Abstract
Diabetes is one of the common endocrine disorders generally characterized by elevated levels of blood sugar. It can originate either from the inability of the pancreas to synthesize insulin, which is considered as an autoimmune disorder, or the reduced production of insulin, considered as insulin resistivity. A wound can be defined as a condition of damage to living tissues including skin, mucous membrane and other organs as well. Wounds get complicated with respect to time based on specific processes like diabetes mellitus, obesity and immunocompromised conditions. Proper growth and functionality of the epidermis gets sustained due to impaired diabetic wound healing which shows a sign of dysregulated wound healing process. In comparison with synthetic medications, phytochemicals like flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids and glycosides have gained enormous importance relying on their distinct potential to heal diabetic wounds. Flavonoids are one of the most promising and important groups of natural compounds which can be used to treat acute as well as chronic wounds. Flavonoids show excellent properties due to the presence of hydroxyl groups in their chemical structure, which makes this class of compounds different from others. Based on the novel principles of nanotechnology via utilizing suitable drug delivery systems, the delivery of bioactive constituents from plant source amplifies the wound-healing mechanism, minimizes complexities and enhances bioavailability. Hence, the encapsulation and applicability of flavonoids with an emphasis on mechanistic route and wound-healing therapeutics have been highlighted in the subsequent study with focus on multiple drug delivery systems.

Abstract
In the nanomedicine field, there is a need to widen the availability of nanovectors to compensate for the increasingly reported side effects of poly(ethene glycol). Nanovectors enabling cross-linking can further optimize drug delivery. Cross-linkable polyoxazolines are therefore relevant candidates to address these two points. Here we present the synthesis of coumarin-functionalized poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) block copolymers, namely, poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly(2-phenyl-2-oxazoline) and poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly(2-butyl-2-oxazoline). The hydrophilic ratio and molecular weights were varied in order to obtain a range of possible behaviors. Their self-assembly after nanoprecipitation or film rehydration was examined. The resulting nano-objects were fully characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), cryo-TEM, multiple-angle dynamic and static light scattering. In most cases, the formation of polymer micelles was observed, as well as, in some cases, aggregates, which made characterization more difficult. Cross-linking was performed under UV illumination in the presence of a coumarin-bearing cross-linker based on polymethacrylate derivatives. Addition of the photo-cross-linker and cross-linking resulted in better-defined objects with improved stability in most cases.

Abstract
Recently, biomimetic nanoparticles for tumor−targeted therapy have attracted intensifying interest. Although exosomes are an excellent biomimetic material, numerous challenges are still hindering its clinical applications, such as low yield, insufficient targeting efficiency, and high cost. In this work, urinary exosomes (UEs) with high expression of CD9 and CD47 were extracted from breast cancer patients by a non−invasive method. Here, a nanotechnology approach is reported for tumor homologous targeting via CD9 and phagocytosis escape via CD47 through UE−coated poly (2−ethyl−2−oxazoline)−poly (D, L−lactide) (PEOz−PLA) nanoparticles (UEPP NPs). The cytotoxic agent doxorubicin (DOX)−loaded UEPP (UEPP−D) NPs with an initial particle size of 61.5 nm showed a burst release under acidic condition mimicking the tumor microenvironment. In vitro experiments revealed that UEPP−D NPs exhibited significantly improved cellular uptake, cytotoxicity, and apoptosis in MCF−7 cell lines as compared to DOX−loaded PEOz−PLA nanoparticles (PP−D NPs) and free DOX. More importantly, anti−phagocytosis and pharmacokinetic studies confirmed that UEPP−D NPs had superior immune escape ability and significantly prolonged the drug’s bloodstream circulation in vivo. Finally, UEPP−D NPs showed a markedly higher antitumor efficacy and lower side−toxicity in MCF−7 tumor bearing nude mice model. Thus, this versatile nano−system with immune escape, homologous targeting, and rapid response release characteristics could be a promising tool for breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Because the combination of π-conjugated polymers with biocompatible synthetic counterparts leads to the development of bio-relevant functional materials, this paper reports a new oligo(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (OMeOx)-containing thiophene macromonomer, denoted Th-OMeOx. It can be used as a reactive precursor for synthesis of a polymerizable 2,2'-3-OMeOx-substituted bithiophene by Suzuki coupling. Also a grafted polythiophene amphiphile with OMeOx side chains was synthesized by its self-acid-assisted polymerization (SAAP) in bulk. The results showed that Th-OMeOx is not only a reactive intermediate but also a versatile functional material in itself. This is due to the presence of 2-bromo-substituted thiophene and ω-hydroxyl functional end-groups, and due to the multiple functionalities encoded in its structure (photosensitivity, water self-dispersibility, self-assembling capacity). Thus, analysis of its behavior in solvents of different selectivities revealed that Th-OMeOx forms self-assembled structures (micelles or vesicles) by "direct dissolution".Unexpectedly, by exciting the Th-OMeOx micelles formed in water with λabs of the OMeOx repeating units, the intensity of fluorescence emission varied in a concentration-dependent manner.These self-assembled structures showed excitation-dependent luminescence as well. Attributed to the clusteroluminescence phenomenon due to the aggregation and through space interactions of electron-rich groups in non-conjugated, non-aromatic OMeOx, this behavior certifies that polypeptides mimic the character of Th-OMeOx as a non-conventional intrinsic luminescent material.

