme-responsive nanosystems via host-guest interactions, in which complexation between CDs and surfactants eventually leads to the formation of a variety of nanostructures such as vesicles and microtubes. These supramolecular structures are capable of loading water-soluble molecules or functional nanoparticles, which can be actively released on-demand in the presence of α-amylase. This universal strategy to fabricate enzyme-responsive supramolecular systems was further demonstrated with a range of surfactants with anionic, cationic, and nonionic headgroups. Our results highlight a versatile platform for the exploration of biologically responsive self-assembly with potential applications as controlled-release systems and microrobots.

Abstract
A novel fluorescence "turn-on" enzyme-responsive supra-amphiphile is developed based on the host-guest recognition between γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) and an amphiphilic tetraphenylethene-sodium glycyrrhetinate conjugate (TPE-SGA). The covalent amphiphile TPE-SGA displayed strong fluorescence in aqueous solution owing to the aggregation-induced emission. Upon addition of γ-CD, the fluorescence of TPE-SGA was effectively turned off due to the host-guest recognition with γ-CD prohibiting the aggregation of TPE-SGA in aqueous solution. The as-formed nonfluorescent supra-amphiphile (TPE-SGA/γ-CD) inherited the α-amylase-responsive property of γ-CD. In the presence of α-amylase, the fluorescence of the supra-amphiphile was gradually turned on owing to the hydrolysis of γ-CD, and the fluorescence intensity linearly correlated to the activity of α-amylase. This study enriches the field of supra-amphiphile on the basis of cyclodextrin-based host-guest chemistry and provides a novel strategy to construct fluorescence turn-on functioned self-assemblies. It is anticipated that the fluorescence turn-on supra-amphiphile has potential applications in biological analysis and diagnosis of pancreatic diseases.

Supramolecular block copolymers (SBCs) have received considerable interest in polymer chemistry, materials science, biomedical engineering and nanotechnology owing to their unique structural and functional advantages, such as low cytotoxicity, outstanding biodegradability, smart environmental responsiveness, and so forth. SBCs comprise two or more different homopolymer subunits linked by noncovalent bonds, and these polymers, in particular, combine the dynamically reversible nature of supramolecular polymers with the hierarchical microphase-separated structures of block polymers. A rapidly increasing number of publications on the synthesis and applications of SBCs have been reported in recent years; however, a systematic summary of the design, synthesis, properties and applications of SBCs has not been published. To this end, this review provides a brief overview of the recent advances in SBCs and describes the synthesis strategies, properties and functions, and their widespread applications in drug delivery, gene delivery, protein delivery, bioimaging and so on. In this review, we aim to elucidate the general concepts and structure-property relationships of SBCs, as well as their practical bioapplications, shedding further valuable insights into this emerging research field.

Sun Y, Davis E. Nanoplatforms for Targeted Stimuli-Responsive Drug Delivery: A Review of Platform Materials and Stimuli-Responsive Release and Targeting Mechanisms. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2021; 11:746. [PMID: 33809633 PMCID: PMC8000772 DOI: 10.3390/nano11030746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2021] [Revised: 03/05/2021] [Accepted: 03/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
To achieve the promise of stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems for the treatment of cancer, they should (1) avoid premature clearance; (2) accumulate in tumors and undergo endocytosis by cancer cells; and (3) exhibit appropriate stimuli-responsive release of the payload. It is challenging to address all of these requirements simultaneously. However, the numerous proof-of-concept studies addressing one or more of these requirements reported every year have dramatically expanded the toolbox available for the design of drug delivery systems. This review highlights recent advances in the targeting and stimuli-responsiveness of drug delivery systems. It begins with a discussion of nanocarrier types and an overview of the factors influencing nanocarrier biodistribution. On-demand release strategies and their application to each type of nanocarrier are reviewed, including both endogenous and exogenous stimuli. Recent developments in stimuli-responsive targeting strategies are also discussed. The remaining challenges and prospective solutions in the field are discussed throughout the review, which is intended to assist researchers in overcoming interdisciplinary knowledge barriers and increase the speed of development. This review presents a nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems toolbox that enables the application of techniques across platforms and inspires researchers with interdisciplinary information to boost the development of multifunctional therapeutic nanoplatforms for cancer therapy.

Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of soft and environmentally sensitive polymeric nanosystems, which are widely known as nanogels. These particles keep great promise to the area of drug delivery due to their high biocompatibility with body fluids and tissues, as well as due to their ability to encapsulate and release the loaded drugs in a controlled manner. For a long period of time, the controlled drug delivery systems were designed to provide long-termed or sustained release. However, some medical treatments such as cancer chemotherapy, protein and gene delivery do not require the prolonged release of the drug in the site of action. In contrast, the rapid increase of the drug concentration is needed for gaining the desired biological effect. Being very sensitive to surrounding media and different stimuli, nanogels can undergo physico-chemical transitions or chemical changes in their structure. Such changes can result in more rapid release of the drugs, which is usually referred to as triggered drug release. Herein we give the basic information on nanogel unique features, methods of sensitive nanogels preparation, as well as on main mechanisms of triggered release. Additionally, the triggered release of low-molecular drugs and biomacromolecules are discussed.

Abstract
Here we presented a novel micelle self-assembled from amphiphiles with π-conjugated moieties (OEG-DPH). The π-conjugated structural integrity of the micelles enabled stable encapsulation of Nile Red (NR, model drug). The self-assembly behaviour of the amphiphiles and the release profile of NR loaded micelles were investigated. Spherical core-shell structured NR loaded micelles with low CMC of 57 μg/mL and the efficient intracellular delivery process was monitored. This research provided a way to fabricate stable polymeric micelles and develop a practical nanocarrier for therapeutics delivery.

Abstract
We investigated the kinds of complexes sulfobetaine surfactant and ionic polymer formed using lauramidopropyl hydroxysultane (LAPHS) as a sulfobetaine surfactant, poly(sodium styrenesulfonate) (PSSNa) as the anionic polymer and poly[3-(methacrylamido)propyl trimethylammonium chloride] (PMAPTAC) as the cationic polymer. The fundamental properties of LAPHS at various salt concentrations were estimated by various measurements, and it was confirmed that the LAPHS micelles alone did not show temperature responsiveness. The presence of large aggregates in addition to LAPHS micelles was confirmed in the aggregates prepared by adding PSSNa to LAPHS at a charge ratio of 1:0.5, 1:1, and 1:2. However, the aggregates could not be formed when the salt concentration was high or when a monomer was added instead of the polymer. This revealed that the cation part of sulfobetaine, which is the shell of LAPHS micelles, and the anion part of PSSNa electrostatically interacted with each other to form a large aggregate. On the other hand, unlike the case of LAPHS micelles alone and the aggregate consisting of LAPHS micelles and PSSNa, the aggregate of LAPHS micelles and PMAPTAC showed an unprecedented phenomenon of "clear → opaque → clear" with increasing concentration in the concentration range above CMC. The change in the transition temperature due to the change of concentration was a factor. Additionally, we confirmed that the transition temperature was lowered when the concentration was higher than CMC or the salt concentration was increased, and the transition temperature was increased when the PMAPTAC with a high degree of polymerization was added. These results suggested that the LAPHS micelles and the ionic polymer form an aggregate, and the temperature responsivity can be expressed by the interaction with the cationic polymer.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a central metabolite that plays an indispensable role in various cellular processes, from energy supply to cell-to-cell signaling. Nature has developed sophisticated strategies to use the energy stored in ATP for many metabolic and non-equilibrium processes, and to sense and bind ATP for biological signaling. The variations in the ATP concentrations from one organelle to another, from extracellular to intracellular environments, and from normal cells to cancer cells are one motivation for designing ATP-triggered and ATP-fueled systems and materials, because they show great potential for applications in biological systems by using ATP as a trigger or chemical fuel. Over the last decade, ATP has been emerging as an attractive co-assembling component for man-made stimuli-responsive as well as for fuel-driven active systems and materials. Herein, current advances and emerging concepts for ATP-triggered and ATP-fueled self-assemblies and materials are discussed, shedding light on applications and highlighting future developments. By bringing together concepts of different domains, that is from supramolecular chemistry to DNA nanoscience, from equilibrium to non-equilibrium self-assembly, and from fundamental sciences to applications, the aim is to cross-fertilize current approaches with the ultimate aim to bring synthetic ATP-dependent systems closer to living systems.

