Abstract
Periodontal disease affects supporting dental structures and ranks among one of the top most expensive conditions to treat in the world. Moreover, in recent years, the disease has also been linked to cardiovascular and Alzheimer's diseases. At present, there is a serious lack of accurate diagnostic tools to identify people at severe risk of periodontal disease progression. Porphyromonas gingivalis is often considered one of the most contributing factors towards disease progression. It produces the Arg- and Lys-specific proteases Rgp and Kgp, respectively. Within this work, a short epitope sequence of these proteases is immobilised onto a magnetic nanoparticle platform. These are then used as a template to produce high-affinity, selective molecularly imprinted nanogels, using the common monomers N-tert-butylacrylamide (TBAM), N-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM), and N-(3-aminopropyl) methacrylamide hydrochloride (APMA). N,N-Methylene bis(acrylamide) (BIS) was used as a crosslinking monomer to form the interconnected polymeric network. The produced nanogels were immobilised onto a planar gold surface and characterised using the optical technique of surface plasmon resonance. They showed high selectivity and affinity towards their template, with affinity constants of 79.4 and 89.7 nM for the Rgp and Kgp epitope nanogels, respectively. From their calibration curves, the theoretical limit of detection was determined to be 1.27 nM for the Rgp nanogels and 2.00 nM for the Kgp nanogels. Furthermore, they also showed excellent selectivity against bacterial culture supernatants E8 (Rgp knockout), K1A (Kgp knockout), and W50-d (wild-type) strains in complex medium of brain heart infusion (BHI).

[PMID: 38845512 PMCID: PMC11165394 DOI: 10.3724/sp.j.1123.2024.01011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Given continuous improvements in industrial production and living standards, the analysis and detection of complex biological sample systems has become increasingly important. Common complex biological samples include blood, serum, saliva, and urine. At present, the main methods used to separate and recognize target analytes in complex biological systems are electrophoresis, spectroscopy, and chromatography. However, because biological samples consist of complex components, they suffer from the matrix effect, which seriously affects the accuracy, sensitivity, and reliability of the selected separation analysis technique. In addition to the matrix effect, the detection of trace components is challenging because the content of the analyte in the sample is usually very low. Moreover, reasonable strategies for sample enrichment and signal amplification for easy analysis are lacking. In response to the various issues described above, researchers have focused their attention on immuno-affinity technology with the aim of achieving efficient sample separation based on the specific recognition effect between antigens and antibodies. Following a long period of development, this technology is now widely used in fields such as disease diagnosis, bioimaging, food testing, and recombinant protein purification. Common immuno-affinity technologies include solid-phase extraction (SPE) magnetic beads, affinity chromatography columns, and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Immuno-affinity techniques can successfully reduce or eliminate the matrix effect; however, their applications are limited by a number of disadvantages, such as high costs, tedious fabrication procedures, harsh operating conditions, and ligand leakage. Thus, developing an effective and reliable method that can address the matrix effect remains a challenging endeavor. Similar to the interactions between antigens and antibodies as well as enzymes and substrates, biomimetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) exhibit high specificity and affinity. Furthermore, compared with many other biomacromolecules such as antigens and aptamers, MIPs demonstrate higher stability, lower cost, and easier fabrication strategies, all of which are advantageous to their application. Therefore, molecular imprinting technology (MIT) is frequently used in SPE, chromatographic separation, and many other fields. With the development of MIT, researchers have engineered different types of imprinting strategies that can specifically extract the target analyte in complex biological samples while simultaneously avoiding the matrix effect. Some traditional separation technologies based on MIP technology have also been studied in depth; the most common of these technologies include stationary phases used for chromatography and adsorbents for SPE. Analytical methods that combine MIT with highly sensitive detection technologies have received wide interest in fields such as disease diagnosis and bioimaging. In this review, we highlight the new MIP strategies developed in recent years, and describe the applications of MIT-based separation analysis methods in fields including chromatographic separation, SPE, diagnosis, bioimaging, and proteomics. The drawbacks of these techniques as well as their future development prospects are also discussed.

