K C B, Nii T, Mori T, Katayama Y. Dynamic frustrated charge hotspots created by charge density modulation sequester globular proteins into complex coacervates. Chem Sci 2023; 14:6608-6620.

Abstract
This study presents a simple strategy for the sequestration of globular proteins as clients into synthetic polypeptide-based complex coacervates as a scaffold, thereby recapitulating the scaffold-client interaction found in biological condensates. Considering the low net charges of scaffold proteins participating in biological condensates, the linear charge density (σ) on the polyanion, polyethylene glycol-b-poly(aspartic acids), was reduced by introducing hydroxypropyl or butyl moieties as a charge-neutral pendant group. Complex coacervate prepared from the series of reduced-σ polyanions and the polycation, homo-poly-l-lysine, could act as a scaffold that sequestered various globular proteins with high encapsulation efficiency (>80%), which sometimes involved further agglomerations in the coacervates. The sequestration of proteins was basically driven by electrostatic interaction, and therefore depended on the ionic strength and charges of the proteins. However, based on the results of polymer partitioning in the coacervate in the presence or absence of proteins, charge ratios between cationic and anionic polymers were maintained at the charge ratio of unity. Therefore, the origin of the electrostatic interaction with proteins is considered to be dynamic frustrated charges in the complex coacervates created by non-neutralized charges on polymer chains. Furthermore, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) measurements showed that the interaction of side-chains and proteins changed the dynamic property of coacervates. It also suggested that the physical properties of the condensate are tunable before and after the sequestration of globular proteins. The present rational design approach of the scaffold-client interaction is helpful for basic life-science research and the applied frontier of artificial organelles.

Increased Enzyme Loading in PICsomes via Controlling Membrane Permeability Improves Enzyme Prodrug Cancer Therapy Outcome. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15061368. [PMID: 36987149 PMCID: PMC10057300 DOI: 10.3390/polym15061368] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Mesoscopic-sized polyion complex vesicles (PICsomes) with semi-permeable membranes are promising nanoreactors for enzyme prodrug therapy (EPT), mainly due to their ability to accommodate enzymes in their inner cavity. Increased loading efficacy and retained activity of enzymes in PICsomes are crucial for their practical application. Herein, a novel preparation method for enzyme-loaded PICsomes, the stepwise crosslinking (SWCL) method, was developed to achieve both high feed-to-loading enzyme efficiency and high enzymatic activity under in vivo conditions. Cytosine deaminase (CD), which catalyzes the conversion of the 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) prodrug to cytotoxic 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), was loaded into PICsomes. The SWCL strategy enabled a substantial increase in CD encapsulation efficiency, up to ~44% of the feeding amount. CD-loaded PICsomes (CD@PICsomes) showed prolonged blood circulation to achieve appreciable tumor accumulation via enhanced permeability and retention effect. The combination of CD@PICsomes and 5-FC produced superior antitumor activity in a subcutaneous model of C26 murine colon adenocarcinoma, even at a lower dose than systemic 5-FU treatment, and showed significantly reduced adverse effects. These results reveal the feasibility of PICsome-based EPT as a novel, highly efficient, and safe cancer treatment modality.

Abstract
The polyion complex-based supramolecular self-assembly of hexagonal nanosheets was achieved via the complexation of a PEGylated block catiomer with ATP and other polyphosphate-containing small molecules. The formation of hexagonal nanosheets required the presence of a polyethylene glycol block and α-helix formation in the catiomer block, which was induced by complexation with the polyphosphate moiety.

