Abstract
To date, the reported injectable hydrogels have failed to mimic the fibrous architecture of the extracellular matrix (ECM), limiting their biological effects on cell growth and phenotype. Additionally, they lack the micro-sized pores present within the ECM, which is unfavorable for the facile transport of nutrients and waste. Herein, an injectable ECM-mimetic hydrogel (IEMH) was fabricated by shortening and dispersing Janus fibers capable of self-curling at body temperature into pH 7.4 phosphate buffer solution. The IEMH could be massively prepared through a side-by-side electrospinning process combined with ultraviolet irradiation. The IEMHs with only 5 wt% fibers could undergo sol-gel transition at body temperature to become solid gels with desirable stability, sturdiness, and elasticity and self-healing ability. In addition, they possessed notable pseudoplasticity, which is beneficial to injection at room temperature. The results obtained from characterization analysis via scanning electron microscopy, total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy indicate that their sol-gel transition under physiological conditions stems from the synergistic action of the tight entanglements between thermally-induced self-curling fibers and the hydrophobic interaction between the fibers. An MTT assay using C2C12 myoblast cells was performed to examine the in vitro cytotoxicity of IEMHs for biomedical applications, and the cell viability was found to be more than 95%.

Abstract
Polymeric microgels, fabricated via microfluidic techniques, have garnered significant interest as versatile drug delivery carriers. Despite the advances, the loading and release of hydrophobic drugs such as curcumin from polymeric microgels is not trivial. Herein, we report that effective drug loading can be achieved by the design of porous particles and the use of supramolecular cyclodextrin-based curcumin complexes. The fabrication of porous microgels through the judicious choice of chemical precursors under flow conditions was established. The evaluation of the curcumin loading dependence on the porosity of the microgels was performed. Microgels with higher porosity exhibited better curcumin loading compared to those with lower porosity. Curcumin-loaded microgels released the drug, which, upon internalization by U87 MG human glioma cancer cells, induced cytotoxicity. The findings reported here provide valuable insights for the development of tailored drug delivery systems using a microfluidics-based platform and outline a strategy for the effective delivery of hydrophobic therapeutic agents such as curcumin through supramolecular complexation.

Abstract
A thermoresponsive and recyclable nanomaterial was synthesized by surface modification of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (P(NIPAAm-co-DEAEMA)), having PNIPAAm as a thermoresponsive moiety and PDEAEMA for catalyst binding. Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles were incorporated into this material, and the resulting nanocatalyst was efficient in the hydrogenation of olefins and nitro compounds with turnover frequencies (TOFs) up to 750 h-1. Consistent catalytic activity in 10 consecutive runs was observed when performing the hydrogenation at 45 °C, i.e., above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the copolymer (37 °C), followed by cooling to 15 °C, i.e., below the LCST of the copolymer.

Abstract
One of the undeniable trends in modern bioengineering and nanotechnology is the use of various biomolecules, primarily of a polymeric nature, for the design and formulation of novel functional materials for controlled and targeted drug delivery, bioimaging and theranostics, tissue engineering, and other bioapplications. Biocompatibility, biodegradability, the possibility of replicating natural cellular microenvironments, and the minimal toxicity typical of biogenic polymers are features that have secured a growing interest in them as the building blocks for biomaterials of the fourth generation. Many recent studies showed the promise of the hard-templating approach for the fabrication of nano- and microparticles utilizing biopolymers. This review covers these studies, bringing together up-to-date knowledge on biopolymer-based multilayer capsules and beads, critically assessing the progress made in this field of research, and outlining the current challenges and perspectives of these architectures. According to the classification of the templates, the review sequentially considers biopolymer structures templated on non-porous particles, porous particles, and crystal drugs. Opportunities for the functionalization of biopolymer-based capsules to tailor them toward specific bioapplications is highlighted in a separate section.