Abstract
Nanomoduling the 3D shape and chemical functionalities in a synthetic polymer may create recognition cavities for biomacromolecule binding, which serves as an attractive alternative to natural antibodies with much less cost. To obtain fundamental understanding and predict molecular design rules of the polymer antibody, we analyze the complex structure between the biomarker protein epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and a series of polymer ligands via molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. For monomeric ligands, strong enrichment of aromatic residues in protein binding sites is revealed, in line with the reported observations for natural antibodies. Yet, for linear polymers with a growing degree of polymerization, for the first time, a drastic change is revealed on the type of enriched protein residues and the location of protein binding sites, driven by the increasing steric hindrance effect that makes the adsorption of the polymer in the protein exterior feasible. Varying the polymer length and monomeric composition also significantly affects the ligand binding affinity. Here, we have captured three distinct dependences of the ligand binding free energy on the degree of polymerization: for NIPAm based hydrophilic polymers, TBAm dominated hydrophobic polymers and AAc dominated charged polymers. These results can be rationalized by the complex structure and the composition of protein residues at the binding interface. The entire analysis demonstrates unique binding features for polymer ligands and the possibility to modulate their binding sites and affinity by engineering the polymer structure.

Abstract
Cell culture-based technologies are widely utilized in various domains such as drug evaluation, toxicity assessment, vaccine and biopharmaceutical development, reproductive technology, and regenerative medicine. It has been demonstrated that pre-adsorption of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins including collagen, laminin and fibronectin provide more degrees of support for cell adhesion. The purpose of cell imprinting is to imitate the natural topography of cell membranes by gels or polymers to create a reliable environment for the regulation of cell function. The results of recent studies show that cell imprinting is a tool to guide the behavior of cultured cells by controlling their adhesive interactions with surfaces. Therefore, in this review we aim to compare different cell cultures with the imprinting method and discuss different cell imprinting applications in regenerative medicine, personalized medicine, disease modeling, and cell therapy.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are synthetic polymers with specific binding sites that present high affinity and spatial and chemical complementarities to a targeted analyte. They mimic the molecular recognition seen naturally in the antibody/antigen complementarity. Because of their specificity, MIPs can be included in sensors as a recognition element coupled to a transducer part that converts the interaction of MIP/analyte into a quantifiable signal. Such sensors have important applications in the biomedical field in diagnosis and drug discovery, and are a necessary complement of tissue engineering for analyzing the functionalities of the engineered tissues. Therefore, in this review, we provide an overview of MIP sensors that have been used for the detection of skeletal- and cardiac-muscle-related analytes. We organized this review by targeted analytes in alphabetical order. Thus, after an introduction to the fabrication of MIPs, we highlight different types of MIP sensors with an emphasis on recent works and show their great diversity, their fabrication, their linear range for a given analyte, their limit of detection (LOD), specificity, and reproducibility. We conclude the review with future developments and perspectives.

Abstract
Antibodies have been a mainstream class of therapeutics for clinical treatment of various diseases, especially cancers. However, mutation in cancer cells leads to resistance to therapeutic antibodies, hyperactivity of proliferation of cancer cells, and difficulty in the development of therapeutic antibodies. Herein, we present a strategy termed molecularly imprinted nanotransducer (MINT) for targeted photodynamic therapy (PDT) of mutated cancers. The MINT is a rationally engineered nanocomposite featuring a core of an upconversion nanoparticle, a shell of a thin layer of molecularly imprinted polymer, and a photosensitizer modified on the surface. As a proof-of-principle, truncated HER2 (P95HER2) overexpressed breast cancer, a challenging cancer lacking effective targeted therapeutics, was used as the cancer model. The designed structure, properties, functions, and anticancer efficacy of MINT were systematically investigated and experimentally confirmed. The MINT could not only specifically target P95HER2+ cancer cells in vitro and in vivo but also efficiently transfer the irradiated light and generate excited-state oxygen, resulting in efficient targeted cancer killing. Therefore, the MINT strategy provides a promising therapeutic for targeted PDT of drug-resistant cancers caused by target mutation.

Abstract
Molecular imprinting technology has been around for almost a century, and we have witnessed dramatic advancements in the overall design and production of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), particularly in terms of possible formats of the final products when it comes to truly resembling antibody substitutes, i.e., MIP nanoparticles (MIP NPs). Nonetheless, the overall technology appears to struggle to keep up with the current global sustainability efforts, as recently elucidated in the latest comprehensive reviews, which introduced the "GREENIFICATION" concept. In this review, we will try to elucidate if these advancements in MIP nanotechnology have indeed resulted in a sustainability amelioration. We will do so by discussing the general production and purification strategies for MIP NPs, specifically from a sustainability and biodegradation perspective, also considering the final intended application and ultimate waste management.