Abstract
The design of functional nano-objects by electrostatic self-assembly in solution signifies an emerging field with great potential. More specifically, the targeted combination of electrostatic interaction with other effects and interactions, such as the positioning of charges on stiff building blocks, the use of additional amphiphilic, π-π stacking building blocks, or polyelectrolytes with certain architectures, have recently promulgated electrostatic self-assembly to a principle for versatile defined structure formation. A large variety of architectures from spheres over rods and hollow spheres to networks in the size range of a few tenths to a few hundred nanometers can be formed. This review discusses the state-of-the-art of different approaches of nano-object formation by electrostatic self-assembly against the backdrop of corresponding solid materials and assemblies formed by other non-covalent interactions. In this regard, particularly promising is the facile formation of triggerable structures, i.e. size and shape switching through light, as well as the use of electrostatically assembled nano-objects for improved photocatalysis and the possible solar energy conversion in the future. Lately, this new field is eliciting an increasing amount of understanding; insights and limitations thereof are addressed in this article. Special emphasis is placed on the interconnection of molecular building block structures and the resulting nanoscale architecture via the key of thermodynamics.

Abstract
Polyion complex (PIC) vesicles prepared by polyelectrolyte assembly have attracted extensive attention as distinctive carriers and nanoreactors, particularly for biological cargoes. However, the constrained regulation of their structure and functionality at this stage hinder the application of PIC vesicles. Herein, we design a new asymmetric assembly system, namely cationic-neutral-cationic triblock copolymer co-assembly with a supramolecular ionic coordination polymer. The former creates poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) loops upon complexation, which are favorable for vesicle fabrication, while the coordination polyelectrolyte composed of metal ions and a dipicolinic acid (DPA)-based bis-ligand features well-defined functionalities depending on the incorporated metal ions. Thus, the rational combination allows controlled fabrication of PIC vesicles with a modulated structure and functionalities. Moreover, the encapsulation and release of hydrophilic dextran based on different PIC vesicles has been realized. Our design integrates the advantages of both triblock and coordination polymers, and therefore demonstrates a novel strategy for harmonious regulation of the structure and functionality of PIC vesicles. The revealed findings and achieved properties shall be inspirational for developing functional PIC vesicles and boosting their applications towards demand encapsulation and delivery.

Abstract
Compartmentalization is an intrinsic feature of living cells that allows spatiotemporal control over the biochemical pathways expressed in them. Over the years, a library of compartmentalized systems has been generated, which includes nano to micrometer sized biomimetic vesicles derived from lipids, amphiphilic block copolymers, peptides, and nanoparticles. Biocatalytic vesicles have been developed using a simple bag containing enzyme design of liposomes to multienzymes immobilized multi-vesicular compartments for artificial cell generation. Additionally, enzymes were also entrapped in membrane-less coacervate droplets to mimic the cytoplasmic macromolecular crowding mechanisms. Here, we have discussed different types of single and multicompartment systems, emphasizing their recent developments as biocatalytic self-assembled structures using recent examples. Importantly, we have summarized the strategies in the development of the self-assembled structure to improvise their adaptivity and flexibility for enzyme immobilization. Finally, we have presented the use of biocatalytic assemblies in mimicking different aspects of living cells, which further carves the path for the engineering of a minimal cell.

Abstract
To stabilize small interfering RNA (siRNA) in the bloodstream for systemic RNAi therapeutics, we previously fabricated ultrasmall siRNA nanocarriers that were sub-20 nm in hydrodynamic diameter, named as unit polyion complexes (uPICs), using two-branched poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(l-lysine) (bPEG-PLys). The blood retention time of uPICs is dramatically increased in the presence of free bPEG-PLys, suggesting dynamic stabilization of uPICs by free bPEG-PLys based on their equilibrium. Herein, we examined how the degree of polymerization of PLys (DPPLys) affected the dynamic stability of uPICs in the bloodstream during prolonged circulation. We prepared a series of bPEG-PLys with DPPLys values of 10, 13, 20, 40, and 80 for the uPIC formation and siRNA with 40 negative charges. These bPEG-PLys were then evaluated in physicochemical characterization and pharmacokinetic analyses. Structural analyses revealed that the uPIC size and association numbers were mainly determined by the molecular weights of PEG and DPPLys, respectively. Under bPEG-PLys-rich conditions, the hydrodynamic diameters of uPICs were 15-20 nm, which were comparable to that of the bPEG block (i.e., ∼18 nm). Importantly, DPPLys significantly affected the association constant of bPEG-PLys to siRNA (Ka) and blood retention of free bPEG-PLys. A smaller DPPLys resulted in a lower Ka and a longer blood retention time of free bPEG-PLys. Thus, DPPLys can control the dynamic stability of uPICs, i.e., the balance between Ka and blood concentration of free bPEG-PLys. Ultimately, the bPEG-PLys with DPPLys values of 14 and 19 prolonged the blood circulation of siRNA-loaded uPICs with relatively small amounts of free bPEG-PLys. This study revealed that the uPIC formation between siRNA and bPEG-PLys can be controlled by their charges, which may be helpful for designing PIC-based delivery systems.