Abstract
The self-assembly of a stimuli-responsive amphiphilic polymer has been of great interest in the area of targeted drug delivery applications. In this article, a new amphiphilic polyurethane with a hydrophobic backbone consisting of a redox-responsive self-immolative unit and hydrophilic pendant triethylene glycol, which is periodically grafted on the backbone by a tertiary amine group, has been designed and synthesized. This amphiphilic polymer self-assembles into a micellar nanostructure (investigated by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy) in an aqueous medium and shows guest encapsulation property. Furthermore, the pH-responsive nature leads to the formation of a positively charged nanoassembly at a tumor-relevant pH (∼6.5-6.8), which is probed by zeta potential measurements. As the backbone was constructed with self-immolative, redox-responsive functionality, degradation of the polymer was observed in the presence of a reducing agent, glutathione (GSH), which results in disassembly of the self-assembled structure followed by guest release as probed by UV-vis spectroscopy. The triggered degradation and pH-specific charge generation (from neutral to positive), we believe, will have implications in the design of biodegradable polymers as supramoleular scaffolds for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Development of multi-functional materials and biosensors that can achieve an in situ response designed by the user is a current need in the biomaterials field, especially in complex biological environments, such as inflammation, where multiple enzymatic and oxidative signals are present. In the past decade, there has been extensive research and development of materials chemistries for detecting and monitoring enzymatic activity, as well as for releasing therapeutic and diagnostic agents in regions undergoing oxidative stress. However, there has been limited development of materials in the context of enzymatic and oxidative triggers together, despite their closely tied and overlapping mechanisms. With research focusing on enzymatically and oxidatively triggered materials separately, these systems may be inadequate in monitoring the complexity of inflammatory environments, thus limiting in vivo translatability and diagnostic accuracy. The intention of this review is to highlight a variety of enzymatically and oxidatively triggered materials chemistries to draw attention to the range of synthetic tunability available for the construction of novel biosensors with a spectrum of programmed responses. We focus our discussion on several types of macromolecular sensors, generally classified by the causative material response driving ultimate signal detection. This includes sensing based on degradative processes, conformational changes, supramolecular assembly/disassembly, and nanomaterial interactions, among others. We see each of these classes providing valuable tools toward coalescing current gaps in the biosensing field regarding specificity, selectivity, sensitivity, and flexibility in application. Additionally, by considering the materials chemistry of enzymatically and oxidatively triggered biomaterials in tandem, we hope to encourage synthesis of new biosensors that capitalize on their synergistic roles and overlapping mechanisms in inflammatory environments for applications in disease diagnosis and monitoring.

