Abstract
Multi-stimuli-responsive chromic materials have immense potential for utilization. Herein, two supramolecular inclusion complexes were prepared by self-assembly of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) with dialkylcarboxyl-substituted viologens, N,N'-di(3-carboxy-propyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium dichloride (CPV·Cl2) and N,N'-di(6-carboxy-hexyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium dibromide (CHV·Br2). The self-assembled inclusion complexes CPV2+@β-CD and CHV2+@β-CD2 in the solid-state exhibited naked-eye photochromism, thermochromism, and electrochromism in response to multiple external stimuli including light, temperature, and electric field, respectively. Solid-state UV-vis diffuse reflectance and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy revealed that the observed photochromism, thermochromism and electrochromism are attributed to the formation of viologen free radicals induced by electron transfer under external stimuli. The excellent stimuli-response chromic properties of the title inclusion complexes support their practical utility in visual display, multiple anticounterfeiting, and multilevel information encryption.

Abstract
Responsive polymer systems have the ability to change properties or behavior in response to external stimuli. The properties of responsive polymer systems can be fine-tuned by adjusting the stimuli, enabling tailored responses for specific applications. These systems have applications in drug delivery, biosensors, tissue engineering, and more, as their ability to adapt and respond to dynamic environments leads to improved performance. However, challenges such as synthesis complexity, sensitivity limitations, and manufacturing issues need to be addressed for successful implementation. In our review, we provide a comprehensive summary on stimuli-responsive polymer systems, delving into the intricacies of their mechanisms and actions. Future developments should focus on precision medicine, multifunctionality, reversibility, bioinspired designs, and integration with advanced technologies, driving the dynamic growth of sensitive polymer systems in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Luminescent Zn(II) complexes that respond to external stimuli are of wide interest due to their potential applications. Schiff base with O,N,O-hydrazone shows excellent luminescence properties with multi-coordination sites for different coordination modes. In this work, three salicylaldehyde hydrazone Zn(II) complexes (1, 2a, 2b) were synthesized and their stimuli-responsive behaviors in different states were explored. Only complex 1 exhibits reversible and self-recoverable photochromic and photoluminescence properties in solution. This may be due to the configuration eversion and the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process. In the solid state, 2a has obvious mechanochromic luminescence property, which is caused by the destruction of intermolecular interactions and the transformation from crystalline state to amorphous state. 2a and 2b have delayed fluorescence properties due to effective halogen bond interactions in structures. 2a could undergo crystal-phase transformation into its polymorphous 2b by force/vapor stimulation. Interestingly, 2b shows photochromic property, which can be attributed to the electron transfer and generation of radicals induced by UV irradiation. Due to different conformations and coordination modes, the three Zn(II) complexes show different stimuli-responsive properties. This work presents the multi-stimuli-responsive behaviors of salicylaldehyde hydrazone Zn(II) complexes in different states and discusses the response mechanism in detail, which may provide new insights into the design of multi-stimuli-responsive materials.

Breaking photoswitch activation depth limit using ionising radiation stimuli adapted to clinical application. Nat Commun 2022; 13:4102.

Abstract
Electromagnetic radiation-triggered therapeutic effect has attracted a great interest over the last 50 years. However, translation to clinical applications of photoactive molecular systems developed to date is dramatically limited, mainly because their activation requires excitation by low-energy photons from the ultraviolet to near infra-red range, preventing any activation deeper than few millimetres under the skin. Herein we conceive a strategy for photosensitive-system activation potentially adapted to biological tissues without any restriction in depth. High-energy stimuli, such as those employed for radiotherapy, are used to carry energy while molecular activation is provided by local energy conversion. This concept is applied to azobenzene, one of the most established photoswitches, to build a radioswitch. The radiation-responsive molecular system developed is used to trigger cytotoxic effect on cancer cells upon gamma-ray irradiation. This breakthrough activation concept is expected to expand the scope of applications of photosensitive systems and paves the way towards the development of original therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
It is necessary to develop stable and fast multistimuli responsive materials due to the growing demand in our daily life. In this work, a new viologen-based Cd-complex (1) exhibits multiple thermochromic and photochromic behaviors through 10 states with 7 colors. For example, it responds to both Cu Kα/Mo Kα X-ray sources and UV dual light quickly with a color change from colorless to dark blue (1X) (Cu Kα/Mo Kα X-ray sources) and cyan (1-UV) (UV light), respectively. Interestingly, it exhibits a three-step coloration phenomenon when heated, which is unprecedented in viologen compounds. Crystal 1 undergoes a color change to pink, blue, and brown under 130, 180, and 240 °C, respectively. In addition, upon fumigation, both 1P and 1Q undergo a decoloration process to colorless (1K) and yellow (1T), respectively. Four more states (1P, 1K, 1T, and 1O) obtained via dehydration-hydration treatment are all photochromic. More importantly, via single-crystal-single-crystal transformation (SC-SC), the photochromic and thermochromic behaviors of 1 were investigated from the molecular level, which is also rather rare for thermochromic species. The detailed electron donor and the pathways for electron transfer were clearly given according to the results of crystal structure. The colorful states upon external stimuli may be attributed to the multiple pathways for electron transfer.

