Abstract
The design of functional polymers coupled with stimuli-triggered drug release mechanisms is a promising achievement to overcome various biological barriers. pH trigger methods yield significant potential for controlled targeting and release of therapeutics due to their simplicity and relevance, especially upon cell internalization. Here, we introduce reactive polymers that conjugate primary or secondary amines and release potential drugs under acidic conditions. For that purpose, we introduced methacrylamide-based monomers with pendant 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride groups. Such groups allow the conjugation of primary and secondary amines but are resistant to radical polymerization conditions. We, therefore, polymerized 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride amide-based methacrylates via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Their amine-reactive anhydrides could sequentially be derivatized by primary or secondary amines into hydrophilic polymers. Acidic pH-triggered drug release from the polymeric systems was fine-tuned by comparing different amines. Thereby, the conjugation of primary amines led to the formation of irreversible imide bonds in dimethyl sulfoxide, while secondary amines could quantitatively be released upon acidification. In vitro, this installed pH-responsiveness can contribute to an effective release of conjugated immune stimulatory drugs under endosomal pH conditions. Interestingly, the amine-modified polymers generally showed no toxicity and a high cellular uptake. Furthermore, secondary amine-modified immune stimulatory drugs conjugated to the polymers yielded better receptor activity and immune cell maturation than their primary amine derivatives due to their pH-sensitive drug release mechanism. Consequently, 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride-based polymers can be considered as a versatile platform for pH-triggered delivery of various (immuno)drugs, thus enabling new strategies in macromolecule-assisted immunotherapy.

Abstract
BODIPY (4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene) dyes are regarded as highly useful compounds due to their rich photophysical properties, stability, and ease of functionalization. In recent years, hot topics studied with this class of compounds are targeted photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, fluorescent bioimaging agents, structural modification of the BODIPY core, synthesis of BODIPY analogs, and BODIPY-based supramolecular constructs. This review covers the advances in BODIPY structures substituted with additional carbon-nitrogen double bonds, namely imines, hydrazones, oximes, and related derivatives for various applications. Works based on fluorescent indicators of anions, cations, and neutral molecules are included in this review. In addition, the use of such structures for pharmaceutical applications, photodynamic therapy, fluorescent switches, and fluorescent building blocks are also investigated. In addition to covering the major literature within the mentioned subclass, design principles, working mechanisms, and outlooks are also provided to enlighten forthcoming promising efforts. With this work, we aim to provide insights about the synthesis, photophysical properties, contribution of C=N bonds to a class of dye, and possible areas of use and stimulate researchers to present new ideas and overcome the current problems using these derivatives.

Abstract
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded in 1987 and 2016 for research in supramolecular chemistry on the "development and use of molecules with structure-specific interactions of high selectivity" and the "design and production of molecular machines", respectively. This confirmed the explosive development of supramolecular chemistry. In addition, attempts have been made in systems chemistry to embody the complex functions of living organisms as artificial non-equilibrium chemical systems, which have not received much attention in supramolecular chemistry. In this review, we explain recent developments in supramolecular chemistry through four categories: stimuli-responsiveness, time evolution, dissipative self-assembly, and hierarchical expression of functions. We discuss the development of non-equilibrium supramolecular systems, including the use of molecules with precisely designed properties, to achieve functions found in life as a hierarchical chemical system.

Abstract
Polylysine and materials that integrate lysine form promising drug delivery platforms. As a cationic macromolecule, a polylysine polymer electrostatically interacts with cells and is efficiently internalized, thereby enabling intracellular delivery. Although polylysine is intrinsically pH-responsive, the conjugation with different functional groups imparts smart, stimuli-responsive traits by adding pH-, temperature-, hypoxia-, redox-, and enzyme-responsive features for enhanced delivery of therapeutic agents. Because of such characteristics, polylysine has been used to deliver various cargos such as small-molecule drugs, genes, proteins, and imaging agents. Furthermore, modifying contrast agents with polylysine has been shown to improve performance, including increasing cellular uptake and stability. In this review, the use of lysine residues, peptides, and polymers in various drug delivery systems has been discussed comprehensively to provide insight into the design and robust manufacturing of lysine-based delivery platforms.