Abstract
Therapeutic enzymes used for the treatment of a wide range of human disorders often suffer from suboptimal pharmacokinetics and stability. Engineering approaches such as encapsulation in micro- and nanocarriers, and replacements of amino acid residues of the native enzyme provide significant potential for improving the performance of enzyme therapy. Here, we develop a nanodelivery system on the base of polyion complex vesicles (PICsomes) that includes methionine γ-lyase (MGL) as a therapeutic enzyme. We have two strategies for using the enzyme: first, methionine γ-lyase is an anticancer agent removing l-methionine from plasma, second, the binary system methionine γ-lyase/S-alk(en)yl-l-cysteine sulfoxides is effective in enzyme prodrug therapy (EPT). Various lengths polymers were synthesized, and two mutant forms of the enzyme were used. The catalytic and pharmacokinetic parameters of the nanoformulations were investigated. The catalytic efficiencies of encapsulated enzymes were comparable to that of native enzymes. Pharmacokinetic analysis has shown that inclusion into PICsomes increases half-life of the enzymes, and they can be safely administered in vivo. The results suggest the further use of encapsulated MGLs for EPT and anticancer therapy, and this strategy could be leveraged to improve the efficiency of enzyme-based therapies for managing serious human diseases.

Abstract
Associations of amphiphiles assume their various morphologies according to the so-called packing parameter under thermodynamic control. However, one may raise the question of whether polymers can always relax fast enough to obey thermodynamic control, and how this may be checked. Here, a case of polyion complex (PIC) assemblies where the morphology appears to be subject to kinetic control is discussed. Poly (ethylene oxide)-b-(styrene sulfonate) block copolymers are combined with cationic PAMAM dendrimers of various generations (2-7). The PEO-PSS diblocks, and the corresponding PSS-PEO-PSS triblocks should have nearly identical packing parameters, but surprisingly creat different assemblies, namely core-shell micelles and vesicles, respectively. Moreover, the micelles are very stable against added salt, whereas the vesicles are not only much more sensitive to added salt, but also appear to exchange matter on relevant time scales. The small and largely quenched early-stage precursor complexes are responsible for the morphological and dynamic differences, implying that kinetic control may also be a way to obtain particles with well-defined and useful properties. The exciting new finding that triblocks produce more "active" vesicles will hopefully trigger the exploration of more pathways, and so learn how to tune PICsomes toward specific applications.