Abstract
Smart materials are highly desirable over the recent decade due to the growing demand of complicated nature. Stable stimuli-responsive smart materials exhibit widespread potential for applications in smart windows, sensors, separators, chemical valves, and release platforms but are rare. Despite being good candidates, viologen-based multifunctional smart materials are still a challenging task for chemists. To obtain such materials, the judicious strategy is to introduce polynuclear metal-carboxylate clusters as electron donors into a stable framework to increase chromic sensitivity. Toward this endeavor, we have synthesized a novel viologen-based polymer with a unique Anderson-like metal-carboxylate cluster, [Zn7(bpybc)3(o-BDC)6]·2NO3·6H2O (bpybc = 1,1'-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium, o-BDC = o-benzenedicarboylic acid) (1), which is a particular 7-fold interpenetrated framework with a 3D pcu network in which bpybc ligand as the linker and Zn7O30C12 as the second building unit (Zn7 SBU) were used as 6-connected nodes. More importantly, it shows excellent chromic behavior in response to multiple external stimuli especially soft X-ray and UV dual light, temperature, electricity, and organic amines, which stand out in the viologen-based polymers. Interestingly, the coloration process of 1 from "core" to "edge" is observed upon heating at the appropriate temperature, which has not yet been found in other reported thermochromic materials. Of particular interest for 1 is the couple of quaternary stimuli-sensitive abilities because it simultaneously meets the following conditions: (i) the capability of withstanding high light, higher temperature, extreme pH, and other harsh conditions; and (ii) the high sensitivity to external stimuli keeping away from photodegradation, thermal relaxation, side reactions, and so on. To be noted, 1 has high thermal stability and chemical stability, which are excellent advantages as smart materials. To further develop possible practical utilization, 1 has been doped into the polymer matrixes to construct a hybrid film, which not only keeps the response to external stimuli but also significantly improves the repeatability of the photochromic process, indicating that a new smart device with multi-stimuli-responsive functions will emerge successively in the future.

Abstract
Symmetrical cyclodextrin-based 14-arm star polymers with poly(ethylene glycol) PEG branches were synthesized and characterized. Interactions of the star polymers with lipid bilayers were studied by the "black lipid membrane" technique in order to demonstrate the formation of monomolecular artificial channels. The conditions for the insertion are mainly based on dimensions and amphiphilic properties of the star polymers, in particular the molar mass of the water-soluble polymer branches. Translocation of single-strand DNA (ssDNA) through those synthetic nanopores was investigated, and the close dimension between the cross-section of ssDNA and the cyclodextrin cavity led to an energy barrier that slowed down the translocation process.

Thus they can be utilized to write binary data. Furthermore, the open form can emit luminescence but the closed cannot while irradiated by another light that cannot cause optical chemical reactions. Therefore, data can be read out without damage.

Abstract
Azobenzene-contained glycolipids GlyAzoCns, newly structured azobenzene derivatives, which have an azobenzene moiety between the galactosyl and carbon chains of various sizes, have been synthesized. The GlyAzoCns undergo reversible photoinduced isomerization in both ethanol solution (free state) and liposomal bilayer (restricted state) upon irradiation with UV and vis light alternately. The drug release of Liposome@Gly induced by isomerization was found to be an instantaneous behavior. The photoinduced control of DOX release from liposome was investigated in various modes. The Liposome@Glys have been found to keep the entrapped DOX stably in the dark with less than 10% leakage in 10 h but release nearly 100% of cargos instantaneously with UV irradiation. The molecular structure of GlyAzoCns and the property of the liposomal bilayer were considered as important factors influencing drug release. Among the synthesized GlyAzoCns, GlyAzoC7 was shown to be the most efficient photosensitive actuator for controlling drug release. A lower proportion of cholesterol in Liposome@Glys was conducive to promote the release amount. Results indicated that the synthesized GlyAzoCns could act as a role of smart actuators in the liposome bilayer and control the drug to release temporarily and quantitatively.

Abstract
We present a novel approach to reversibly control the assembly of liposomes through an anchored multistimuli responsive DNA oligonucleotide decorated with an azobenzene moiety (AZO-ON1). We show that liposomes assembly can be simultaneously controlled by three external stimuli: light, Mg(2+), and temperature. (i) Light alters the interaction of AZO-ON1 with liposomes, which influences DNA coating and consequently liposomes assembly. (ii) Mg(2+) induces the assembly, hence variation in its concentration enables for reversibility. (iii) Double-stranded AZO-ON1 is more efficient than single-stranded AZO-ON1 in triggering the assembly of liposomes and temperature has been used for controllable assembly through DNA thermal denaturation. Our multiresponsive AZO-ON1 represents a unique example in which multiple stimuli can be simultaneously applied to regulate the reversible assembly of liposomes.

