Abstract
Synthetic polypeptides are biocompatible and biodegradable macromolecules whose composition and architecture can vary over a wide range. Their unique ability to form secondary structures, as well as different pathways of modification and biofunctionalization due to the diversity of amino acids, provide variation in the physicochemical and biological properties of polypeptide-containing materials. In this review article, we summarize the advances in the synthesis of polypeptides and their copolymers and the application of these systems for drug delivery in the form of (nano)particles or hydrogels. The issues, such as the diversity of polypeptide-containing (nano)particle types, the methods for their preparation and drug loading, as well as the influence of physicochemical characteristics on stability, degradability, cellular uptake, cytotoxicity, hemolysis, and immunogenicity of polypeptide-containing nanoparticles and their drug formulations, are comprehensively discussed. Finally, recent advances in the development of certain drug nanoformulations for peptides, proteins, gene delivery, cancer therapy, and antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory systems are summarized.

Abstract
Sulfur-containing polypeptides, capable of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive structural change, are one of the most important building blocks for the construction of polypeptide-based drug delivery systems. However, the relatively low ROS sensitivity of side-chain thioethers limits the biomedical applications of these polypeptides because they usually require a high concentration of ROS beyond the pathological ROS level in the tumor microenvironment. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of a selenium-containing polypeptide, which undergoes random coil-to-extended helix and hydrophobic-to-hydrophilic transitions in the presence of 0.1% H2O2, a concentration that is much lower than the ROS requirement for thioether. ROS-responsive micelles were thus prepared from the amphiphilic copolymer consisting of the hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) segment and hydrophobic selenopolypeptide segment and were used to encapsulate doxorubicin (DOX). The micelles could be sensitively dissociated inside tumor cells in consequence of ROS-triggered oxidation of side-chain selenoether and structural change of the micelles, thereby efficiently and selectively releasing the encapsulated DOX to kill cancer cells. This work provides an alternative design of ROS-responsive polypeptides with higher sensitivity than that of the existing sulfur-containing polypeptides, which may expand the biomedical applications of polypeptide materials.

Abstract
Polymersomes are biomimetic cell membrane-like model structures that are self-assembled stepwise from amphiphilic copolymers. These polymeric (nano)carriers have gained the scientific community’s attention due to their biocompatibility, versatility, and higher stability than liposomes. Their tunable properties, such as composition, size, shape, and surface functional groups, extend encapsulation possibilities to either hydrophilic or hydrophobic cargoes (or both) and their site-specific delivery. Besides, polymersomes can disassemble in response to different stimuli, including light, for controlling the “on-demand” release of cargo that may also respond to light as photosensitizers and plasmonic nanostructures. Thus, polymersomes can be spatiotemporally stimulated by light of a wide wavelength range, whose exogenous response may activate light-stimulable moieties, enhance the drug efficacy, decrease side effects, and, thus, be broadly employed in photoinduced therapy. This review describes current light-responsive polymersomes evaluated for anticancer therapy. It includes light-activable moieties’ features and polymersomes’ composition and release behavior, focusing on recent advances and applications in cancer therapy, current trends, and photosensitive polymersomes’ perspectives.

Abstract
Over the past few years, amino acids (AA) have emerged as promising biomaterials for the synthesis of functional polymers. Owing to the diversity of functional groups in amino acids, various polymerization methods may be used to make a wide range of well-defined functional amino-acid/peptide-based optically active polymers with varying polymer lengths, compositions, and designs. When incorporated with chirality and self-assembly, they offer a wide range of applications and are particularly appealing in the field of drug delivery, tissue engineering, and biosensing. There are several classes of these polymers that include polyamides (PA), polyesters (PE), poly(ester-amide)s (PEA)s, polyurethanes (PU)s, poly(depsipeptide)s (PDP)s, etc. They offer the ability to control functionality, conjugation, crosslinking, stimuli responsiveness, and tuneable mechanical/thermal properties. In this review, we present the recent advancements in the synthesis strategies for obtaining these amino acid-derived bio-macromolecules, their self-assembly properties, and the wealth of prevalent applications.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polypeptide nanoassemblies exhibit great potentials for cancer nanomedicines because of desirable biocompatibility and biodegradability, unique secondary conformations, varying functionalities, and especially the stimuli-enhanced therapeutic efficacy and reduced side effect. This review introduces the design and fabrication of stimuli-responsive polypeptide nanoassemblies that exhibit endogenous stimuli (e.g., pH, reduction, reactive oxygen species, adenosine triphosphate and enzyme, etc.) and exogenous light stimuli (e.g., UV and near-infrared light), which are biologically related or applied in the clinic. We also discuss the applications and prospects of those stimuli-responsive polypeptide nanoassemblies that might overcome the biological barriers of cancer nanomedicines for in vivo administration. Much more effort is needed to accelerate the second-generation stimuli-responsive polypeptide nanomedicines for clinical transition and applications. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
Recent years have seen increasing interests in the use of ring-opening polymerization of α-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) to prepare synthetic polypeptides, a class of biocompatible and versatile materials, for various biomedical applications. Because of their rich side-chain functionalities, diverse hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity profiles, and the capability of forming stable secondary structures, polypeptides can assemble into a variety of well-organized nano-structures that have unique advantages in drug delivery and controlled release. Herein, we review the design and use of polypeptide-based drug delivery system derived from NCA chemistry, and discuss the future perspectives of this exciting and important biomaterial area that may potentially change the landscape of next-generation therapeutics and diagnosis. Given the high significance of precise control over release for polypeptide-based systems, we specifically focus on the versatile designs of drug delivery systems capable of programmed release, through the changes in the chemical and physical properties controlled by the built-in molecular structures of polypeptides.