Rational design of dynamic imine surfactants for oil-water emulsions: Learning from oil-induced reversible dynamic imine bond formation. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 607:163-170.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Dynamic imine surfactants (DIS) can be constructed by the formation of dynamic imine bonds (Dibs) between aromatic aldehydes and aliphatic amines in water. Because of the nature of Dibs in water, a thermodynamic equilibrium state was achieved between the DIS and aldehyde and amine precursors to form a dynamic combinatorial library (DCL). When the DIS served as sole emulsifier to form oil-H2O emulsions, the precursors migrated between the H2O phase and the oil phase, which altered the DCL equilibrium. The DIS concentration and emulsion stability also changed. EXPERIMENTS By mixing 4-(2-sulfobetaine-ethoxy)-benzaldehyde (SBBA) and aliphatic amines of CnH2n+1NH2 (n = 4, BA; n = 6, HA; n = 8, OA; n = 10, DA) in water, four amphoteric DIS (SBBA-BA/HA/OA/DA) were prepared. Dib formation was characterized using 1H NMR. The DIS surface activity was studied by surface tension and fluorescence probe methods. The reversible switching of DIS and its wormlike micelles were explored. FINDINGS SBBA-OA (or SBBA-DA) DIS was not a suitable emulsifier for stable hydrocarbon (HC)-H2O emulsions. OA and DA were more soluble in the HC phase than the H2O phase. The precursors of OA and DA migrated from the H2O to the HC phase, and the thermodynamic equilibrium state of DCL shifted towards Dib dissociation. The Dib could be regenerated by HC phase removal. A novel strategy where volatile HC (such as pentane) was used as a trigger was developed to switch the DIS reversibly and its self-assemblies (such as wormlike micelles) in water without inorganic salt accumulation. The SBBA-HA (or SBBA-BA) DIS was a suitable emulsifier for stable emulsions because HA and BA were more soluble in the H2O phase.

Abstract
As a paramount factor to restrict the potential action of drugs and biologics, nanoplatforms based on dynamic covalent chemistry have been demonstrated as promising candidates to fulfill the full requirements during the whole delivery process by the virtue of their remarkable features such as adaptiveness, stimuli-responsiveness, specificity, reversibility and feasibility. This contribution summarizes the latest progress in dynamic covalent bond-based nanoplatforms with improved delivery efficiency and therapeutic performance. In addition, major challenges and perspectives in this field are also discussed. We expect that this feature article will provide a valuable and systematic reference for the further development of dynamic covalent bond-based nanoplatforms.

Abstract
Amphiphilic imines prepared by condensation of a hydrophobic fragrance aldehyde with a hydrophilic amine derived from a poly(propylene oxide) and poly(ethylene oxide) diblock copolymer were investigated as cleavable surfactant profragrances in applications of functional perfumery. In water, the cleavable surfactants assemble into micelles that allow solubilization of perfume molecules that are not covalently attached to the surfactant. Dynamic headspace analysis on a glass surface showed that solubilized perfume molecules evaporated in a similar manner in the presence of the cleavable surfactant as compared with a non-cleavable reference surfactant. Under application conditions, the cleavable surfactant imine hydrolysed to release the covalently linked fragrance aldehyde. The profragrances were stable during storage in aqueous media, and upon dilution showed a blooming effect for the hydrolytical fragrance release and a more balanced performance of a solubilized perfume by retaining the more volatile fragrances and boosting the evaporation of the less volatile fragrances.

Abstract
Despite their intrinsic hydrolysable character, imine bonds can become remarkably stable in water when self-assembled in amphiphilic micellar structures. In this work, we systematically studied some of these structures and the influence of various parameters that can be used to take control of their hydrolysis, including pH, concentration, the position of the imine function in the amphiphilic structure, relative lengths of the linked hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties. Thermodynamic and kinetic data led us to the rational design of stable imines in water, partly based on the location of the imine function within the hydrophobic part of the amphiphile and on a predictable quantitative term that we define as the total hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB). In addition, we show that such stable systems are also stimuli-responsive and therefore, of potential interest in trapping and releasing micellar components on demand.