Abstract
Antimicrobial and cell-penetrating peptides have inspired developments of abiotic membrane-active polymers that can coat, penetrate, or break lipid bilayers in model systems. Application to cell cultures is more recent, but remarkable bioactivities are already reported. Synthetic polymer chains were tailored to achieve (i) high biocide efficiencies, and selectivity for bacteria (Gram-positive/Gram-negative or bacterial/mammalian membranes), (ii) stable and mild encapsulation of viable isolated cells to escape immune systems, (iii) pH-, temperature-, or light-triggered interaction with cells. This review illustrates these recent achievements highlighting the use of abiotic polymers, and compares the major structural determinants that control efficiency of polymers and peptides. Charge density, sp. of cationic and guanidinium side groups, and hydrophobicity (including polarity of stimuli-responsive moieties) guide the design of new copolymers for the handling of cell membranes. While polycationic chains are generally used as biocidal or hemolytic agents, anionic amphiphilic polymers, including Amphipols, are particularly prone to mild permeabilization and/or intracell delivery.

Abstract
If we look at a simple organism such as a zebrafish under a microscope, we would see many cells working in harmony. If we zoomed in, we would observe each unit performing its own tasks in a special aqueous environment isolated from the other units by a lipid bilayer approximately 5 nm thick. These confined units are social: they communicate with one another by sensing and responding to the chemical changes in their environment through receptors and ion channels. These channels control the highly specific and selective passage of ions from one side of the cell to the other and are embedded in lipid bilayers. The movement of ions through ion channels supports excitation and electrical signaling in the nervous system. Ion channels have fascinated scientists not only because of their specificity and selectivity, but also for their functions, the serious consequences when they malfunction, and the other potential applications of these molecules. Light is a useful trigger to control and manipulate ion channels externally. With the many state-of-the-art optical technologies available, light offers a high degree of spatial and temporal control, millisecond precision, and noninvasive intervention and does not change the chemical environment of the system of interest. In this Account, we discuss research toward the dynamic control of lipid bilayer assembly and channel function, particularly the transport across the lipid bilayer-ion channel barrier of cells using light. We first summarize the manipulation of ion channel activity with light to modulate the channel's natural activity. Based on the type of photoswitch employed, we can achieve novel functionalities with these channels, and control neural activity. Then we discuss the recent developments in light-induced transport through lipid bilayers. We focus on three different approaches: the incorporation of photoswitchable copolymers into the lipids, the doping of the lipid bilayer with photosensitive amphiphiles and the preparation of the lipid bilayers solely from photoswitchable lipids. These examples reflect the versatility of what we can achieve by manipulating biological systems with light, from triggering the permeability of a specific area of a lipid bilayer to controlling the behavior of a whole organism.

Abstract
Photolysis of 6-bromo-7-hydroxycoumarinyl-caged ceramide was used to generate ceramide with spatial and temporal control in supported lipid bilayers prepared from mixtures of caged ceramide and phospholipids. The caged ceramide molecules are randomly distributed in fluid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) bilayers, and upon photolysis with long wavelength UV light small ordered ceramide domains are formed that phase separate from the bulk fluid membrane. Irradiation of a spatially restricted area leads to the transient formation of ceramide-enriched gel phase domains that equilibrate via lipid diffusion with the surrounding unirradiated membrane. Photorelease of C16-ceramide in supported bilayers prepared from POPC, caged ceramide and the ganglioside GM1 (90:10:1 molar ratio) results in partitioning of a ganglioside-protein complex into the ceramide-enriched domains, modeling some aspects of ceramide's behavior in cells. The photo-uncaging strategy used here for delivery of ceramide in bilayers provides a novel and useful alternative to the enzymatic generation of ceramide in sphingomyelin-containing membranes. The ability to control membrane phase separation behavior and the clustering of membrane-anchored proteins illustrates the potential of photo-uncaging for studying the compartmentalization of ceramide in cellular membranes.

Abstract
6-Bromo-7-hydroxycoumarin (Bhc)-caged ceramide (Cer) analogs were incorporated into supported lipid bilayers containing a mixture of coexisting liquid-ordered (Lo) and liquid-disordered (Ld) phases. The release of N-palmitoyl and N-butanoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine (C16- and C4-Cer) by the photolysis of caged Cers using long-wavelength UV light was studied using a combination of atomic force microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. This approach demonstrated the ability to generate Cer with spatial and temporal control, providing an alternative method to the enzymatic generation of Cer. The generation of C16-Cer from Bhc-C16-Cer disrupted the Lo domains, with the incorporation of small fluid-phase regions and the disappearance of some smaller domains. Cer-rich gel-phase domains were not observed, in contrast to results reported by either direct Cer incorporation or enzymatic Cer generation. The photorelease of C4-Cer from Bhc-C4-Cer resulted in qualitatively similar changes in bilayer morphology, with the disappearance of some Lo domains and no evidence of Cer-rich gel domains but with a smaller height difference between the ordered and disordered phases.