Abstract
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) hydrogels have broad potential applications as drug delivery vehicles because of their thermoresponsive behavior. pNIPAM loading/release performances are directly affected by the gel network structure. Therefore, there is a need with the approaches for accurate design of 3D pNIPAM assemblies with the structure ordered at the nanoscale. This study demonstrates size-selective spontaneous loading of macromolecules (dextrans 10-500 kDa) into pNIPAM microgels by microgel heating from 22 to 35 °C (microgels collapse and trap dextrans) followed by the dextran release upon further cooling down to 22 °C (microgels swell back) . This temperature-mediated behavior is fully reversible. The structure of pNIPAM microgels was tailored via hard templating and cross-linking of the hydrogel using sacrificial mesoporous cores of vaterite CaCO3 microcrystals. In addition, the fabrication of hollow thermoresponsive pNIPAM microshells has been demonstrated, utilizing vaterite microcrystals that had narrower pores. The proposed approach for heating-triggered encapsulation and cooling-triggered release into/from pNIPAM microgels may pave the ways for applications of pNIPAM hydrogels for skin and transdermal cooling-responsive drug delivery in the future.

Abstract
Here we address research directions and trends developed following novel concepts in 2D/3D self-assembled polymer structures established in the department led by Helmuth Möhwald. These functional structures made of hybrids of polymer multilayers, lipids, and nanoparticles stimulated research in the design of the cellular microenvironment. The composition of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and dynamics of biofactor presentation in the ECM can be recapitulated by the hybrids. Proteins serve as models for protein-based biofactors such as growth factors, cytokines, hormones, and so forth. A fundamental understanding of complex intermolecular interactions and approaches developed for the externally IR-light-triggered release offers a powerful tool for controlling the biofactor presentation. Pure protein beads made via a mild templating on vaterite CaCO3 crystals can mimic cellular organelles in terms of the compartmentalization of active proteins. We believe that an integration of the approaches developed and described here offers a strong tool for engineering and mimicking both extra- and intracellular microenvironments.

Abstract
Formulation of multifunctional biopolymer-based scaffolds is one of the major focuses in modern tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Besides proper mechanical/chemical properties, an ideal scaffold should: (i) possess a well-tuned porous internal structure for cell seeding/growth and (ii) host bioactive molecules to be protected against biodegradation and presented to cells when required. Alginate hydrogels were extensively developed to serve as scaffolds, and recent advances in the hydrogel formulation demonstrate their applicability as "ideal" soft scaffolds. This review focuses on advanced porous alginate scaffolds (PAS) fabricated using hard templating on vaterite CaCO3 crystals. These novel tailor-made soft structures can be prepared at physiologically relevant conditions offering a high level of control over their internal structure and high performance for loading/release of bioactive macromolecules. The novel approach to assemble PAS is compared with traditional methods used for fabrication of porous alginate hydrogels. Finally, future perspectives and applications of PAS for advanced cell culture, tissue engineering, and drug testing are discussed.

Abstract
Porous vaterite crystals of CaCO3 are extensively used for the fabrication of self-assembled polymer-based microparticles (capsules, beads, etc.) utilized for drug delivery and controlled release. The nature of the polymer used plays a crucial role and discovery of new perspective biopolymers is essential to assemble microparticles with desired characteristics, such as biocompatibility, drug loading efficiency/capacity, release rate, and stability. Glycoprotein mucin is tested here as a good candidate to assemble the microparticles because of high charge due to sialic acids, mucoadhesive properties, and a tendency to self-assemble, forming gels. Mucin loading into the crystals via co-synthesis is twice as effective as via adsorption into preformed crystals. Desialylated mucin has weaker binding to the crystals most probably due to electrostatic interactions between sialic acids and calcium ions on the crystal surface. Improved loading of low-molecular-weight inhibitor aprotinin into the mucin-containing crystals is demonstrated. Multilayer capsules (mucin/protamine)3 have been made by the layer-by-layer self-assembly. Interestingly, the deposition of single mucin layers (mucin/water)3 has also been proven, however, the capsules were unstable, most probably due to additional (to hydrogen bonding) electrostatic interactions in the case of the two polymers used. Finally, approaches to load biologically-active compounds (BACs) into the mucin-containing microparticles are discussed.