Abstract
Developing solid-free nanoemulsions with pH responsiveness is desirable in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) applications. Here, we report the synthesis of an interfacial activity controllable surfactant (T−DBA) through dynamic imine bonding between taurine (T) and p-decyloxybenzaldehyde (DBA). Instead of macroemulsions, nanoemulsions can be prepared by using T−DBA as an emulsifier. The dynamic imine bond of T−DBA enables switching between the active and inactive states in response to pH. This switching of interfacial activity was used to gate the stability of nanoemulsions, thus enabling us to turn the nanoemulsions off and on. Using such dynamic imine bonds to govern nanoemulsion stability could enable intelligent control of many processes such as heavy oil recovery and interfacial reactions.

Abstract
Multi antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections are on the rise due to the overuse of antibiotics. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the pathogens listed under the category of serious threats where vancomycin remains the mainstay treatment despite the availability of various antibacterial agents. Recently, decreased susceptibility to vancomycin from clinical isolates of MRSA has been reported and has drawn worldwide attention as it is often difficult to overcome and leads to increased medical costs, mortality, and longer hospital stays. Development of antibiotic delivery systems is often necessary to improve bioavailability and biodistribution, in order to reduce antibiotic resistance and increase the lifespan of antibiotics. Liposome entrapment has been used as a method to allow higher drug dosing apart from reducing toxicity associated with drugs. The surface of the liposomes can also be designed and enhanced with drug-release properties, active targeting, and stealth effects to prevent recognition by the mononuclear phagocyte system, thus enhancing its circulation time. The present review aimed to highlight the possible targeting strategies of liposomes against MRSA bacteremia systemically while investigating the magnitude of this effect on the minimum inhibitory concentration level.

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
Solid tumors form a permissive microenvironment with irregular features, including high pressured tumor interstitial fluid with acidic pH, co-adaptation of cancer cells with other cells like the immune system cells, abnormal metabolism and anomalous overexpression of various pieces of molecular machinery. The functional expressions of several oncomarkers in different solid tumors have led to the development of targeted drug-delivery systems (DDSs). As a new class of DDSs, stimuli-responsive nanomedicines (SRNMs) have been developed using advanced nanobiomaterials such as biopolymers that show excellent biocompatibility with low inherent immunogenicity. In this review, we aim to overview different types of SRNMs, present deep insights into the stimuli-responsive biopolymers and discuss the most up-to-date progress in the design and development of SRNMs used as advanced DDSs for targeted therapy of cancer.

Abstract
The bottom-up approach of supramolecular polymerization is an effective synthetic method for functional organic nanostructures. However, the uncontrolled growth and polydisperse structural outcome often lead to low functional efficiency. Thus, precise control over the structural characteristics of supramolecular polymers is the current scientific hurdle. Research so far has tended to focus on systems with inherent kinetic control by the presence of metastable state monomers either through conformational molecular design or by exploring pathway complexity. The need of the hour is to create generic strategies for dormant states of monomers that can be extended to different molecules and various structural organizations and dimensions. Here we venture to demonstrate chemical reaction-driven cooperative supramolecular polymerization as an alternative strategy for the controlled synthesis of organic two-dimensional nanostructures. In our approach, the dynamic imine bond is exploited to convert a non-assembling dormant monomer to an activated amphiphilic structure in a kinetically controlled manner. The chemical reaction governed retarded nucleation-elongation growth provides control over dispersity and size.

