Abstract
In this work, new glycine-derived polymers are developed that exhibit thermoresponsive properties in water. Therefore, a series of monomers containing one, two, or three amide functional groups and one terminal cyanomethyl group is synthesized. The resulting homopolymers, obtained by free radical polymerization (FRP) and reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, display a sharp and reversible upper critical solution temperature (UCST)-type phase transition in water. Additionally, it is shown that the cloud point (TCP) can be adjusted over more than 60 °C by the number of glycyl groups present in the monomer structure and by the polymer's molar mass. These novel thermoresponsive polymers based on cyanomethylglycinamide enrich the range of nonionic UCST polymers and are promising to find applications in various fields.

Molecules 2024; 29:1039.

Abstract
This paper reports an innovative study that aims to address key issues in the efficient recycling of wastepaper cellulose. The research team utilized the temperature-responsive upper critical solution temperature (UCST) polymer P(NAGA-b-DMA) in combination with the LytA label's affinity for choline analogs. This innovative approach enabled them to successfully develop a novel soluble immobilized enzyme, P(NAGA-b-DMA)-cellulase. This new enzyme has proven highly effective, significantly enhancing the degradation of wastepaper cellulose while demonstrating exceptional stability. Compared with the traditional insoluble immobilized cellulase, the enzyme showed a significant improvement in the pH, temperature stability, recycling ability, and storage stability. A kinetic parameter calculation showed that the enzymatic effectiveness of the soluble immobilized enzyme was much better than that of the traditional insoluble immobilized cellulase. After the immobilization reaction, the Michaelis constant of the immobilized enzyme was only increased by 11.5%. In the actual wastepaper degradation experiment, the immobilized enzyme was effectively used, and it was found that the degradation efficiency of wastepaper cellulose reached 80% of that observed in laboratory conditions. This novel, thermosensitive soluble immobilized cellulase can efficiently catalyze the conversion of wastepaper cellulose into glucose under suitable conditions, so as to further ferment into environmentally friendly biofuel ethanol, which provides a solution to solve the shortage of raw materials and environmental protection problems in the paper products industry.

Abstract
This review summarizes recent progress in the synergistic design strategy for thermoresponsive polymers possessing an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in aqueous systems. To achieve precise control of the responsive behavior of the UCST polymers, their molecular design can benefit from a synergistic effect of hydrogen bonding with other interactions or modification of the chemical structures. The combination of UCST behavior with other stimuli-responsive properties of the polymers may yield new functional materials with potential applications such as sensors, actuators, and controlled release devices. The advances in this area provide insight or inspiration into the understanding and design of functional UCST polymers for a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Recently, bioinspired material such as nanoparticle has been successfully applied in the cancer therapy. However, how to precisely control the drug release from nanomedicine in tumor tissue and overcome the hypoxic microenvironment of tumor tissue is still an important challenge in the development of nanomedicine. In this work, a new type of drug-loaded nanoparticles P(AAm-co-AN)-AuNRs@CeO2-DOX (PA-DOX) was prepared by combining high-efficiency photothermal reagents, critical up-conversion temperature polymer layer and anti-cancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this system, CeO2 can decompose hydrogen peroxide to H2O and O2 alleviate the anaerobic microenvironment of liver cancer cells. As a photothermal reagent, AuNRs@CeO2 can convert near-infrared light into heat energy to achieve local heat to kill cancer cells and ablate solid tumors. In addition, the elevated temperature would enable the polymer layer to undergo a phase transition to release more DOX to achieve a controlled release mechanism, which will open up a new horizon for clinical cancer treatment.

Abstract
Anti-PD(L)1 immunotherapy recently arises as an effective treatment against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) but is only applicable to a small portion of TNBC patients due to the low PD-L1 expression and the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). To address these challenges, a multifunctional "drug-like" copolymer that possesses the auto-changeable upper critical solution temperature and the capacity of scavenging reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) inside tumor cells is synthesized and employed to develop a hypoxia-targeted and BMS202 (small molecule antagonist of PD-1/PD-L1 interactions)-loaded nanomedicine (BMS202@HZP NPs), combining the anti-PD-L1 therapy and the low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) against TNBC. In addition to the controlled release of BMS202 in the hypoxic TNBC, BMS202@HZP NPs benefit the LDRT by upregulating the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP, the primary cellular source for NADPH) of TME whereas scavenging the NADPH inside tumor cells. As a result, the BMS202@HZP NPs-mediated LDRT upregulate the PD-L1 expression of tumor to promote anti-PD-L1 therapy response while reprogramming the immunometabolism of TME to alleviate its immunosuppression. This innovative nanomedicine-mediated radio-immunometabolism regulation provides a promising strategy to reinforce the anti-PD-L1 therapy against TNBC.

