Abstract
It is well known that the extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a vital role in the growth, survival
and differentiation of cells. Though two-dimensional (2D) materials are generally used as substrates for
the standard in vitro experiments, their mechanical, structural, and compositional characteristics can
alter cell functions drastically. Many scientists reported that cells behave more natively when cultured
in three-dimensional (3D) environments than on 2D substrates, due to the more in vivo-like 3D cell
culture environment that can better mimic the biochemical and mechanical properties of the ECM. In
this regard, water-swollen network polymer-based materials called hydrogels are highly attractive for
developing 3D ECM analogs due to their biocompatibility and hydrophilicity. Since hydrogels can be
tuned and altered systematically, these materials can function actively in a defined culture medium to
support long-term self-renewal of various cells. The physico-chemical and biological properties of the
materials used for developing hydrogel should be tunable in accordance with culture needs. Various
types of hydrogels derived either from natural or synthetic origins are currently being used for cell culture
applications. In this review, we present an overview of various hydrogels based on natural polymers
that can be used for cell culture, irrespective of types of applications. We also explain how each
hydrogel is made, its source, pros and cons in biological applications with a special focus on regenerative
engineering.

Abstract
We present a molecular theory to study the adsorption of different species within pH-sensitive hydrogel nanofilms. The theoretical framework allows for a molecular-level description of all the components of the system, and it explicitly accounts for the acid-base equilibrium. We concentrate on the adsorption of hexahistidine, one of the most widely used tags in bio-related systems, particularly in chromatography of proteins. The adsorption of hexahistidine within a grafted polyacid hydrogel film shows a nonmonotonic dependence on the solution pH. Depending on the salt concentration, the density of the polymer network, and the bulk concentration of peptide, substantial adsorption is predicted in the intermediate pH range where both the network and the amino acids are charged. To enhance the electrostatic attractions, the acid-base equilibrium of adsorbed hexahistidine is shifted significantly, increasing the degree of charge of the residues as compared to the bulk solution. Such a shift depends critically on the conditions of the environment at the nanoscale. At the same time, the degree of dissociation of the network becomes that of the isolated acid group in a dilute solution, which means that the network is considerably more charged than when there is no adsorbate molecules. This work provides fundamental information on the physical chemistry behind the adsorption behavior and the response of the hydrogel film. This information can be useful in designing new materials for the purification or separation/immobilization of histidine-tagged proteins.

Abstract
Biocatalysis, the use of enzymes in chemical transformation, has undergone intensive development for a wide range of applications. As such, maximizing the functionality of enzymes for biocatalysis is a major priority to enable industrial use. To date, many innovative technologies have been developed to address the future demand of enzymes for these purposes, but maximizing the catalytic activity of enzymes remains a challenge. In this study, we demonstrated that the functionality of a nanobiocatalyst could be enhanced by combining immobilization and radiofrequency (RF) treatment. Aminopeptidase PepA-encapsulating 2 nm platinum nanoparticles (PepA-PtNPs) with the catalytic activities of hydrolysis and hydrogenation were employed as multifunctional nanobiocatalysts. Immobilizing the nanobiocatalysts in a hydrogel using metal chelation significantly enhanced their functionalities, including catalytic power, thermal-stability, pH tolerance, organic solvent tolerance, and reusability. Most importantly, RF treatment of the hydrogel-immobilized PepA-PtNPs increased their catalytic power by 2.5 fold greater than the immobilized PepA. Our findings indicate that the catalytic activities and functionalities of PepA-PtNPs are greatly enhanced by the combination of hydrogel-immobilization and RF treatment. Based on our findings, we propose that RF treatment of nanobiohybrid catalysts immobilized on the bulk hydrogel represents a new strategy for achieving efficient biocatalysis.