Abstract
Cell membrane-cloaked nanotechnology has attracted increasing attention owing to its unique bionic properties, such as specific recognition and biocompatibility conferred by the integrated membrane structure and receptors. However, this technology is limited by the dissociation of the cell membrane from its carrier. Here, we report a novel type of cell membrane-cloaked modified magnetic nanoparticle with good stability in drug discovery. High α1A-adrenergic receptor (α1A-AR) expressing HEK293 cell membrane-cloaked magnetic nanogrippers (α1A/MNGs) were used as a platform for the specific targeting and binding of α1A-AR antagonists as candidate bioactive compounds from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Furthermore, using a dynamic covalent bonding approach, α1A/MNGs showed great stability with positive control drug recoveries of α1A/MNGs showing almost no decline after use in five adsorption-desorption cycles. Moreover, the α1A/MNGs possessed a unilamellar membrane with magnetic features and exhibited good binding capacity and selectivity. Ultimately, TCM and pharmacological studies of the bioactivity of the screened compounds confirmed the considerable targeting and binding capability of α1A/MNGs. Application of aldehyde group modification in this drug-targeting concept further improved biomaterial stability and paves the way for the development of new drug discovery strategies. More importantly, the successful application of α1A/MNGs provides new insights into methodologies to improve the integration of cell membranes with the nanoparticle platform.

Abstract
The acidic microenvironments of tumor tissue and cells provide an opportunity for the development of pH-responsive drug delivery systems in cancer therapy. In this work, we designed a calcium carbonate (CaCO3)-core-crosslinked nanoparticle of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(l-glutamic acid) through mineralization for intracellular delivery of doxorubicin (DOX), referred to as CaNP/DOX. CaNP/DOX exhibited high drug loading capability, uniform nanoparticle size, and pH-dependent DOX release. In the meantime, the enhanced cell uptake, superior cytotoxicity toward mouse osteosarcoma K7 cells, extended circulation half-life, and improved accumulation of DOX in K7 allograft tumor from CaNP/DOX were also demonstrated. More interestingly, CaNP/DOX displayed improved antitumor effect and reduced side effects against the K7 osteosarcoma-allografted mouse model and the 143B orthotopic osteosarcoma mouse model. Given the superior properties of Ca-mineralized polypeptide nanoparticle for intracellular drug delivery, the smart drug delivery system showed strong competitiveness in clinical chemotherapy of cancers. A doxorubicin-loaded calcium carbonate-crosslinked polypeptide nanoparticle (CaNP/DOX) is prepared by mineralization. CaNP/DOX with high drug-loading efficiency and uniform nanoparticle size is developed for intracellular drug delivery in osteosarcoma chemotherapy. CaNP/DOX exhibits prolonged circulation half-life and upregulated intratumoral accumulation. CaNP/DOX shows enhanced antitumor efficacy and reduced side effects toward subcutaneous and orthotopic osteosarcoma models in mice. CaNP/DOX demonstrates great potential in the clinical chemotherapy of various cancers.

Abstract
Polymeric micelles have great potential in drug delivery systems because of their multifunctional adjustability, excellent stability, and biocompatibility. To further increase the drug loading efficiency and controlled release ability, a pH-responsive hyperbranched copolymer methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-polyethyleneimine-poly(Nε-Cbz-l-lysine) (MPEG-PEI-PBLL) was synthesized successfully. MPEG-PEI-NH2 was synthesized to initiate the ring-opening polymerization of benzyloxycarbonyl substituted lysine N-carboxyanhydride (Z-lys NCA). The introduction of Schiff bases in the polymer make it possible to respond to the variation of pH values, which cleaved at pH 5.0 while stable at pH 7.4. As the polymer was amphiphilic, MPEG-PEI-PBLL could self-assemble into micelles. Owing to the introduction of PEI, which make the copolymer hyperbranched, the pH-responsive micelles could efficiently encapsulate theranostic agents, such as doxorubicin (DOX) for chemotherapy and NIRF dye DiD for in vivo near-infrared (NIR) imaging. The drug delivery system prolonged the drug circulation time in blood and allowed the drug accumulate effectively at the tumor site. Following the guidance, the DOX was applied in chemotherapy to achieve cancer therapeutic efficiency. All the results demonstrate that the polymer micelles have great potential for cancer theranostics.

