Abstract
The irregular expression or activity of enzymes in the human body leads to various pathological disorders and can therefore be used as an intrinsic trigger for more precise identification of disease foci and controlled release of diagnostics and therapeutics, leading to improved diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and therapeutic efficacy while reducing systemic toxicity. Advanced synthesis strategies enable the preparation of polymers with enzymatically activatable skeletons or side chains, while understanding enzymatically responsive mechanisms promotes rational incorporation of activatable units and predictions of the release profile of diagnostics and therapeutics, ultimately leading to promising applications in disease diagnosis and treatment with superior biocompatibility and efficiency. By overcoming the challenges, new opportunities will emerge to inspire researchers to develop more efficient, safer, and clinically reliable enzymatically activatable polymeric carriers as well as prodrugs.

Abstract
To expand the field of high-value utilization of lignin. The degraded deep eutectic solvent lignin-grafted poly (N-Vinyl caprolactam) (DES-lignin-g-PNVCL) was synthesized by modified DES-lignin and NVCL via the combination of activators regenerated by electron transfer-atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET-ATRP). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 1H NMR, X-ray electron spectroscopy (XPS), dynamic light scattering (DLS), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) were used to characterize the structure and performance of DES-lignin-g-PNVCL. The results indicated that the PNVCL and DES-lignin-g-PNVCL were successfully prepared by ARGET-ATRP. The lowest critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNVCL was 35.75 °C. Due to different strength of hydrogen bond, different energies were required, so the LCST of the polymer can be regulated. When the molar ratio of phenolic hydroxyl group in degraded DES-lignin to 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide (BiBB) was increased from 1:1 to 1:7, the grafting rate of DES-lignin-Br was increased from 32.87% to 60.84%, and the LCST of DES-lignin-g-PNVCL was decreased from 47.98 °C to 27.88 °C. The LCST of DES-lignin-g-PNVCL was increased from 30.98 °C to 44.64 °C when the addition amount of DES-lignin-Br was increased from 20 mg to 200 mg. The LCST of DES-lignin-g-PNVCL was increased from 27.20 °C to 39.86 °C when the ratio of DMF/water was increased from 1:4 to 4:1. The LCST of DES-lignin-g-PNVCL was decreased from 52.10 °C to 31.02 °C when the concentration of DES-lignin-g-PNVCL was increased from 0.5 mg/mL to 2.5 mg/mL. The equation represented the relationship between LCST and influencing factors was obtained, the good predictability provided a tactics for preparing desired LCST thermo-responsible polymer.

Dextran based amphiphilic self-assembled biopolymeric macromolecule synthesized via RAFT polymerization as indomethacin carrier. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 183:718-726.

Abstract
This work demonstrates a facile pathway to develop a biopolymer based amphiphilic macromolecule through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, using dextran (a biopolymer) as starting material. Also, a new hydrophobic monomer [2-methyl-acrylic acid 1-benzyl-1H-[1,2,3] triazol-4-ylmethyl ester (MABTE)] has been synthesized using methacrylic acid via "click" approach. The resultant copolymer displays controlled radical polymerization characteristics: narrow polydispersity (Ð) and controlled molecular weight as obtained through advanced polymer chromatography (APC) analysis. In aqueous solution, the copolymer can proficiently be self-assembled to provide micellar structure, which has been evidenced from field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses. The in-vitro cytotoxicity study illustrates the nontoxic nature of the copolymer up to 100 μg/mL polymer concentration. The copolymer has been found to be worthy as an efficient carrier for the sustained release of hydrophobic drug: Indomethacin (IND).

Abstract
Ultrasonic agitation is an external stimulus, rapidly developed in recent years in the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) approach. This review presents the current state-of-the-art in the application of ultrasound in ATRP, including an initially-developed, mechanically-initiated solution with the use of piezoelectric nanoparticles, that next goes to the ultrasonication-mediated method utilizing ultrasound as a factor for producing radicals through the homolytic cleavage of polymer chains, or the sonolysis of solvent or other small molecules. Future perspectives in the field of ultrasound in ATRP are presented, focusing on the preparation of more complex architectures with highly predictable molecular weights and versatile properties. The challenges also include biohybrid materials. Recent advances in the ultrasound-mediated ATRP point out this approach as an excellent tool for the synthesis of advanced materials with a wide range of potential industrial applications.