Abstract
Recently, stem cell-based therapies have been proposed as an alternative for the treatment of many diseases. Stem cells (SCs) are well known for their capacity to preserve themselves, proliferate, and differentiate into multiple lineages. These characteristics allow stem cells to be a viable option for the treatment of diverse diseases. Traditional methodologies based on 2-dimensional culture techniques (T-flasks and Petri dishes) are simple and well standardized; however, they present disadvantages that limit the production of the cell yield required for regenerative medicine applications. Lately, microcarrier (MC)-based culture techniques have emerged as an attractive platform for expanding stem cells in suspension systems. Although the use of stem cell expansion on MCs has recently shown significant increase, their implementation for medical purposes is been hampered by bottlenecks in upstream and downstream processing. Therefore, there is an urgent need in the development of bioprocesses that simplify stem cell cultures under xeno-free conditions and detachment from MCs without diminishing their pluripotency and viability. A critical analysis of the factors that impact the up and downstream bioprocessing on MC-based stem cell cultures is presented in this review. This analysis aims to raise the awareness of the current drawbacks that limit MC-based stem cell bioprocessing in regenerative medicine and propose alternatives to overcome them.

Abstract
Photoresponsive polymers have attracted increasing interest for a variety of applications. Here, we report a family of photoresponsive polypeptoid-based copolymer poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(N-(S-(o-nitrobenzyl)-thioethyl) glycine)-co-poly(N-(2-phenylethyl) glycine) (PEG-b-PNSN-co-PNPE) synthesized by the controlled ring-opening polymerization (ROP) technique. The key feature of the design is to incorporate both o-nitrobenzyl group moiety to offer the photoresponsive property and phenethyl residues to tune the structural and amphiphilic property of the system. We demonstrate that the cleavage degree of the o-nitrobenzyl group can reach to 100% upon UV-irradiation. With delicate design, a photoresponsive vesicle-to-sphere transition has been observed that facilitates the release of the encapsulants. This work provides a facile approach to prepare a type of photoresponsive polymers with tunable properties for drug delivery.

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. Polymeric micelles have great potential in drug delivery systems because of their multifunctional adjustability, excellent stability, and biocompatibility.![]()

Abstract
Over the past two decades, nano-sized biosystems have increasingly been utilized to deliver various pharmaceutical agents to a specific region, organ or tissue for controllable precision therapy. Whether solid nanohydrogel, nanosphere, nanoparticle, nanosheet, micelles and lipoproteins, or "hollow" nanobubble, liposome, nanocapsule, and nanovesicle, all of them can exhibit outstanding loading and releasing capability as a drug vehicle - in particular polymeric nanovesicle, a microscopic hollow sphere that encloses a water core with a thin polymer membrane. Besides excellent stability, toughness and liposome-like compatibility, polymeric nanovesicles offer considerable scope for tailoring properties by changing their chemical structure, block lengths, stimulus-responsiveness and even conjugation with biomolecules. In this review, we summarize the latest advances in stimulus-responsive polymeric nanovesicles for biomedical applications. Different functionalized polymers are in development to construct more complex multiple responsive nanovesicles in delivery systems, medical imaging, biosensors and so on.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polymers that can undergo conformational changes with external triggers have enabled themselves as smart materials for various utilizations, among which biodegradability is of particular importance to be engineered for biomedical application. In this study, a thermo and pH dual responsive polypeptide (N, N-dimethylaminoethyl acrylate-modified poly(l-cysteine)) (PLC-g-DMAEA) was prepared by the combination of N-carboxyanhydride ring-open polymerization and thiol-ene click chemistry. The biodegradable poly(l-cysteine) (PLC) with pendant thiol groups provided an easily clickable backbone for postmodification, which was demonstrated by reacting with a well-known monomer of N, N-dimethylaminoethyl acrylate (DMAEA) to achieve both temperature and pH responsiveness. The irreversible thermo-response of PLC-g-DMAEA could be attributed to the ordered β-sheets formed upon heating, leading to the trapped side groups with poor water accessibility. Moreover, this copolymer precipitated at pH ranging from 7.5 to 9.7, but protonation of tertiary amine groups (pH < 7.5) and salt forming of masked thiol groups (pH > 9.7) rendered it soluble in water. Our results revealed that a ready available vinyl monomer could be easily clicked onto the biodegradable PLC and its stimuli responsiveness would be reserved. Moreover, the primary and secondary structures of PLC might influence the conformation, thus leading to the unique responsive behavior of the resulted copolymer.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polymeric materials have attracted significant attention in a variety of high-value-added and industrial applications during the past decade. Among various stimuli, light is of particular interest as a stimulus because of its unique advantages, such as precisely spatiotemporal control, mild conditions, ease of use, and tunability. In recent years, a lot of effort towards the synthesis of a biocompatible and biodegradable polypeptide has resulted in many examples of photo-responsive nanoparticles. Depending on the specific photochemistry, those polypeptide derived nano-assemblies are capable of crosslinking, disassembling, or morphing into other shapes upon light irradiation. In this mini-review, we aim to assess the current state of photo-responsive polypeptide based nanomaterials. Firstly, those 'smart' nanomaterials will be categorized by their photo-triggered events (i.e., crosslinking, degradation, and isomerization), which are inherently governed by photo-sensitive functionalities, including O-nitrobenzyl, coumarin, azobenzene, cinnamyl, and spiropyran. In addition, the properties and applications of those polypeptide nanomaterials will be highlighted as well. Finally, the current challenges and future directions of this subject will be evaluated.