Abstract
In the last decade, considerable attention has been devoted to the use of biodegradable polymeric materials as potential drug delivery carriers. However, bioavailability and drug release at the disease site remain uncontrollable even with the use of polymeric nanocarriers. To address this issue, successful methodologies have been developed to synthesize polymeric nanocarriers incorporated with regions exhibiting a response to stimuli such as redox potential, temperature, pH, and light. The resultant stimuli-responsive polymeric nanocarriers have shown tremendous promise in drug delivery applications, owing to their ability to enhance the bioavailability of drugs at the disease site. In such systems, drug release is controlled in response to specific stimuli, either exogenous or endogenous. This review reports recent advances in the design of stimuli-responsive nanocarriers for drug delivery in cancer therapy. In particular, the synthetic methodologies investigated to date to introduce different types of stimuli-responsive elements within the biomaterials are described. The sufficient understanding of these stimuli-responsive nanocarriers will allow the development of a better drug delivery system that will allow us to solve the challenges encountered in targeted cancer therapy.

Abstract
Self-assembling peptide-based nanodrug delivery systems (NDDs), consisting of naturally occurring amino acids, not only share the advantages of traditional nanomedicine but also possess the unique properties of excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, flexible responsiveness, specific biological function, and synthetic feasibility. Physical methods, enzymatic reaction, chemical reaction, and biosurface induction can yield versatile peptide-based NDDs; flexible responsiveness is their main advantage. Different functional peptides and abundant covalent modifications endow such systems with precise controllability and multifunctionality. Inspired by the above merits, researchers have taken advantage of the self-assembling peptide-based NDDs and achieved the accurate delivery of drugs to the lesion site. The present review outlines the methods for designing self-assembling peptide-based NDDs for small-molecule drugs, with an emphasis on the different drug delivery strategies and their applications in using peptides and peptide conjugates.

Abstract
Smart nano-carriers have attained great significance in the biomedical field due to their versatile and interesting designs with different functionalities. The initial stages of the development of nanocarriers mainly focused on the guest loading efficiency, biocompatibility of the host and the circulation time. Later the requirements of less side effects with more efficacy arose by attributing targetability and stimuli-responsive characteristics to nano-carriers along with their bio- compatibility. Researchers are utilizing many stimuli-responsive polymers for the better release of the guest molecules at the targeted sites. Among these, pH-triggered release achieves increasing importance because of the pH variation in different organ and cancer cells of acidic pH. This specific feature is utilized to release the guest molecules more precisely in the targeted site by designing polymers having specific functionality with the pH dependent morphology change characteristics. In this review, we mainly concert on the pH-responsive polypeptides and some interesting nano-carrier designs for the effective theranostic applications. Also, emphasis is made on pharmaceutical application of the different nano-carriers with respect to the organ, tissue and cellular level pH environment.

Abstract
Most of the chemical hydrogels are stretchable, and deformed hydrogels may be recovered when the strain is removed. Such a hydrogel with viscoelastic property cannot be remolded under mild conditions. Here, we demonstrated that a combination of dual reversible cross-linking with different relaxation time scales could be used to develop a remoldable hydrogel responding to mild external stress. We fabricated the hydrogel with the surface-primary amine-rich silica nanodots (ca. 2.0 nm) and benzaldehyde-terminated poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide) (PPO)-poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymers (BAF127) at low temperature (<10 °C) to form the chemical cross-linking by Schiff-base bonding. Increasing temperature (>15 °C) induced the formation of physical cross-linking between the hydrophobic PPO segments. The latter network is weak and shows fast relaxation, whereas the former shows slow relaxation. The unique structural characteristics provides this hydrogel high stretchability and self-healability, as well as moldability. In particular, we demonstrated that this transparent hydrogel can keep the fine three-dimensional patterns of a fingerprint, which may be applied for collecting digital information of fingerprints for identification.

Abstract
Assembly processes can drive the selection of self-assembling molecules in dynamic combinatorial libraries, yielding self-synthesizing materials. We now show how such selection in a dynamic combinatorial library made from an amphiphilic building block which, by itself, assembles into micelles, can yield membranous aggregates ranging from vesicles to sponge phases. These aggregates are made from a mixture of unconventional surfactant molecules, showing the power of dynamic combinatorial selection approaches for the discovery of new, not readily predictable, self-assembly motifs.