Abstract
RNA interference (RNAi) by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) is a promising therapeutic approach. Because siRNA has limited intracellular access and is rapidly cleared in vivo, the success of RNAi depends on efficient delivery technologies. Particularly, polyion complexation between block catiomers and siRNA is a versatile approach for constructing effective carriers, such as unit polyion complexes (uPIC), core-shell polyion complex (PIC) micelles and vesicular siRNAsomes, by engineering the structure of block catiomers. In this regard, the flexibility of block catiomers could be an important parameter in the formation of PIC nanostructures with siRNA, though its effect remains unknown. Here, we studied the influence of block catiomer flexibility on the assembly of PIC structures with siRNA using a complementary polymeric system, i.e. poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(L-lysine) (PEG-PLL) and PEG-poly(glycidylbutylamine) (PEG-PGBA), which has a relatively more flexible polycation segment than PEG-PLL. Mixing PEG-PGBA with siRNA at molar ratios of primary amines in polymer to phosphates in the siRNA (N/P ratios) higher than 1.5 promoted the multimolecular association of uPICs, whereas PEG-PLL formed uPIC at all N/P ratios higher than 1. Moreover, uPICs from PEG-PGBA were more stable against counter polyanion exchange than uPICs from PEG-PLL, probably due to a favorable complexation process, as suggested by computational studies of siRNA/block catiomer binding. In in vitro experiments, PEG-PGBA uPICs promoted effective intracellular delivery of siRNA and efficient gene knockdown. Our results indicate the significance of polycation flexibility on assembling PIC structures with siRNA, and its potential for developing innovative delivery systems.

Abstract
A photo-responsive nanovesicle is fabricated by polyion complex (PIC) formation between poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-block-polypeptides and photo-reactive oligodeoxynucleotides (PROs)/anti-sense oligonucleotides (ASOs). The ultraviolet (UV) light triggers reversible crosslinking between PROs and ASOs in the vesicular membrane, providing the nanovesicle with switchable stability under physiological conditions. The resulting nanovesicle allows efficient cellular internalization, leading to significant UV-triggered gene knockdown in cultured cells.

Abstract
The past few decades have witnessed an evolution of nanomedicine from biologically inert entities to more smart systems, aimed at advancing in vivo functionality. However, we should recognize that most systems still rely on reasonable explanation-including some over-explanation-rather than definitive evidence, which is a watershed radically determining the speed and extent of advancing nanomedicine. Probing nano-bio interactions and desirable functionality at the tissue, cellular, and molecular levels is most frequently overlooked. Progress toward answering these questions will provide instructive insight guiding more effective chemo-physical strategies. Thus, in the next generation, we argue that much effort should be made to provide definitive evidence for proof-of-mechanism, in lieu of creating many new and complicated systems for similar proof-of-concept.

Abstract
For the simultaneous delivery of antisense oligonucleotides and their effector enzymes into cells, nanosized vesicular polyion complexes (PICs) were fabricated from oppositely charged polyion pairs of oligonucleotides and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-b-polypeptides. First, the polyion component structures were carefully designed to facilitate a multimolecular (or secondary) association of unit PICs for noncovalent (or chemical cross-linking-free) stabilization of vesicular PICs. Chemically modified, single-stranded oligonucleotides (SSOs) dramatically stabilized the multimolecular associates under physiological conditions, compared to control SSOs without chemical modifications and duplex oligonucleotides. In addition, a high degree of guanidino groups in the polypeptide segment was also crucial for the high stability of multimolecular associates. Dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy revealed the stabilized multimolecular associates to have a 100 nm sized vesicular architecture with a narrow size distribution. The loading number of SSOs per nanovesicle was determined to be ∼2500 using fluorescence correlation spectroscopic analyses with fluorescently labeled SSOs. Furthermore, the nanovesicle stably encapsulated ribonuclease H (RNase H) as an effector enzyme at ∼10 per nanovesicle through simple vortex-mixing with preformed nanovesicles. Ultimately, the RNase H-encapsulated nanovesicle efficiently delivered SSOs with RNase H into cultured cancer cells, thereby eliciting the significantly higher gene knockdown compared with empty nanovesicles (without RNase H) or a mixture of nanovesicles with RNase H without encapsulation. These results demonstrate the great potential of noncovalently stabilized nanovesicles for the codelivery of two varying bio-macromolecule payloads for ensuring their cooperative biological activity.