Abstract
The utilization of enzymes as a triggering module could endow responsive polymeric nanostructures with selectivity in a site-specific manner. On the basis of the fact that endogenous NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase isozyme 1 (NQO1) is overexpressed in many types of tumors, we report on the fabrication of photosensitizer-conjugated polymeric vesicles, exhibiting synergistic NQO1-triggered turn-on of both near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence emission and a photodynamic therapy (PDT) module. For vesicles self-assembled from amphiphilic block copolymers containing quinone trimethyl lock-capped self-immolative side linkages and quinone-bridged photosensitizers (coumarin and Nile blue) in the hydrophobic block, both fluorescence emission and PDT potency are initially in the "off" state due to "double quenching" effects, that is, dye-aggregation-caused quenching and quinone-rendered PET (photoinduced electron transfer) quenching. After internalization into NQO1-positive vesicles, the cytosolic NQO1 enzyme triggers self-immolative cleavage of quinone linkages and fluorogenic release of conjugated photosensitizers, leading to NIR fluorescence emission turn-on and activated PDT. This process is accompanied by the transformation of vesicles into cross-linked micelles with hydrophilic cores and smaller sizes and triggered dual drug release, which could be directly monitored by enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for vesicles conjugated with a DOTA(Gd) complex in the hydrophobic bilayer. We further demonstrate that the above strategy could be successfully applied for activated NIR fluorescence imaging and tissue-specific PDT under both cellular and in vivo conditions.

Abstract
In this study, we present the synthesis, self-assembly, and enzyme responsive nature of a unique class of well-defined amphiphilic linear-dendritic block copolymers (PNVP-b-dendr(Phe-Lys)n, n = 1-3) based on linear poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PNVP) and dendritic phenylalanyl-lysine (Phe-Lys) dipeptides. The copolymers were prepared via a combination ofreversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) /xanthates (MADIX) polymerization of N-vinylpyrrolidone and stepwise peptide chemistry. The results of fluorescence spectroscopy, 1H NMR analyses, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and particle size analysis demonstrated that the copolymers self-assemble in aqueous solution into micellar nanocontainers that can disassemble and release encapsulated anticancer drug doxorubicin or hydrophobic dye Nile red by trigger of a serine protease trypsin under physiological conditions. The disassembly of the formed micelles and release rates of the drug or dye can be adjusted by changing the generation of dendrons in PNVP-b-dendr(Phe-Lys)n. Furthermore, the cytocompatibility of the copolymers have been confirmed using human lung epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) and human liver cancer cells (SMMC-7721). Due to the fact of their enzyme responsive properties and good biocompatibility, the copolymers may have potential applicability in smart controlled release systems capable of site-specific response.

Abstract
Aim: Our aim was to synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic norbornene-derived thiobarbiturate homopolymers (NDTH 1-4) for drug delivery. Methods: Ring-opening metathesis polymerization technique was used to prepare a series of homopolymers. The hydrophobicity is introduced by increasing the number of carbon chains ([-CH2-]n; n = 1, 2, 3 & 4) in between norbornene backbone and thiobarbiturate species. Results: These vesicular aggregates have been used as anticancer Doxorubicin drug delivery vehicles at the acidic (5.5) and physiological (7.4) pHs. Confocal laser-scanning microscopy has demonstrated that the drug-loaded vesicles are easily internalized into living cells. Conclusion: Amphiphilic norbornene-derived thiobarbiturate homopolymer assemblies showed efficient nanocarrier for effective anticancer drug delivery.

Abstract
Cancer cell expresses abundant surface receptors. These receptors are important targets for cancer treatment and imaging applications. Our goal here is to develop nanoparticles with cargo loading and tumor targeting capability. Methods: A peptide targeting at cancer cell surface receptor (urokinase receptor, uPAR) was expressed in fusion with albumin (diameter of ~7 nm), and the fusion protein was assembled into nanoparticles with diameter of 40 nm, either in the presence or absence of cargo molecules, by a novel preparation method. An important feature of this method is that the nanoparticles were stabilized by hydrophobic interaction of the fusion protein and no covalent linking agent was used in the preparation. The stability, the cargo release, in vitro and in vivo properties of such formed nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, gel shift assay, laser scanning confocal microscopy and 3D fluorescent molecular tomography. Results: The nanoparticles were stable for more than two weeks in aqueous buffer, even in the buffer containing 10% fetal bovine serum. Interestingly, in the presence of urokinase receptor, the uPAR-targeting nanoparticle disintegrated into 7.5 nm fragments and released its cargo, but not the non-targeting nanoparticles made from albumin by the same preparation method. Such nanoparticles also showed higher uptake and cytotoxicity to the receptor-expressing cancer cells in vitro and higher tumor accumulation in xenografted tumor-bearing mice in vivo compared to the non-targeting nanoparticles. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate a new function of cell surface receptor as a responsive trigger to disassemble nanoparticles, besides its common use to enrich targeting agents. Such nanoparticles were thus named receptor-responsive nanoparticles (RRNP).