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
Facile control over preparation of organic building blocks and self-assembled aggregations to construct the desired materials remains challenges. This article reports selective dynamic covalent bonds formation and the corresponding self-assembly behaviors by using a dipeptide, glycylglycine (GlyGly), reacting with isomeric aromatic dialdehydes o-phthalaldehyde (OPA), p-phthalaldehyde (PPA), and m-phthalaldehyde (MPA) to demonstrate diversified aggregation forms caused by structure topology variations. Under alkaline condition, the aldehyde groups of phthalaldehydes can be connected with the amino groups of GlyGly by imine bonds as the dynamic chemical bonds. Owing to the fact that formation and dissociation of the imine bonds were reversibly pH-responsive, the reactions and aggregates assembled by their products were also reversibly controlled by changing pH. Three products, including two-armed product (OPGG, in which two GlyGly molecules were connected with one OPA molecule), single-armed product (PPG, in which only one GlyGly molecule was connected with a PPA molecule), and a mixture product (MPGG and MPG), as well as their different self-assembly behaviors, were obtained from OPA/GlyGly, PPA/GlyGly, and MPA/GlyGly systems, respectively, at the same condition of pH 8.6 in 90% methanol aqueous solution. However, for OPA/GlyGly system, another different type of product with benzopyrrole structure (OPG) was obtained by nucleophilic substitution via mixing OPA and GlyGly in water, which generated organic nanoparticles. Based on the results above, we conjectured the differences in dynamic covalent bond formation and supramolecular assembly clearly were influenced by the structure topologies of phthalaldehydes (OPA, PPA, and MPA). The experimental phenomenon verified the hypothesis as well, which may guide us to realize facile construction of selective reaction products and intelligent reversibly responsive materials with diverse morphologies and functions.

Abstract
The conventional chemotherapeutic agents, used for cancer chemotherapy, have major limitations including non-specificity, ubiquitous biodistribution, low concentration in tumor tissue, and systemic toxicity. In recent years, owing to their unique features, polymeric nanoparticles have been widely used for the target-specific delivery of drugs in the body. Although polymeric nanoparticles have addressed a number of important issues, the bioavailability of drugs at the disease site, and especially upon cellular internalization, remains a challenge. A polymer nanocarrier system with a stimuli-responsive property (e.g., pH, temperature, or redox potential), for example, would be amenable to address the intracellular delivery barriers by taking advantage of pH, temperature, or redox potentials. With a greater understanding of the difference between normal and pathological tissues, there is a highly promising role of stimuli-responsive nanocarriers for drug delivery in the future. In this review, we highlighted the recent advances in different types of stimuli-responsive polymers for drug delivery.

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
Dynamic covalent surfactants have been recently reported for preparation of pH-switchable emulsions [ Sun , D. Langmuir , 2017 , 33 , 3040 ]. In this study, dynamic covalent silica (SiO2-B) nanoparticles of switchable wettability were fabricated by a pH-responsive dynamic (covalent) imine bond between hydrophilic amino silica (SiO2-NH2) nanoparticles and hydrophobic benzaldehyde molecules. The properties of SiO2-B were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, contact angle measurement, and ζ potential measurement. The hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of SiO2-B were shown to be readily switchable by adjusting pH between 7.8 and 3.5. At pH 7.8, SiO2-B was partially hydrophobic and adsorbed at oil-water interface to stabilize O/W Pickering emulsions, which were characterized by electrical conductivity, optical microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Upon lowering the pH to 3.5, the dynamic covalent bond is dissociated to convert partially hydrophobic SiO2-B into highly hydrophilic SiO2-NH2 and surface-inactive benzaldehyde. Both of them desorb from oil-water interface, resulting in a rapid oil-water separation of the Pickering emulsions. Alternating stabilization and phase separation of the Pickering emulsions over 3 cycles were demonstrated by adjusting the pH. The pH-switchable Pickering emulsions show great potential in application to effective oil-water separation of emulsions.