Abstract
Protein encapsulation is a growing area of interest, particularly in the fields of food science and medicine. The sequestration of protein cargoes is achieved using a variety of methods, each with benefits and drawbacks. One of the most significant challenges associated with protein encapsulation is achieving high loading while maintaining protein viability. This difficulty is exacerbated because many encapsulant systems require the use of organic solvents. By contrast, nature has optimized strategies to compartmentalize and protect proteins inside the cell-a purely aqueous environment. Although the mechanisms whereby aspects of the cytosol is able to stabilize proteins are unknown, the crowded nature of many newly discovered, liquid phase separated "membraneless organelles" that achieve protein compartmentalization suggests that the material environment surrounding the protein may be critical in determining stability. Here, encapsulation strategies based on liquid-liquid phase separation, and complex coacervation in particular, which has many of the key features of the cytoplasm as a material, are reviewed. The literature on protein encapsulation via coacervation is also reviewed and the parameters relevant to creating protein-containing coacervate formulations are discussed. Additionally, potential opportunities associated with the creation of tailored materials to better facilitate protein encapsulation and stabilization are highlighted.

Abstract
Compared to liposomes, polymersomes of block copolymers (BCPs) possess enhanced stability, along with compromised bilayer permeability. Though polyion complex vesicles (PICsomes) from oppositely charged block polyelectrolytes possess semipermeable bilayers, they are unstable towards physiologically relevant ionic strength and temperature; moreover, permselectivity tuning of PICsomes has remained a challenge. Starting from a single component diblock or triblock precursor, we solve this dilemma by stimuli-triggered chemical reactions within pre-organized BCP vesicles, actuating in situ polymersome-to-PICsome transition and achieving molecular size-selective cargo release at tunable rates. UV light and reductive milieu were utilized to trigger carboxyl decaging and generate ion pairs within hydrophobic polymersome bilayers containing tertiary amines. Contrary to conventional PICsomes, in situ generated ones are highly stable towards extreme pH range (pH 2-12), ionic strength (~3 M NaCl), and elevated temperature (70 °C) due to multivalent ion-pair interactions at high local concentration and cooperative hydrogen bonding interactions of pre-organized carbamate linkages.

Abstract
Stabilisation of fragile oligonucleotides, typically small interfering RNA (siRNA), is one of the most critical issues for oligonucleotide therapeutics. Many previous studies encapsulated oligonucleotides into ~100-nm nanoparticles. However, such nanoparticles inevitably accumulate in liver and spleen. Further, some intractable cancers, e.g., tumours in pancreas and brain, have inherent barrier characteristics preventing the penetration of such nanoparticles into tumour microenvironments. Herein, we report an alternative approach to cancer-targeted oligonucleotide delivery using a Y-shaped block catiomer (YBC) with precisely regulated chain length. Notably, the number of positive charges in YBC is adjusted to match that of negative charges in each oligonucleotide strand (i.e., 20). The YBC rendezvouses with a single oligonucleotide in the bloodstream to generate a dynamic ion-pair, termed unit polyion complex (uPIC). Owing to both significant longevity in the bloodstream and appreciably small size (~18 nm), the uPIC efficiently delivers oligonucleotides into pancreatic tumour and brain tumour models, exerting significant antitumour activity.

Abstract
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) drugs have been considered to treat various diseases in major organs. However, siRNA drugs developed for cancer therapy are hindered from proceeding to the clinic. To date, various delivery formulations have been developed from cationic lipids, polymers, and/or inorganic nanoparticles for systemic siRNA delivery to solid tumors. Most of these delivery vehicles do not generate small particle sizes and pharmacokinetics required for accumulation in target cancer cells compared with clinically tested anticancer drug-loaded polymeric micelles. This review describes the significance of small, long-circulating vehicles for efficient delivery of siRNA to cancer tissues via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. We summarize recent biological evidence that supports the size effect of delivery vehicles in tumor microenvironments and introduce promising strategies for the construction of small vehicles with sizes of 10-50 nm. We then discuss the feasibility of these delivery vehicles with respect to translation to clinical trials.