Abstract
The aggregation of β-amyloid peptides (Aβ), implied in the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease, is driven by a complex set of intramolecular and intermolecular interactions involving both hydrophobic and polar residues. The key residues responsible for the forward assembling process may be different from those that should be targeted to disassemble already formed aggregates. Molecularly imprinted nanoparticle (MINP) receptors are reported in this work to strongly and selectively bind specific segments of Aβ40. Combined fluorescence spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy indicate that binding residues 21-30 near the loop region is most effective at inhibiting the aggregation of monomeric Aβ40, but residues 11-20 that include the internal β strand closer to the N-terminal represent the best target for disaggregating already formed aggregates in the polymerization phase. Once the aggregation proceeds to the saturation phase, binding residues 1-10 has the largest effect on the disaggregation, likely because of the accessibility of these amino acids relative to others to the MINP receptors.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are chemical antibody mimics obtained by nanomoulding the 3D shape and chemical functionalities of a desired target in a synthetic polymer. Consequently, they possess exquisite molecular recognition cavities for binding the target molecule, often with specificity and affinity similar to those of antigen-antibody interactions. Research on MIPs targeting proteins began in the mid-90s, and this review will evaluate the progress made till now, starting from their synthesis in a monolith bulk format through surface imprinting to biocompatible soluble nanogels prepared by solid-phase synthesis. MIPs in the latter format will be discussed more in detail because of their tremendous potential of replacing antibodies in the biomedical domain like in diagnostics and therapeutics, where the workforce of antibodies is concentrated. Emphasis is also put on the development of epitope imprinting, which consists of imprinting a short surface-exposed fragment of a protein, resulting in MIPs capable of selectively recognizing the whole macromolecule, amidst others in complex biological media, on cells or tissues. Thus selecting the 'best' peptide antigen is crucial and in this context a rational approach, inspired from that used to predict peptide immunogens for peptide antibodies, is described for its unambiguous identification.

Abstract
The review aims to summarize recent reports of stimuli-responsive nanomaterials based on molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and discuss their applications in biomedicine. In the past few decades, MIPs have been proven to show widespread applications as new molecular recognition materials. The development of stimuli-responsive nanomaterials has successfully endowed MIPs with not only affinity properties comparable to those of natural antibodies but also the ability to respond to external stimuli (stimuli-responsive MIPs). In this review, we will discuss the synthesis of MIPs, the classification of stimuli-responsive MIP nanomaterials (MIP-NMs), their dynamic mechanisms, and their applications in biomedicine, including bioanalysis and diagnosis, biological imaging, drug delivery, disease intervention, and others. This review mainly focuses on studies of smart MIP-NMs with biomedical perspectives after 2015. We believe that this review will be helpful for the further exploration of stimuli-responsive MIP-NMs and contribute to expanding their practical applications especially in biomedicine in the near future.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP) have shown their potential as artificial and selective receptors for environmental monitoring. These materials can be tailor-made to achieve a specific binding event with a template through a chosen mechanism. They are capable of emulating the recognition capacity of biological receptors with superior stability and versatility of integration in sensing platforms. Commonly, these polymers are produced by traditional free radical bulk polymerization (FRP) which may not be the most suitable for enhancing the intended properties due to the poor imprinting performance. To improve the imprinting technique and the polymer capabilities, controlled/living radical polymerization (CRP) has been used to overcome the main drawbacks of FRP. Combining CRP techniques such as RAFT (reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer) with MIP has achieved higher selectivity, sensitivity, and sorption capacity of these polymers when implemented as the transductor element in sensors. The present work focuses on RAFT-MIP design and synthesis strategies to enhance the binding affinities and their implementation in environmental contaminant sensing applications.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers - MIPs - denote synthetic polymeric structures that selectively recognize the molecule of interest against which MIPs are templated. A number of works have demonstrated that MIPs can exceed the affinity and selectivity of natural antibodies, yet operating by the same principle of "lock and key". In contrast to antibodies, which have certain limitations related to the minimal size of the antigen, nanoMIPs can be fabricated against almost any target molecule irrespective of its size and low immunogenicity. Furthermore, the cost of MIP production is much lower compared to the cost of antibody production. Excitingly, MIPs can be used as nanocontainers for specific delivery of therapeutics both in vitro and in vivo. The adoption of the solid phase synthesis rendered MIPs precise reproducible characteristics and, as a consequence, improved the controlled release of therapeutic payloads. These major breakthroughs paved the way for applicability of MIPs in medicine as a novel class of therapeutics. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the fabrication of MIPs, mechanisms of controlled release from the MIPs, and their applicability in biomedical research.

