Abstract
ABC terpolymers are a class of very important polymers because of their expansive molecular topologies and extensive architectures. As block A, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is one of the most principal categories owing to good biocompatibility and wide commercial availability. More importantly, the synthetic approaches of ABC terpolymers using PEG as a macroinitiator are facile and varied. PEG-based ABC terpolymers from design and synthesis to applications are highlighted in this review. Linear, 3-miktoarm, and cyclic polymers as the architecture are separated. The synthetic approaches of PEG-based ABC terpolymers mainly include the sequential polymerization or coupling of polymers. PEG-based ABC terpolymers have wide applications in the fields of drug carriers, gene vectors, templates for the fabrication of inorganic hollow nanospheres, and stabilizers of metal nanoparticles.

Abstract
The extraordinary growth and progression of tumor require enormous nutrient and energy. Unregulated behaviors of cancer cell progressing and persistently change of tumor microenvironment (TME) which acts as the soil for cancer growth and metastasis are the ubiquitous features. The tumor microenvironment exhibits some unique features which differ with the normal tissues. While the nanoparticles get through the blood vessel leakage, they encounter immediately and interact directly with these microenvironment factors. These factors may inhibit the diffusion of nanoparticles from penetrating through the tumor, or induce the dissociation of nanoparticles. Different nanoparticles encountered with different intratumoral microenvironment factors end up in different way. Therefore, in this review, we first briefly introduced the formations, distributions, features of some intratumoral microenvironment, and their effects on the tumor progression. They include extracellular matrix (ECM), matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), acidic/hypoxia environment, redox environment, and tumor associated macrophages (TAMs). We then exemplified how these factors interact with nanoparticles and emphasized the potentials and challenges of nanoparticle-based strategies facing in enhancing intratumoral penetration and tumor microenvironment remodeling. We hope to give a simple understanding of the interaction between these microenvironment factors and the nanoparticles, thus, favors the designing and constructing of more ideal functional nanoparticles.

Abstract
A powerful tool for controlling interfacial properties and molecular architecture relies on the tailored adsorption of stimuli-responsive block copolymers onto surfaces. Here, we use computational and experimental approaches to investigate the adsorption behavior of thermally responsive polypeptide block copolymers (elastin-like polypeptides, ELPs) onto silica surfaces, and to explore the effects of surface affinity and micellization on the adsorption kinetics and the resultant polypeptide layers. We demonstrate that genetic incorporation of a silica-binding peptide (silaffin R5) results in enhanced adsorption of these block copolymers onto silica surfaces as measured by quartz crystal microbalance and ellipsometry. We find that the silaffin peptide can also direct micelle adsorption, leading to close-packed micellar arrangements that are distinct from the sparse, patchy arrangements observed for ELP micelles lacking a silaffin tag, as evidenced by atomic force microscopy measurements. These experimental findings are consistent with results of dissipative particle dynamics simulations. Wettability measurements suggest that surface immobilization hampers the temperature-dependent conformational change of ELP micelles, while adsorbed ELP unimers (i.e., unmicellized block copolymers) retain their thermally responsive property at interfaces. These observations provide guidance on the use of ELP block copolymers as building blocks for fabricating smart surfaces and interfaces with programmable architecture and functionality.

Abstract
The development of an efficient colorectal cancer therapy is currently a public health priority. In the present work, we proposed a multifunctional theranostic micellar drug delivery system utilizing cationic PDMA-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PDMA-b-PCL) micelles as nanocarriers of SN-38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin), ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO), and small interfering RNA (siRNA) that targets human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The VEGF siRNA was conjugated to polyethylene glycol (PEG) (siRNA-PEG) before complexation with the micelles in order to improve the siRNA's stability and to prolong its retention time in the blood circulation. To further improve the in vivo biosafety, we prepared mixed micelles using mPEG-PCL together with PDMA-b-PCL copolymer. The SN-38/USPIO-loaded siRNA-PEG mixed micelleplexes passively targeted to tumor regions and synergistically facilitated VEGF silencing and chemotherapy, thus efficiently suppressing tumor growth via a multi-dose therapy regimen. Additionally, the SN-38/USPIO-loaded siRNA-PEG mixed micelleplexes acted as a negative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent in T2-weighted imaging, resulting in a powerful tool for the diagnosis and for tracking of the therapeutic outcomes. In summary, we established a theranostic micellar drug and gene delivery system that not only synergistically combined gene silencing and chemotherapy but also served as a negative MRI contrast agent, which reveal its potential as a novel colorectal cancer therapy.