Abstract
Polyion complexes have been known about for decades, with their applications mainly restricted to drug and gene delivery. In this study, we show that by the introduction of fluorescent charged molecules into a polyion complex, it can be used as a specific detection system for surfactants. The fluorescence of 8-hydroxy-1,3,6-pyrenetrisulfonic acid trisodium salt (HPTS) is quenched in the ionic complex, while it can be recovered with the addition of the surfactant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS), due to the stronger interaction between SDBS and the polyelectrolyte. This leads to a drastic color change of the solution, and a recovery of the strong emission of HPTS. Specifically, the fluorescence is linearly proportional to the concentration of SDBS, thus it can be used for the qualitative detection of SDBS. Furthermore, the detection limit for SDBS can be up to the order of 10-10 M. We believe that competitive dissociation of the ionic complex can be used as a general approach for the construction of new functional materials.

Abstract
Nanostructured polyion complexes (PICs) are expected to serve as novel platforms to stabilize and deliver drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids. Yet, traditional self-assembly suffers from lack of scale-up and reproducibility. Particularly for one-component PICs, only spheres are available to date. Here, we report an efficient and scalable strategy to prepare one-component low-dimensional PICs. It involves visible-light-mediated RAFT iterative polymerization of opposite-charge monomers at 25% w/w solids in water at 25 °C. Sphere-film-vesicle transition and charge-/medium-tunable shape selectivity are reported. One-component PIC nanowire, ultrathin film, vesicle, tube, and surface-charged vesicle are easily prepared, and vesicle-polymerization is fulfilled, using this new strategy. This strategy provides a general platform to prepare one-component low-dimensional PICs with tailorable morphologies and high reproducibility on commercially viable scale under eco-friendly conditions.

Abstract
Nanostructured polyion complexes (PICs) are appealing in biomaterials applications. Yet, conventional assembly suffers from the weakness in scale-up and reproducibility. Only a few low-dimensional PICs are available to date. Herein we report an efficient and scalable strategy to prepare libraries of low-dimensional PICs. It involves a visible-light-mediated RAFT polymerization of ionic monomer in the presence of a polyion of the opposite charge at 5-50 % w/w total solids concentration in water at 25 °C, namely, polymerization-induced electrostatic self-assembly (PIESA). A Vesicle, multi-compartmental vesicle, and large-area unilamellar nanofilm can be achieved in water. A long nanowire and porous nanofilm can be prepared in methanol/water. An unusual unimolecular polyion complex (uPIC)-sphere-branch/network-film transition is reported. This green chemistry offers a general platform to prepare various low-dimensional PICs with high reproducibility on a commercially viable scale under eco-friendly conditions.

Abstract
An important feature of biological systems to achieve complexity and precision is the involvement of multiple components where each component plays its own role and collaborates with other components. Mimicking this, we report living supramolecular polymerization achieved by collaborative assembly of two structurally dissimilar components, that is, platinum(II) complexes and poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PEG-b-PAA). The PAA blocks neutralize the charges of the platinum(II) complexes, with the noncovalent metal-metal and π-π interactions directing the longitudinal growth of the platinum(II) complexes into 1D crystalline nanostructures, and the PEG blocks inhibiting the transverse growth of the platinum(II) complexes and providing the whole system with excellent solubility. The ends of the 1D crystalline nanostructures have been found to be active during the assembly and remain active after the assembly. One-dimensional segmented nanostructures with heterojunctions have been produced by sequential growth of two types of platinum(II) complexes. The PAA blocks act as adapters at the heterojunctions for lattice matching between chemically and crystallographically different platinum(II) complexes, achieving heterojunctions with a lattice mismatch as large as 21%.

