Abstract
The formation of polymeric micelles in aqueous environments through the self-assembly of amphiphilic polymers can provide a versatile platform to increase the solubility and permeability of hydrophobic drugs and pave the way for their administration. In comparison to various self-assembly-based vehicles, polymeric micelles commonly have a smaller size, spherical morphology, and simpler scale up process. The use of polymer-based micelles for the encapsulation and carrying of therapeutics to the site of action triggered a line of research on the synthesis of various amphiphilic polymers in the past few decades. The extended knowledge on polymers includes biocompatible smart amphiphilic copolymers for the formation of micelles, therapeutics loading and response to external stimuli, micelles with a tunable drug release pattern, etc. Different strategies such as ring-opening polymerization, atom transfer radical polymerization, reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer, nitroxide mediated polymerization, and a combination of these methods were employed to synthesize copolymers with diverse compositions and topologies with the proficiency of self-assembly into well-defined micellar structures. The current review provides a summary of the important polymerization techniques and recent achievements in the field of drug delivery using micellar systems. This review proposes new visions for the design and synthesis of innovative potent amphiphilic polymers in order to benefit from their application in drug delivery fields.

Abstract
Amphiphilic polymers can self-assemble to form nanoparticles with different structures under suitable conditions. Polymer nanoparticles functionalized with aromatic azo groups are endowed with photo-responsive properties. In recent years, a variety of photoresponsive polymers and nanoparticles have been developed based on azobenzene, using different molecular design strategies and synthetic routes. This article reviews the progress of this rapidly developing research field, focusing on the structure, synthesis, assembly and response of photo-responsive polymer assemblies. According to the molecular structure, photo-responsive polymers can be divided into linear polymers containing azobenzene in a side chain, linear polymers containing azobenzene in the main chain, linear polymers containing azobenzene in an end group, branched polymers containing azobenzene and supramolecular polymers containing azobenzene. These systems have broad biomedical application prospects in the field of drug delivery and imaging applications.

Abstract
Fusobacterium nucleatum caused drug-resistant around tumor sites often leads to the failure of chemotherapy during colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. Multifunctional cationic quaternary ammonium materials have been widely used as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents in antibacterial and anticancer fields. Herein, we design a smart supramolecular quaternary ammonium nanoparticle, namely quaternary ammonium PAMAM-AZO@CP[5]A (Q-P-A@CP[5]A), consisting of azobenzene (AZO)-conjugated dendritic cationic quaternary ammonium polyamidoamine (PAMAM) as the core and carboxylatopillar[5]arene (CP[5]A)-based switch, for antibacterial and anti-CRC therapies. The quaternary ammonium-PAMAM-AZO (Q-P-A) core endows the supramolecular system with enhanced antibacterial and anticancer properties. -N+CH3 groups on the surface of Q-P-A are accommodated in the CP[5]A cavity under normal conditions, which significantly improves the biocompatibility of Q-P-A@CP[5]A. Meanwhile, the CP[5]A host can be detached from -N+CH3 groups under pathological conditions, achieving efficient antibacterial and antitumor therapies. Furthermore, azoreductase in the tumor site can break the -NN- bonds of AZO in Q-P-A@CP[5]A, leading to the morphology recovery of supramolecular nanoparticles and CRC therapy through inducing cell membrane rupture. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that Q-P-A@CP[5]A possesses good biocompatibility, excellent antibacterial effect, and CRC treatment capability with negligible side effects. This supramolecular quaternary ammonium system provides an effective treatment method to overcome chemotherapy-resistant cancer caused by bacteria.

Abstract
A fundamental challenge in nanomaterial science is to facilely fabricate nonspherical polymersomes. Here, several kinds of novel tubular polymersomes were fabricated via self-assembly of amphiphilic azobenzene-containing block copolymers. Besides, their shape could be tuned by multiple approaches including changes in the chemical structure, self-assembly conditions and external stimuli.