Abstract
Due to the differential interactions among lipids and proteins, the plasma membrane can segregate into a series of functional nanoscale membrane domains ("lipid rafts"), which are essential in multiple biological processes such as signaling transduction, protein trafficking and endocytosis. On the other hand, Janus nanoparticles (NPs) have shown great promise in various biomedical applications due to their asymmetric characteristics and can integrate different surface properties and thus synergetic functions. Hence, in this work, we aim to design an amphiphilic Janus NP to target and regulate lipid rafts via tuning its surface ligand amphiphilicity using coarse-grained molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Our μs-scale free coarse-grained MD simulations as well as umbrella sampling free energy calculations indicated that the hydrophobicity of the hydrophobic surface ligands not only determined the lateral membrane partitioning thermodynamics of Janus NPs in phase-separated lipid membranes, but also the difficulty in their insertion into different membrane domains of the lipid membrane. These two factors jointly regulated the lipid raft affinity of Janus NPs. Meanwhile, the hydrophilicity of the hydrophilic surface ligands could affect the insertion ability of Janus NPs. Besides, the ultra-small size could ensure the membrane-bound behavior of Janus NPs without disrupting the overall structure and phase separation kinetics of the lipid membrane. These results may provide valuable insights into the design of functional NPs targeting and controllably regulating lipid rafts.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have been widely used in important biomedical applications such as imaging, drug delivery, and disease therapy, in which targeting toward specific proteins is often essential. However, current targeting strategies mainly rely on surface modification with bioligands, which not only often fail to provide desired properties but also remain challenging. Here an unprecedented approach is reported, called reverse microemulsion-confined epitope-oriented surface imprinting and cladding (ROSIC), for facile, versatile, and controllable engineering coreless and core/shell nanoparticles with tunable monodispersed size as well as specific targeting capability toward proteins and peptides. Via engineering coreless imprinted and cladded silica nanoparticles, the effectiveness and superiority over conventional imprinting of the proposed approach are first verified. The prepared nanoparticles exhibit both high specificity and high affinity. Using quantum dots, superparamagnetic nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, and upconverting nanoparticles as a representative set of core substrates, a variety of imprinted and cladded single-core/shell nanoparticles are then successfully prepared. Finally, using imprinted and cladded fluorescent nanoparticles as probes, in vitro targeted imaging of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and in vivo targeted imaging of TNBC-bearing mice are achieved. This approach opens a new avenue to engineering of nanoparticles for targeting specific proteins, holding great prospects in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Epitope imprinting has proved to be an effective way for fabricating artificial receptors for protein recognition. Surface imprinting over sacrificial supports is particularly favorable for generating high-quality epitope-imprinted cavities, but obtaining nanomaterials by this way is still a challenge. Herein, we propose a method for the synthesis of oriented surface epitope-imprinted open-mouthed polymer nanocapsules (OM-MIP NCs) by sacrificing asymmetric template-modified Janus nanocores. Amine/aldehyde functionalized SiO2 Janus nanoparticles were prepared via the molten-wax-in-water Pickering emulsion approach, an easy scale-up technique. Epitope templates and vinyl groups were coupled to the aldehyde-bearing major side, whereas polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains were grafted to the amine-modified side. Incomplete imprinted shells were then generated principally on the non-PEGylated side via aqueous precipitation polymerization, hence affording OM-MIP NCs after etching the SiO2 nanocores. With a C-terminus nonapeptide of bovine serum albumin (BSA) chosen as a model epitope and polymerizable carbon dots added to the pre-polymerization solution, fluorescent OM-MIP NCs were synthesized for sensing of BSA. Such NCs reached maximal fluorescent response within 15 min, greatly faster than the closed imprinted NCs within 130 min, proving good accessibility of their inner-surface imprinted cavities thanks to the open mouths. Furthermore, they showed excellent target protein detection performance, with an imprinting factor of 7.8, a limit of detection of 43.8 nM and a linear range of 0.2-6 μM. The recoveries in bovine serum samples at four spiking levels ranged from 99.2 to 107.2%, with relative standard deviations of 1.2-5.9%.