Abstract
The rational design of nanomedicines is a challenging task given the complex architectures required for the construction of nanosized carriers with embedded therapeutic properties and the complex interface of these materials with the biological environment. Herein, an unexpected charge-like attraction mechanism of self-assembly for star-shaped polyglutamates in nonsalty aqueous solutions is identified, which matches the ubiquitous "ordinary-extraordinary" phenomenon previously described by physicists. For the first time, a bottom-up methodology for the stabilization of these nanosized soft-assembled star-shaped polyglutamates is also described, enabling the translation of theoretical research into nanomaterials with applicability within the drug-delivery field. Covalent capture of these labile assemblies provides access to unprecedented architectures to be used as nanocarriers. The enhanced in vitro and in vivo properties of these novel nanoconstructs as drug-delivery systems highlight the potential of this approach for tumor-localized as well as lymphotropic delivery.

Abstract
Protein corona formation was regulated on the surface in vivo by molecular imprinting to enable polymeric nanogels to acquire stealth upon intravenous administration. Albumin, the most abundant protein in blood, was selected as a distinct protein component of protein corona for preparing molecularly imprinted nanogels (MIP-NGs) to form an albumin-rich protein corona. Intravital fluorescence resonance energy transfer imaging of rhodamine-labeled albumin and fluorescein-conjugated MIP-NGs showed that albumin was captured by MIP-NGs immediately after injection, forming an albumin-rich protein corona. MIP-NGs circulated in the blood longer than those of non-albumin-imprinted nanogels, with almost no retention in liver tissue. MIP-NGs also passively accumulated in tumor tissue. These data suggest that this strategy, based on regulation of the protein corona in vivo, may significantly influence the development of drug nanocarriers for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Self-assembled polypeptide aggregates have shown great promise in biomedical fields including drug delivery, tissue regeneration and regenerative medicine. In this study, we report self-assembled hydrogels based on mPEG-block-poly(l-valine) (PEV) copolymers. PEV copolymers with varying poly(l-valine) chain lengths were prepared by the ring-opening polymerization of N-carboxy anhydrides of l-valine using mPEG-NH2 as the initiator. 1H NMR and GPC confirmed their well-defined chemical structures. FT-IR analysis and DSC curves indicated the combined α-helix and β-sheet secondary polypeptide conformation and the PEG crystallization microphase in bulk solid state, respectively. Moreover, the poly(l-valine) block restricted the crystallization of PEG segment. DLS, TEM and circular dichroism spectra were employed to study the self-assembly profiles of PEV copolymers in aqueous solution. The results manifested that in diluted solution, PEV copolymers showed a combination of typical β-sheet and α-helical polypeptide structures and self-assembled into nanostructures with diverse morphologies and sizes. For concentrated PEV solutions, clear hydrogel phases were observed and dynamic rheological analyses demonstrated that the hydrogel modulus was sensitive to the polypeptide length, angular frequency, shear strain and temperature. The hydrogel formation was possibly dominated by the physical aggregation of PEV nanoassemblies as well as driven by the formation of particular polypeptide secondary structures. Human fibroblast NIH/3T3 cells were encapsulated and cultured within the hydrogel scaffolds. The encapsulated cells exhibited high viability, suggesting that PEV hydrogels have excellent cytocompatibility and could be used as three-dimensional (3D) cell culture matrices. Collectively, self-assembled PEGylated poly(l-valine) conjugate hydrogels represented a new kind of biomaterial scaffold in biomedical fields including but not limited to 3D cell culture.

Abstract
Diblock copolymers consisting of a hydrophilic poly(2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC) block and either a cationic or anionic block were prepared from (3-(methacrylamido)propyl)trimethylammonium chloride (MAPTAC) or sodium 2-(acrylamido)-2-methylpropanesulfonate (AMPS). Polymers were synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) radical polymerization using a PMPC macro-chain transfer agent. The degree of polymerization for PMPC, cationic PMAPTAC, and anionic PAMPS blocks was 20, 190, and 196, respectively. Combining two solutions of oppositely charged diblock copolymers, PMPC-b-PMAPTAC and PMPC-b-PAMPS, led to the spontaneous formation of polyion complex vesicles (PICsomes). The PICsomes were characterized using ¹H NMR, static abd dynamic light scattering, transmittance electron microscopy (TEM), and atomic force microscopy. Maximum hydrodynamic radius (Rh) for the PICsome was observed at a neutral charge balance of the cationic and anionic diblock copolymers. The Rh value and aggregation number (Nagg) of PICsomes in 0.1 M NaCl was 78.0 nm and 7770, respectively. A spherical hollow vesicle structure was observed in TEM images. The hydrodynamic size of the PICsomes increased with concentration of the diblock copolymer solutions before mixing. Thus, the size of the PICsomes can be controlled by selecting an appropriate preparation method.