Abstract
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are one of the fatal diseases of the lungs that have severe impacts on public health and the global economy. The currently available antibiotics administered orally for the treatment of LRTIs need high doses with frequent administration and cause dose-related adverse effects. To overcome this problem, we investigated the development of ciprofloxacin (CIP) loaded poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOx) nanoparticles (NPs) for potential pulmonary delivery from dry powder inhaler (DPI) formulations against LRTIs. NPs were prepared using a straightforward co-assembly reaction carried out by the intermolecular hydrogen bonding among PEtOx, tannic acid (TA), and CIP. The prepared NPs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), powder X-ray diffraction analysis (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The CIP was determined by validated HPLC and UV spectrophotometry methods. The CIP loading into the PEtOx was between 21-67% and increased loading was observed with the increasing concentration of CIP. The NP sizes of PEtOx with or without drug loading were between 196-350 nm and increased with increasing drug loading. The in vitro CIP release showed the maximum cumulative release of about 78% in 168 h with a burst release of 50% in the first 12 h. The kinetics of CIP release from NPs followed non-Fickian or anomalous transport thus suggesting the drug release was regulated by both diffusion and polymer degradation. The in vitro aerosolization study carried out using a Twin Stage Impinger (TSI) at 60 L/min air flow showed the fine particle fraction (FPF) between 34.4% and 40.8%. The FPF was increased with increased drug loading. The outcome of this study revealed the potential of the polymer PEtOx as a carrier for developing CIP-loaded PEtOx NPs as DPI formulation for pulmonary delivery against LRTIs.

Abstract
The behavior of star-shaped six-arm poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazines and poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazolines in aqueous solutions on heating was studied by light scattering, turbidimetry and microcalorimetry. The core of stars was hexaaza [26] orthoparacyclophane and the arms were poly-2-ethyl-2-oxazine, poly-2-isopropyl-2-oxazine, poly-2-ethyl-2-oxazoline, and poly-2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline. The arm structure affects the properties of polymers already at low temperatures. Molecules and aggregates were present in solutions of poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazines, while aggregates of two types were observed in the case of poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazolines. On heating below the phase separation temperature, the characteristics of the investigated solutions did not depend practically on temperature. An increase in the dehydration degree of poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazines and poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazolines led to the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds, and aggregation was the dominant process near the phase separation temperature. It was shown that the characteristics of the phase transition in solutions of the studied polymer stars are determined primarily by the arm structure, while the influence of the molar mass is not so significant. In comparison with literature data, the role of the hydrophobic core structure in the formation of the properties of star-shaped polymers was analyzed.

Abstract
The behavior of amphiphilic molecular brushes in aqueous solutions on heating was studied by light scattering and turbidimetry. The main chain of the graft copolymers was polydimethylsiloxane, and the side chains were thermosensitive poly-2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline. The studied samples differed in the length of the grafted chains (polymerization degrees were 14 and 30) and, accordingly, in the molar fraction of the hydrophobic backbone. The grafting density of both samples was 0.6. At low temperatures, macromolecules and aggregates, which formed due to the interaction of main chains, were observed in solutions. At moderate temperatures, heating solutions of the sample with short side chains led to aggregation due to dehydration of poly-2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline and the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. In the case of the brush with long grafted chains, dehydration caused the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds and the compaction of molecules and aggregates. The lower critical solution temperature for solutions of the sample with long side chains was higher than LCST for the sample with short side chains. It was shown that the molar fraction of the hydrophobic component and the intramolecular density are the important factors determining the LCST behavior of amphiphilic molecular brushes in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Mixed liposomes of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and gradient (pseudodiblock) poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-grad-poly(2-phenyl-2-oxazoline) (MPOx) copolymers are investigated by small angle neutron scattering (SANS). All experimental data, from different phospholipid-copolymer compositions, concentrations and temperatures are fitted with one model. This model allows the determination of the separate contributions from vesicular populations of different lamellarity and size. MPOx copolymers are proved to modify both the size and lamellarity of DPPC liposomes. The gradient copolymer with higher hydrophilic content induces shrinkage of the uni- and bi-lamellar DPPC vesicles. The copolymer with lower hydrophilic content causes dramatic changes on the lamellarity of DPPC vesicles by the formation of hexa-lamellar vesicles. The tendency of multi-lamellar vesicles to transform into uni-lamellar ones as temperature increases is more pronounced in the presence of the copolymers. These findings may have direct implications on the drug loading and release properties of liposomes and their interactions with cells.