Abstract
Fluorescent imaging techniques have attracted much attention as a powerful tool to realize the visualization of structural and morphological evolution of various materials. However, the traditional fluorescent dyes usually suffered from aggregation-caused quenching, which severely limits the visualization results. In contrast, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecules with high quantum yields in the condensed state showed great opportunities for imaging techniques. In this feature article, recent progresses in visualization with AIE molecules are discussed. Assembly processes including crystallization, gelation process, and dissipative assembly have been observed. To better study information obtained regarding the processes, visualization during reactions, phase transitions, and molecular motions are successfully presented. Based on these successes, AIE molecules were further applied for phase recognition, macro-dispersion evaluation, and damage detection. Finally, we also present the outlook and perspectives, in our opinion, for the development of visualization by AIE molecules.

Abstract
Herein, for rate-tunable controlled release, pH and redox dual responsive polymeric vesicles were constructed based on host-guest interaction between a water soluble pillar[5]arene (WP5) and a paraquat-containing block copolymer (BCP) in water. The yielding polymeric vesicles can be further applied in the controlled release of a hydrophilic model drug, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX). The drug release rate is regulated depending on the type of single stimulus or the combination of two stimuli. Meanwhile, DOX-loaded polymeric vesicles present anticancer activity in vitro comparable to free DOX under the studied conditions, which may be important for applications in the therapy of cancers as a controlled-release drug carrier.

Abstract
Polymeric supra-amphiphiles are amphiphiles that are fabricated by linking polymeric segments, or small molecules and polymeric segments, by noncovalent interactions or dynamic covalent bonds. Compared with conventional amphiphilic polymers, polymeric supra-amphiphiles are advantageous in that they possess dynamic features and their preparation may be to some extent more facile. Moreover, polymeric supra-amphiphiles are endowed with richer structure and higher stability compared with small-molecule supra-amphiphiles. Owing to these properties, polymeric supra-amphiphiles have so far shown great promise as surfactants, nanocarriers and in therapies. In this tutorial review, recent work on polymeric supra-amphiphiles, from molecular architectures to functional assemblies, is presented and summarized. Different polymeric supra-amphiphile topologies and related applications are highlighted. By combining polymer chemistry with supramolecular chemistry and colloid science, we anticipate that the study of polymeric supra-amphiphiles will promote the continued development of the molecular engineering of functional supramolecular systems, and lead to practical applications, especially in drug delivery.

Abstract
Oxidizing aldehydes to generate carboxylic acids is a crucial reaction in nature and in chemical industry. The aldehyde oxidation, an easily achieved process in liver cells, is inert toward autoxidation in industrial production and difficultly achieved under enzymatic condition (in water, at pH 7, at room temperature). Herein, we prepared a supramolecular catalyst which are nanospheres assembled in aqueous media by chromium centered Anderson polyoxometalates Na3[CrMo6O18(OH)3] (namely, CrMo6) and cationic pillar[5]arenes (namely, P5A) with 10 positive charges which can be used as the phase transfer catalysts (PTCs). This supramolecular catalyst was exploited on aldehydes oxidation under enzymatic condition with relatively good conversion. Through DLS monitoring, the diameters of nanospheres were variable while changing the charge ratios of the ionic complexes (P5A-CrMo6), and it is probably because of the closer charge ratios causing the more compact assemblies. Also, the nano-morphologies were monitored by TEM and SEM, and the nanostructures were characterized by zeta potential, the X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), elemental analysis.