Abstract
Glycopolypeptide-based self-assembled nano-/microstructures with surface-tethered carbohydrates are excellent mimics of glycoproteins on the cell surface. To expand the broad repertoire of glycopolypeptide-based supramolecular soft structures such as polymersomes formed via self-assembly of amphiphilic polymers, we have developed a new class of polyionic complex vesicles (PICsomes) with glycopolypeptides grafted on the external surface. Oppositely charged hydrophilic block copolymers of glycopolypeptide20-b-poly-l-lysine100 and PEG2k-b-poly-l-glutamate100 [PEG = poly(ethylene glycol)] were synthesized using a combination of ring-opening polymerization of N-carboxyanhydrides and "click" chemistry. Under physiological conditions, the catiomer and aniomer self-assemble to form glycopolypeptide-conjugated PICsomes (GP-PICsomes) of micrometer dimensions. Electron and atomic force microscopy suggests a hollow morphology of the PICsomes, with inner aqueous pool (core) and peripheral PIC (shell) regions. Owing to their relatively large (∼micrometers) size, the hollowness of the supramolecular structure could be established via fluorescence microscopy of single GP-PICsomes, both in solution and under dry conditions, using spatially distributed fluorescent probes. Furthermore, the dynamics of single PICsomes in solution could be imaged in real time, which also allowed us to test for multivalent interactions between PICsomes mediated by a carbohydrate (mannose)-binding protein (lectin, Con-A). The immediate association of several GP-PICsomes in the presence of Con-A and their eventual aggregation to form large insoluble aggregate clusters reveal that upon self-assembly carbohydrate moieties protrude on the outer surface which retains their biochemical activity. Challenge experiments with excess mannose reveal fast deaggregation of GP-PICsomes as opposed to that in the presence of excess galactose, which further establishes the specificity of lectin-mediated polyvalent interactions of the GP-PICsomes.

Abstract
Supramolecular self-assembly into various nano- or microscopic structures based on non-covalent interactions between molecules has been recognized as a very efficient approach that leads to functional materials. Since most non-covalent interactions are relatively weak and form and break without significant activation barriers, the thermodynamic equilibrium of many supramolecular systems can be easily influenced by processing pathways that allow the system to stay in a kinetically trapped state. Thus far, kinetic traps have been found to be very important in producing more elaborate structural and functional diversity of self-assembled systems. In this review, we try to summarize the approaches that can produce kinetically trapped self-assemblies based on examples made by us. We focus on the following subjects: (1) supramolecular pathway dependent self-assembly, including kinetically trapped self-assemblies facilitated by host-guest chemistry, coordination chemistry, and electrostatic interactions; (2) physical processing pathway dependent self-assembly, including solvent quality controlled self-assembly, evaporation induced self-assembly and crystallization induced self-assembly.

Abstract
A supramolecular poly-electrolyte complex (SPEC) comprising poly-electrolyte acrylic acid with supramolecularly complexed guanidium is reported. This complex shows pH responsive phase transitions, which are described and characterized using microscopy, spectroscopy, density functional theory studies and Monte Carlo simulations. The phase behaviour of the SPEC is exploited by loading a dye like perylene and a drug, viz., doxorubicin, and their pH dependent controlled release is demonstrated, owing to the pH dependent phase change of the SPEC.