Abstract
Vinyl-terminated hyperbranched poly(amido amine)s is obtained by Michael addition polymerization of 4-(aminomethyl)piperidine (AMPD) with a double molar N,N-cystaminebis(acrylamide) (BAC). Then an amphiphilic hyperbranched poly(BAC2-AMPD1)-PEG is produced via converting the vinyl groups to amines followed by PEGylation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) results indicate that the micelles can be obtained via self-assembly of hyperbranched poly(BAC2-AMPD1)-PEG. Further an anti-cancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), can be loaded into the micelles. pH- and redox-response of the micelles of hyperbranched poly(BAC2-AMPD1)-PEG without and with DOX are investigated. The results of confocal microscopy and flow cytometry reflect that FITC tagged or DOX loaded micelles of hyperbranched poly(BAC2-AMPD1)-PEG can enter HepG2 and MCF-7 cells, and DOX can be observed in the nucleus of the cells. The cytotoxicity of the micelles without and with DOX is evaluated in HepG2 and MCF-7 cells, and the efficacy to kill the cancer cells is discussed in comparison with free DOX.

Abstract
The surface charge of a nanostructure plays a critical role in modulating blood circulation time, nanostructure-cell interaction, and intracellular events. It is unfavorable to have positive charges on the nanostructure surface before arriving at the disease site because positively charged nanostructures interact strongly with blood components, resulting in rapid clearance from the blood, and suboptimal targeted accumulation at the tumor site. Once at the tumor site, however, the positive charge on the nanostructure surface accelerates uptake by tumor cells and promotes the release of payloads from the lysosomes to the cytosol or nucleus inside cells. Thus, the ideal nanocarrier systems for drug delivery would maintain a neutral or negatively charged surface during blood circulation but would then generate a positive surface charge after accumulation at the tumor site or inside the cancer cells. This Progress Report focuses on the design and application of various neutral or negatively charged nanostructures that can generate a positive charge in response to the tumor microenvironment or an external stimulus.

Abstract
An optimized condition is identified to prepare linear poly(amido amine)s via Michael Addition polymerization of trifunctional amine, 4-(aminomethyl)piperidine (AMPD), with an equimolar diacrylamide, N,N-cystaminebis(acrylamide) (BAC). Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and cholesterol (CE) are conjugated to linear poly(BAC-AMPD) through the reactions with the secondary amino groups in the backbone, respectively, to form poly(BAC-AMPD)-g-PEG-g-CE. The chemical structures of poly(BAC-AMPD) and poly(BAC-AMPD)-g-PEG-g-CE are characterized using NMR and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and (1)H NMR results show that micelles with PEG shells and hydrophobic cores composed of poly(BAC-AMPD) and CE are formed via self-assembly of poly(BAC-AMPD)-g-PEG-g-CE in aqueous solution, and the micelles of poly(BAC-AMPD)-g-PEG-g-CE can be degraded by the presence of L-dithiothreitol and show a limited cytotoxicity in vitro. The anti-cancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), can be loaded into the micelles. The DOX loaded micelles of poly(BAC-AMPD)-g-PEG-g-CE show pH- and redox-responsive drug release and redox-induced formation of aggregates, and it is shown that the DOX loaded micelles can deliver DOX into cells and show a higher efficacy in killing cancer cells than free drug.

Abstract
A visible light-induced surfactant-free emulsion polymerization (SFEP) was developed as an alternative pathway for the preparation of amine-functionalized nanoparticles by using the photo-initiating system consisting of camphorquinone coupled with tertiary amine (CQ/3°-amine). Water-soluble macromolecules containing 3°-amines were used as the sources of 3°-amine species, which not only function with CQ to generate initiating free radicals, but also provide colloidal stabilization to the resulting colloidal products. The prepared nanoparticles showed uniformed size distribution and good colloidal stability with positively charged surface. For SFEP induced by CQ/polyethyleneimine (PEI) photo-redox couple, the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) was affected by both light intensity and initiator concentration. In addition, to obtain higher solid content products, the weight ratio of PEI:MMA=1:4 was employed. Finally, an opportunity for immobilizing various amine containing polymers by our photo-induced SFEP was evaluated. The achievement of this SFEP also depended on 3°-amine content of the macromolecules used.