Reducing thermal damage to adjacent normal tissue with dual thermo-responsive polymer via thermo-induced phase transition for precise photothermal theranosis. Acta Biomater 2022; 148:142-151. [PMID: 35690327 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.06.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 05/18/2022] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Photothermal therapy has been extensively studied to improve the light-to-heat efficiency for tumor ablation, but could cause severe damage to adjacent healthy tissue due to the thermal transfer, the random distribution of photothermal agents (PTAs), or combination hereof. Herein, we solve this dilemma with a material design strategy to develop a P(AAm-co-AN)-b-P(NIPAM-co-DMAa)-b-P(AAm-co-AN) ABA triblock copolymer by RAFT polymerization, which exhibits both UCST and LCST dual thermo-responsive behaviors in aqueous solution. The P(AAm-co-AN) block with appropriate AN content allows to finely tune its UCST to ∼ 43°C, which can effectively co-assemble with camptothecin (CPT) and Cy7-TCF, a near-infrared (NIR) PTA, realizing the photo-activated "on-demand" release of CPT and Cy7-TCF. The LCST of P(NIPAM-co-DMAa) segment is adjusted to ∼ 53°C by varying DMAa content, enabling an irreversible sol-to-gel transition. The heat transfer in hydrogel and heat dissipation at the interface of hydrogel-adjacent tissue are limited, resulting in selectively cell killing in tumor, with little hyperthermia in adjacent tissues. Moreover, the hydrogel continues to release CPT to enhance the synergistic efficacy of PTT with chemotherapy. These results suggest that dual thermo-responsive polymer can contribute PTT with high selectivity and negligible side effects for precise medicine. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Photothermal therapy exploits the susceptibility of tumor cells toward external light-induced hyperthermia, but can cause severe damage to adjacent healthy tissue due to thermal transfer, random distribution of photothermal agents (PTAs), or combination hereof. Here, we solve this dilemma by developing a P(AAm-co-AN)-b-P(NIPAM-co-DMAa)-b-P(AAm-co-AN) triblock copolymer with UCST and LCST dual thermo-responsive behaviors, realizing the sequential micelle-unimer-hydrogel phase transitions. The polymer can effectively encapsulate PTA/drug, achieve long systemic circulation, accumulate in tumor through EPR effect, regulate drug release by controlling tumor temperature above UCST via irradiation, and finally exhibit a sol-gel transition, eradicating the heat transfer to adjacent tissue. This represents a practicable strategy to guide the design of next-generation polymeric vector that can contribute PTT with negligible side effects.

Abstract
Polymer-protein hybrids have been extensively used in biomedical fields. Polymers with upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behaviors can form a hydrated coacervate phase below the cloud point (Tcp), providing themselves the opportunity to directly capture hydrophilic proteins and form hybrids in aqueous solutions. However, it is always a challenge to obtain a UCST polymer that could aggregate at a high temperature at a relatively low concentration and also efficiently bind with proteins. In this work, a UCST polymer reactive with proteins was designed, and its temperature responsiveness and protein-capture ability were investigated in detail. The polymer was synthesized by the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of acrylamide (AAm) and N-acryloxysuccinimide (NAS). Interestingly, taking advantage of the partial hydrolysis of NAS into acrylic acid (AAc), the obtained P(AAm-co-NAS-co-AAc) polymer exhibited an excellent UCST behavior and possessed good protein-capture ability. It showed a relatively higher Tcp (81 °C) at a lower concentration (0.1 wt %) and quickly formed polymer-protein hybrids with high protein loading and without losing protein bioactivity, and both the polymer and polymer-protein nanoparticles showed good cytocompatibility. All the findings are attributed to the unique structure of the polymer, which provided not only the strong and stable hydrogen bonds but also the quick and mild reactivity. The work offers an easy and mild strategy for polymer-protein hybridization directly in aqueous solutions, which may find applications in biomedical fields.

Abstract
In this present work, the synthesis of a new family of upper critical solution temperature (UCST)-thermoresponsive polymers based on N-cyanomethylacrylamide (CMAm) is reported. It is demonstrated that the thermally initiated reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of CMAm conducted in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) is well controlled. The homopolymer presents a sharp and reversible UCST-type phase transition in pure water with a very small hysteresis between cooling and heating cycles. It is demonstrated that the cloud point (TCP ) of poly(N-cyanomethylacrylamide) (PCMAm) is strongly molar mass dependent and shifts toward lower temperatures in saline water. Moreover, the transition temperature can be tuned over a large temperature range by copolymerization of CMAm with acrylamide or acrylic acid. The latter copolymers are both thermoresponsive and pH responsive. Interestingly, by this strategy sharp and reversible UCST-type transitions close to physiological temperature can be reached, which makes the copolymers extremely interesting candidates for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has become effective method for the treatment of malignant cancer. The development of PTT system with high anti-tumour effect is still the feasible research direction. Here, a new type of gold nanorods (AuNRs)-doxorubicin (DOX)/mPEG10K-peptide/P(AAm-co-AN) (APP-DOX) nano drug delivery system was proposed. Among them, AuNRs was used as high-efficiency photothermal agent. APP-DOX had a suitable size and can be targeted to accumulate in tumour tissues through circulation in the body. The abundant matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) in the tumour environment intercepted and cut off the short peptide chain structure grafted on APP-DOX. At the same time, the removal of the PEG segment leaded to an increase in the hydrophobic properties of the system. Nanoparticles aggregated into large particles, causing them to stay and aggregate further at the tumour site. When irradiated by 808 nm near-infrared laser, APP-DOX achieved a gradual heating process. High temperature can effectively ablate tumours and enable UCST polymer to achieve phase transition, resulting in more anti-cancer drugs loaded in the polymer layer DOX was released, effectively killing cancer cells. Animal experiments had verified the possibility of the nano drug-carrying system and good tumour treatment effect. What’s more worth mentioning is that compared with free DOX, the nano drug delivery system had lower biological toxicity and not cause obvious harmful effects on normal organs and tissues.