Synthesis and Application of Aurophilic Poly(Cysteine) and Poly(Cysteine)-Containing Copolymers. Polymers (Basel) 2017; 9:polym9100500. [PMID: 30965803 PMCID: PMC6418574 DOI: 10.3390/polym9100500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2017] [Revised: 10/05/2017] [Accepted: 10/07/2017] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The redox capacity, as well as the aurophilicity of the terminal thiol side groups, in poly(Cysteine) lend a unique characteristic to this poly(amino acid) or polypeptide. There are two major application fields for this polymer: (i) biomedical applications in drug delivery and surface modification of biomedical devices and (ii) as coating for electrodes to enhance their electrochemical sensitivity. The intended application determines the synthetic route for p(Cysteine). Polymers to be used in biomedical applications are typically polymerized from the cysteine N-carboxyanhydride by a ring-opening polymerization, where the thiol group needs to be protected during the polymerization. Advances in this methodology have led to conditions under which the polymerization progresses as living polymerization, which allows for a strict control of the molecular architecture, molecular weight and polydispersity and the formation of block copolymers, which eventually could display polyphilic properties. Poly(Cysteine) used as electrode coating is typically polymerized onto the electrode by cyclic voltammetry, which actually produces a continuous, pinhole-free film on the electrode via the formation of covalent bonds between the amino group of Cysteine and the carbon of the electrode. This resulting coating is chemically very different from the well-defined poly(Cysteine) obtained by ring-opening polymerizations. Based on the structure of cysteine a significant degree of cross-linking within the coating deposited by cyclic voltammetry can be assumed. This manuscript provides a detailed discussion of the ring-opening polymerization of cysteine, a brief consideration of the role of glutathione, a key cysteine-containing tripeptide, and examples for the utilization of poly(Cysteine) and poly(Cysteine)-containing copolymers, in both, the biomedical as well as electrochemical realm.

Abstract
In this paper, sensitive polymeric hollow spheres self-assembled from chitosan-grafted-β-cyclodextrin (CS-g-CD) and sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) were prepared for controlled release of doxorubicin (DOX). The assemblies were formed by electrostatic interactions between positively charged amino group in CS-g-CD and negatively charged phosphate in TPP. The hollow spheres with diameters about 100nm were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and laser particle analyzer. The microspheres with hollow cavity were beneficial to improve the drug loading capacity for DOX with entrapment efficiency above 60%. The cumulative release of DOX from CS-g-CD/TPP hollow microspheres increased with the decrease of pH and the increase of temperature or ionic strength. At 37 °C and pH 5.2, the maximum drug release was above 90% with a continuous release rate. In-vitro cytotoxicity tests indicate that drug loaded hollow spheres exhibited evidently inhibition against cancer cells. These sensitive polymeric hollow spheres are expected to be used in biomedical field as potential carrier.

Abstract
Versatile drug delivery devices using nanoporous membranes consisting of gold nanorods and dendrimers have been demonstrated to provide light-triggered on-demand pulsatile release from a reservoir containing highly enriched therapeutics for a real patient's needs. The drug release rate is directly correlated with the temperature increase and irradiated energy of a near-IR laser in both static and fluidic devices. This biocompatible platform for on-demand control was further confirmed by in vitro experiments. Interestingly, different responses to stimuli were obtained from each drug in the absence and presence of NIR light, indicating the versatile potential of our on-demand drug delivery system in less-invasive therapies requiring multi-drug delivery strategies. The enhanced delivery system will improve therapeutic efficacy and reduce side effects through regulation of plasma drug profiles.