Abstract
Amphiphilic polymers represent one of the main class of stabilizers for non-lamellar lyotropic liquid crystalline nanoparticles, being essential for their formation and stability. In the present study, poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PEO-b-PCL) block copolymers and poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-grad-poly(2-phenyl-2-oxazoline) (MPOx) gradient copolymers were incorporated as stabilizers in liquid crystalline nanoparticles prepared from glyceryl monooleate. The polymers were chosen according to their high biocompatibility and promising stealth properties, in order to develop safe and efficient drug delivery nanosystems. The physicochemical characteristics and fractal dimension of the resultant nanosystems were obtained from light scattering techniques, while their micropolarity and microfluidity from fluorescence spectroscopy. The effect of temperature, serum proteins and ionic strength on the physicochemical behavior was monitored. Their morphology was assessed by cryo-TEM, while their thermal behavior by microcalorimetry and high-resolution ultrasound spectroscopy. Their properties were dependent on the stabilizer chemistry and topology (block/gradient copolymer) and its concentration. Subsequently, resveratrol, as model hydrophobic drug, was loaded into the nanosystems, the entrapment efficiency was calculated and in vitro release studies were carried out, highlighting how the different stabilizer can differentiate the drug release profile. In conclusion, the proposed copolymers broaden the toolbox of polymeric stabilizers for the development of liquid crystalline nanoparticles intended for drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare tumor and prognosis is overall poor but heterogeneous. Mitotane (MT) has been used for treatment of ACC for decades, either alone or in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy. Even at doses up to 6 g per day, more than half of the patients do not achieve targeted plasma concentration (14-20 mg L-1 ) even after many months of treatment due to low water solubility, bioavailability, and unfavorable pharmacokinetic profile. Here a novel MT nanoformulation with very high MT concentrations in physiological aqueous media is reported. The MT-loaded nanoformulations are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and powder X-ray diffraction which confirms the amorphous nature of the drug. The polymer itself does not show any cytotoxicity in adrenal and liver cell lines. By using the ACC model cell line NCI-H295 both in monolayers and tumor cell spheroids, micellar MT is demonstrated to exhibit comparable efficacy to its ethanol solution. It is postulated that this formulation will be suitable for i.v. application and rapid attainment of therapeutic plasma concentrations. In conclusion, the micellar formulation is considered a promising tool to alleviate major drawbacks of current MT treatment while retaining bioactivity toward ACC in vitro.

Abstract
Despite decades of research, our understanding of the molecular interactions between drugs and polymers in drug-loaded polymer micelles does not extend much beyond concepts such as "like-dissolves-like" or hydrophilic/hydrophobic. However, polymer-drug compatibility strongly affects formulation properties and therefore the translation of a formulation into the clinics. Specific interactions such as hydrogen-bonding, π-π stacking, or coordination interactions can be utilized to increase drug loading. This is commonly based on trial and error and eventually leads to an optimized drug carrier. Unfortunately, due to the unique characteristics of each drug, the deduction of advanced general concepts remains challenging. Furthermore, the introduction of complex moieties or specifically modified polymers hampers systematic investigations regarding polymer-drug compatibility as well as clinical translation. In this study, we reduced the complexity to isolate the crucial factors determining drug loading. Therefore, the compatibility of 18 different amphiphilic polymers for five different hydrophobic drugs was determined empirically. Subsequently, the obtained specificities were compared to theoretical compatibilities derived from either the Flory-Huggins interaction parameters or the Hansen solubility parameters. In general, the Flory-Huggins interaction parameters were less suited to correctly estimate the experimental drug solubilization compared to the Hansen solubility parameters. The latter were able to correctly predict some trend regarding good and poor solubilizers, yet the overall predictive strength of Hansen solubility parameters is clearly unsatisfactory.