Abstract
Nanotechnology-based antitumor drug delivery systems, known as nanocarriers, have demonstrated their efficacy in recent years. Typically, the size of the nanocarriers is around 100 nm. It is imperative to achieve an optimum size of these nanocarriers which must be designed uniquely for each type of delivery process. For pH-responsive nanocarriers with programmable size, changes in pH (~6.5 for tumor tissue, ~5.5 for endosomes, and ~5.0 for lysosomes) may serve as an endogenous stimulus improving the safety and therapeutic efficacy of antitumor drugs. This review focuses on current advanced pH-responsive nanocarriers with programmable size changes for anticancer drug delivery. In particular, pH-responsive mechanisms for nanocarrier retention at tumor sites, size reduction for penetrating into tumor parenchyma, escaping from endo/lysosomes, and swelling or disassembly for drug release will be highlighted. Additional trends and challenges of employing these nanocarriers in future clinical applications are also addressed.

Abstract
A three-dimensional (3D) inverse opal with periodic and porous structures has shown great potential for applications not only in optics and optoelectronics, but also in functional membranes. In this work, the benzaldehyde group was initially introduced into a 3D nanoporous inverse opal, serving as a platform for fabricating functional membranes. By employing the dynamic covalent approach, a highly controllable gating system was facilely fabricated to achieve modulable and reversible transport features. It was found that the physical/chemical properties and pore size of the gating system could easily be regulated through post-modification with amines. As a demonstration, the gated nanopores were modified with three kinds of amines to control the wettability, surface charge and nanopore size which in turn was exploited to achieve selective mass transport, including hydrophobic molecules, cations and anions, and the transport with respect to the physical steric hindrance. In particular, the gating system showed extraordinary reversibility and could recover to its pristine state by simply changing pH values. Due to the unlimited variety provided by the Schiff base reaction, the inverse opal described here exhibits a significant extendibility and could be easily post-modified with stimuli-responsive molecules for special purposes. Furthermore, this work can be extended to employ other dynamic covalent routes, for example Diels-Alder, ester exchange and disulfide exchange-based routes.

Abstract
The construction of quickly dissociating containers holding bioactive components that meet the extreme requirements of emergency treatment is highly desirable but remains a great challenge. Here the use of small-molecule-induced dynamic covalent assembly is reported for simple and tunable fabrication of a biocompatible diphenylalanine-based nanocontainer toward rapidly responsive cargo delivery. The assembled nanocontainer can adaptively encapsulate various charged or neutral molecules. Upon biofluid trigger, the encapsulated molecules and bioactive proteins are released in a burst (within 5 s) from the nanocontainer due to highly sensitive deprotonation-mediated disruption of hydrogen bonding. This highlighted feature allows the nanocontainer as an excellent "fast dissolving" delivery vehicle available in spray dosage form for medical emergencies, as demonstrated by in vivo application for massive hemorrhage.

Abstract
Dynamic covalent surfactants were designed to prepare pH switchable emulsions. A dynamic covalent bond between nonamphiphilic building blocks (polyethylenimine (PEI) and benzaldehyde (B)) was introduced to form the dynamic covalent surfactant PEI-B. The dynamic nature of covalent bond in PEI-B was confirmed by 1H NMR and fluorescence probe analysis. Stable emulsions were successfully prepared with interfacial active PEI-B at pH 7.8 with various water/paraffin oil ratios under sonication. When lowering the pH to 3.5, a complete phase separation was observed as a result of breaking dynamic covalent bond in the interfacial active PEI-B. After tuning the pH back to 7.8, stable emulsion was obtained again due to the reformation of the dynamic covalent bond and hence interfacial active PEI-B. The emulsification and demulsification were dependent on the formation and breaking of dynamic covalent bond in PEI-B. Such pH-triggered emulsification and demulsification can be switched at least three times. Application of dynamic covalent surfactants will open up a novel route for preparing responsive emulsions.