Abstract
Molecular imprinting (MI) has been explored as an increasingly viable tool for molecular recognition in various fields. However, imprinting of biologically relevant molecules like proteins is severely hampered by several problems. Inspired by natural antibodies, the use of epitopes as imprinting templates has been explored to circumvent those limitations, offering lower costs and greater versatility. Here, we review the latest innovations in this technology, as well as different applications where MI polymers (MIPs) have been used to target biomolecules of interest. We discuss the several steps in MI, from the choice of epitope and functional monomers to the different production methods and possible applications. We also critically explore how MIP performance can be assessed by various parameters. Last, we present perspectives on future breakthroughs and advances, offering insights into how MI techniques can be expanded to new fields such as tissue engineering.

Abstract
At present, some bacteria have developed significant resistance to almost all available antibiotics. One of the reasons that cannot be ignored is long-term exposure of bacteria to the sub-minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibiotics. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a targeted antibiotic delivery system to improve drug delivery behavior, in order to delay the generation of bacterial drug resistance. In recent years, with the continuous development of nanotechnology, various types of nanocarriers that respond to the infection microenvironment, targeting specific bacterial targets, and targeting infected cells, and so on, are gradually being used in the delivery of antibacterial agents to increase the concentration of drugs at the site of infection and reduce the side effects of drugs in normal tissues. Here, this article describes in detail the latest research progress on nanocarriers for antimicrobial, and commonly used targeted antimicrobial strategies. The advantages of the combination of nanotechnology and targeting strategies in combating bacterial infections are highlighted in this review, and the upcoming opportunities and remaining challenges in this field are rationally prospected.

Abstract
Proteins are involved in practically every single biological process. The many enzymes involved in their synthesis, cleavage, and posttranslational modification (PTM) carry out highly specific tasks with no usage of protecting groups. Yet, the chemists' strategy of protection/deprotection potentially can be highly useful, for example, when a specific biochemical reaction catalyzed by a broad-specificity enzyme needs to be inhibited, during infection of cells by enveloped viruses, in the invasion and spread of cancer cells, and upon mechanistic investigation of signal-transduction pathways. Doing so requires highly specific binding of peptide substrates in aqueous solution with biologically competitive affinities. Recent development of peptide-imprinted cross-linked micelles allows such protection and affords previously impossible ways of manipulating peptides and proteins in enzymatic transformations.

Abstract
Food safety and quality control pose serious issues to food industry and public health domains, in general, with direct effects on consumers. Any physical, chemical, or biological unexpected or unidentified food constituent may exhibit harmful effects on people and animals from mild to severe reactions. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), unsafe foodstuffs are especially dangerous for infants, young children, elderly, and chronic patients. It is imperative to continuously develop new technologies to detect foodborne pathogens and contaminants in order to aid the strengthening of healthcare and economic systems. In recent years, peptide-based sensors gained much attention in the field of food research as an alternative to immuno-, apta-, or DNA-based sensors. This review presents an overview of the electrochemical biosensors using peptides as molecular bio-recognition elements published mainly in the last decade, highlighting their possible application for rapid, non-destructive, and in situ analysis of food samples. Comparison with peptide-based optical and piezoelectrical sensors in terms of analytical performance is presented. Methods of foodstuffs pretreatment are also discussed.

Abstract
Programmed death-ligand 1 protein (PD-L1) has been posited to have a major role in suppressing the immune system during pregnancy, tissue allografts, autoimmune disease and other diseases, such as hepatitis. Photodynamic therapy uses light and a photosensitizer to generate singlet oxygen, which causes cell death (phototoxicity). In this work, photosensitizers (such as merocyanine) were immobilized on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles. One peptide sequence from PD-L1 was used as the template and imprinted onto poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) to generate magnetic composite nanoparticles for the targeting of PD-L1 on tumor cells. These nanoparticles were characterized using dynamic light scattering, high-performance liquid chromatography, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis and superconducting quantum interference magnetometry. Natural killer-92 cells were added to these composite nanoparticles, which were then incubated with human hepatoma (HepG2) cells and illuminated with visible light for various periods. The viability and apoptosis pathway of HepG2 were examined using a cell counting kit-8 and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Finally, treatment with composite nanoparticles and irradiation of light was performed using an animal xenograft model.