Abstract
A smart gemini supra-amphiphile behaving with pH/CO2 dual-sensitive hierarchical self-assembly was fabricated under the effect of dynamic covalent bonds. In the presence of an amino-functionalized cation, water-insoluble terephthalaldehyde, and an amphiphilic anion, the benzoic imine bond can initiate the transformation from a single-tailed supra-amphiphile to a gemini supra-amphiphile with increasing pH, followed by the subsequent evolution from micelles to vesicles. Reversible self-assembly and disassembly of the gemini supra-amphiphile can be realized via CO2/N2 treatment, thus inducing the fission and reversion of vesicles. Interestingly, the flexible nature of supra-amphiphiles allows for the hierarchical assembly of vesicles, leading to the formation of aqueous two-phase systems. Multiple responsive supra-amphiphiles have useful applications in the fabrication of smart supra-molecular materials, including self-healing materials, nanocarriers and chemosensors.

Abstract
Polymeric micelles are demonstrating high potential as nanomedicines capable of controlling the distribution and function of loaded bioactive agents in the body, effectively overcoming biological barriers, and various formulations are engaged in intensive preclinical and clinical testing. This Review focuses on polymeric micelles assembled through multimolecular interactions between block copolymers and the loaded drugs, proteins, or nucleic acids as translationable nanomedicines. The aspects involved in the design of successful micellar carriers are described in detail on the basis of the type of polymer/payload interaction, as well as the interplay of micelles with the biological interface, emphasizing on the chemistry and engineering of the block copolymers. By shaping these features, polymeric micelles have been propitious for delivering a wide range of therapeutics through effective sensing of targets in the body and adjustment of their properties in response to particular stimuli, modulating the activity of the loaded drugs at the targeted sites, even at the subcellular level. Finally, the future perspectives and imminent challenges for polymeric micelles as nanomedicines are discussed, anticipating to spur further innovations.

Abstract
Supramolecular systems that respond to the hydrolysis of adenosine phosphates (APs) are attractive for biosensing and to fabricate bioinspired self-assembled materials. Here, we report on the formation of supramolecular complexes between an achiral guanidinium derivative bearing two pyrene moieties, with each of the three adenosine phosphates: AMP, ADP, and ATP. By combining results from circular dichroism spectroscopy and molecular modeling simulations, we explore the induced chirality, the dynamics of the complexes, and the interactions at play, which altogether provide insights into the supramolecular self-assembly between APs and the guanidinium-bispyrene. Finally, we identify the chiroptical signals of interest in mixtures of the guanidinium derivative with the three APs in different proportions. This study constitutes a basis to evolve toward a chiroptical detection of the hydrolysis of APs based on organic supramolecular probes.

Abstract
The vesicle is one of the most intriguing platforms for drug delivery, which is believed to improve drug efficacy. In the past few decades, a great deal of materials have been explored to make vesicles, including lipids, block copolymers, dendrons, erythrocyte membranes, and even DNA. Other than shape and size control, most efforts are focused on achieving certain functions, for example, an abundance of stimuli-responsive features are introduced to vesicles, which can be applied to controllable release, such as pH, redox, light, radiation, enzyme etc. Besides, crosslinking or pegylation is used to increase vesicles' stability and elongate circulation time. By incorporating affinity ligands, vesicles can further accumulate to diseased cells or tissues to achieve targeting properties. Recently, multidrug delivery is believed to show a synergy effect in cancer therapy and has become a new direction in this field. However, coloading hydrophilic-hydrophobic small molecules, oligonucleotides, and peptides in the same size- and shape-controlled vesicle through a stepwise manner with high efficiency is still challenging. Herein, a modularly designable vesicle is reported for sequential multiple loading based on frame-guided assembly, which is believed to be an outstanding platform for drug delivery in the future.