Abstract
In the last decades, numerous stimuli-responsive polymers have been developed and investigated regarding their switching properties. In particular, thermoresponsive polymers, which form a miscibility gap with the ambient solvent with a lower or upper critical demixing point depending on the temperature, have been intensively studied in solution. For the application of such polymers in novel sensors, drug delivery systems or as multifunctional coatings, they typically have to be transferred into specific arrangements, such as micelles, polymer films or grafted nanoparticles. However, it turns out that the thermodynamic concept for the phase transition of free polymer chains fails, when thermoresponsive polymers are assembled into such sterically confined architectures. Whereas many published studies focus on synthetic aspects as well as individual applications of thermoresponsive polymers, the underlying structure-property relationships governing the thermoresponse of sterically constrained assemblies, are still poorly understood. Furthermore, the clear majority of publications deals with polymers that exhibit a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior, with PNIPAAM as their main representative. In contrast, for polymer arrangements with an upper critical solution temperature (UCST), there is only limited knowledge about preparation, application and precise physical understanding of the phase transition. This review article provides an overview about the current knowledge of thermoresponsive polymers with limited mobility focusing on UCST behavior and the possibilities for influencing their thermoresponsive switching characteristics. It comprises star polymers, micelles as well as polymer chains grafted to flat substrates and particulate inorganic surfaces. The elaboration of the physicochemical interplay between the architecture of the polymer assembly and the resulting thermoresponsive switching behavior will be in the foreground of this consideration.

Abstract
Water-soluble and thermoresponsive macrocycles with stable inclusion toward guests are highly valuable to construct stimuli-responsive supramolecular materials for versatile applications. Here, we develop such macrocycles - ureido-substituted cyclodextrins (CDs) which exhibit unprecedented upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behavior in aqueous media. These novel CD derivatives showed good solubility in water at elevated temperature, but collapsed from water to form large coacervates upon cooling to low temperature. Their cloud points are greatly dependent on concentration and can be mediated through oxidation and chelation with silver ions. Significantly, the amphiphilicity of these CD derivatives is supportive to host-guest binding, which affords them inclusion abilities to guest dyes. The inclusion complexation remained nearly intact during thermally induced phase transitions, which is in contrast to the switchable inclusion behavior of lower critical solution temperature (LCST)-type CDs. Moreover, ureido-substituted CDs were exploited to co-encapsulate a pair of guest dyes whose fluorescence resonance energy transfer process can be switched by the UCST phase transition. We therefore believe these novel thermoresponsive CDs may form a new strategy for developing smart macrocycles and allow for exploring smart supramolecular materials.

Abstract
The development of novel chemoembolization agents to improve the treatment efficacy of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) against liver cancer remains an urgent need in clinical practice. Herein, a versatile composite microsphere with upper critical solution temperature (UCST) properties was prepared to encapsulate polydopamine coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION@PDA) and doxorubicin for simultaneous chemoembolization and photothermal therapy. The microspheres were spherical with an average diameter of 100-300 μm and exhibited favorable drug loading capability as well as strong photothermal effect. Strikingly, synergistic enhancement of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy against chemoresistant liver cancer cells was achieved. The in vivo therapeutic efficacy and safety evaluations were performed using rabbit VX2 liver tumor models. It was revealed that a single treatment of the combination of TACE and photothermal procedure resulted in 87.5% complete response and 12.5% partial response for the microsphere group, whereas all tumors in the control group progressed rapidly. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) evaluation indicated that the tumor diameter decreased by 91.5% after treatment, while that in the control group increased by 86.5%. The pathology-proven tumor necrotic rate was 87.2%, which significantly surpassed that of 65.2% in the control group. Furthermore, serum liver enzyme and biochemical studies indicated a temporary liver injury which can be fully recovered. Our findings demonstrated that this microsphere may be advantageous for enhancing therapeutic efficacy of TACE against liver cancer.

Abstract
A smart surface with converse temperature-dependent (CTD) wettability was fabricated from an upper critical solution temperature-type (UCST-type) poly(acrylamide-co-acrylonitrile) (P(AAm-co-AN)) copolymer. The obtained surface exhibits a remarkable and reversible hydrophobic-hydrophilic transition depending on temperature with a high response rate. The static water contact angle of the surface decreases from 103° ± 2° to 60° ± 1° as the temperature increases from 30 °C to 80 °C. Further, the wettability of the UCST-type surface shows a positive linear relationship between wettability and temperature. This study for the first time provides an UCST-type smart surface with wettability that decreases by over 35° as the temperature increases by only 20 °C.