Abstract
In this work, a mixed polymer brushes based on poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOXA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) coated capillary with switchable protein adsorption/desorption properties was developed and applied for on-line extraction and preconcentration of lysozyme. The study of electroosmotic flow (EOF) and fluorescence microscope showed that the inner surface charge of PMOXA/PAA mixed brush coated capillary displayed the switchable behavior toward the change of pH value and ionic strength (I), and PMOXA/PAA mixed brushes coated capillary could adsorb high amounts of lysozyme at pH 7 (I = 10-5 M), and the most of adsorbed lysozyme could then be desorbed at pH 3 (I = 10-1 M). Subsequently, this coated capillary with switchable lysozyme adsorption/desorption ability was applied for on-line extraction and preconcentration of lysozyme during capillary electrophoresis (CE) performance. Under the process of on-line preconcentration, the detection signal (peak area) of lysozyme obtained in PMOXA/PAA coated capillary was 26 times that obtained in bare capillary under normal CE while the contour chain length of PAA was 1.56 times that of PMOXA. Moreover, the value of low detection limit (LOD) of lysozyme using above coated capillary under on-line preconcentration method reached to 4.5 × 10-9 mg/mL, and 1 × 105-fold sensitivity enhancement was realized for lysozyme as compared with the bare capillary under normal CE.

Abstract
In this paper, we have developed a novel method for the preparation of covalently connected capillary coatings in which diazotized poly (vinyl alcohol-b-styrene) (diazo-P(VA-b-St)) was used as a photosensitive coating agent. Firstly, the diazo-P(VA-b-St) coating was self-assembled on the inner surface of the capillary, and then irradiated by ultraviolet (UV) light to convert the ionic bonding into covalent bonding through the unique photochemical reaction of diazo groups. The covalently connected coatings inhibited the protein adsorption on the inner surface of the capillary, as a result, the baseline protein separation of ribonuclease A (RNase A), lysozyme (Lyz) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were attained by utilizing the capillary electrophoresis (CE). The covalently connected diazo-P(VA-b-St) capillary coatings have greater CE separation performance with magnificent repeatability and enhanced stability, when compared with non-covalently coated or bare capillaries. This strategy to synthesize photosensitive diazo-P(VA-b-St) capillary coatings for their use in capillary electrophoresis separation of proteins is highly environment-friendly as it does not involve the use of extremely noxious and moisture penetrating coatings of silane.

In this paper, we describe the synthesis of amphiphilic poly(2-oxazoline) derivatives with l-prolinamide units in the side chain and their application in asymmetric aldol reactions. Upon dissolution in water, the pseudopeptide polymers self-assembled into particles with different sizes, relying on the copolymer composition and distribution of hydrophilic/hydrophobic segments in the polymer chain. A preliminary study has demonstrated that the catalytic activity of these polymeric organocatalysts are strongly dependent on the aggregated architecture. The micelle-type assemblies can act as nanoreactors to efficiently promote the direct aldolisation of cyclohexanone with aromatic aldehydes in aqueous media, affording anti-aldol products in excellent yields (88⁻99%) and higher stereoselectivities (90/10 dr, 86% ee) compared to their nonmicellar systems under identical conditions.

Abstract
We investigate the formation of hybrid polyelectrolyte/protein nanoparticles by associations between aggregates of partially hydrolyzed poly(2-phenyl-2-oxazoline) (HPPhOx) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) in aqueous solutions. Light scattering experiments show that at conditions of low salt, BSA creates interaggregate bridges and increases the size of the HPPhOx nanoparticles. At high salt contents, breaking of aggregates leads to well-defined nanoparticles. The interior of the formed nanoparticles is probed by small-angle neutron scattering. At low salt, diffuse arrangements are observed, whereas at high salt concentration, scattering is dominated by well-defined hydrophobic domains enhanced by the incorporation of BSA. This system shows that the combination of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions in random-amphiphilic-polyelectrolyte/protein complexes can be used to determine the properties of self-assembled hybrid multifunctional nanoparticles.

Abstract
A new class of coil-rod-coil molecules with an azobenzene core was synthesized. They were found to form robust organogels in several organic solvents. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), FTIR spectroscopy, UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy, 1 H NMR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed that in these organogels, the molecules self-assembled into a nanofiber network with an H-type aggregation mode under the joint effect of π-π stacking, intermolecular hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals forces. Interestingly, the incorporation of the azobenzene mesogene into the rigid core led to photoisomerizable liquid crystal materials, which exhibited quick responsiveness to light and temperature, along with the trans-cis transition stimulated by UV light and heating.