Abstract
Proteolysis of proteins and peptides is involved in the infection of cells by enveloped viruses and also in the invasion and spread of cancer cells. Shutting down broad‐specificity proteases, however, is problematic because normal functions by these proteases will be affected. Herein, nanoparticle receptors were prepared from molecular imprinting for complex biological peptides. Their strong and selective binding enabled them to protect their targeted sequences from proteolysis in aqueous solution at stoichiometric amounts. Generality of the method was demonstrated by the protection of hydrophobic and hydrophilic peptides from different proteases, selective protection of a segment of a long peptide, and selective protection of a targeted peptide in a mixture. Most interestingly, two receptors targeting different parts of a long peptide could work in cooperation to protect the overall sequence, highlighting the versatility of the method.

Abstract
As a kind of artificial recognition material, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) offer a promising perspective to be developed as synthetic chemical binders capable of selectively recognize biomacromolecules. However, owing to the large size and conformational flexibility of proteins and peptides, imprinting of these biomacromolecules remains a challenge. Novel imprinting strategies still need exploration for the improvement of recognition performance of MIPs. Herein, we developed a hydrazone bond-oriented surface imprinting strategy for an endogenous peptide hormone, human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Surface-oriented imprinting of peptide via reversible covalent bond anchoring approach increased the orientation homogeneity of imprinted cavities as well as the utility of templates. The prepared nanoparticles exhibited high selectivity and fast recognition kinetics for ANP epitope. The dissociation constant between ANP epitope and MIP was measured as 5.3 μM. The applicability of the material in real samples was verified by the selective magnetic extraction of ANP from human plasma samples. This hydrazone bond-oriented surface imprinting strategy provides an alternative approach for the separation of peptides or proteins in complex bio-samples.

Abstract
Here, we report on an electrochemical biosensor based on core-shell structure of gold nano/micro-islands (NMIs) and electropolymerized imprinted ortho-phenylenediamine (o-PD) for detection of heart-fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP). The shape and distribution of NMIs (the core) were tuned by controlled electrodeposition of gold on a thin layer of electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO). NMIs feature a large active surface area to achieve a low detection limit (2.29 fg mL-1, a sensitivity of 1.34 × 1013 μA mM-1) and a wide linear range of detection (1 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1) in PBS. Facile template H-FABP removal from the layer (the shell) in less than 1 min, high specificity against interference from myoglobin and troponin T, great stability at ambient temperature, and rapidity in detection of H-FABP (approximately 30 s) are other advantages of this biomimetic biosensor. The electrochemical measurements in human serum, human plasma, and bovine serum showed acceptable recovery (between 91.1 ± 1.7 and 112.9 ± 2.1%) in comparison with the ELISA method. Moreover, the performance of the biosensor in clinical serum showed lower detection time and limit of detection against lateral flow assay (LFA) rapid test kits, as a reference method. Ultimately, the proposed biosensor based on the core-shell structure of gold NMIs and MIP opens interesting avenues in the detection of proteins with low cost, high sensitivity and significantstability for clinical applications.

Abstract
Foodborne illnesses represent high costs worldwide in terms of medical care and productivity. To ensure safety along the food chain, technologies that help to monitor and improve food preservation have emerged in a multidisciplinary context. These technologies focus on the detection and/or removal of either biological (e.g., bacteria, virus, etc.) or chemical (e.g., drugs and pesticides) safety hazards. Imprinted polymers are synthetic receptors able of recognizing both chemical and biological contaminants. While numerous reviews have focused on the use of these robust materials in extraction and separation applications, little bibliography summarizes the research that has been performed on their coupling to sensing platforms for food safety. The aim of this work is therefore to fill this gap and highlight the multidisciplinary aspects involved in the application of imprinting technology in the whole value chain ranging from IP preparation to integrated sensor systems for the specific recognition and quantification of chemical and microbiological contaminants in food samples.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are tailor-made chemical receptors that recognize and bind target molecules with a high affinity and selectivity. MIPs came into the spotlight in 1993 when they were dubbed "antibody mimics," and ever since, they have been widely studied for the extraction or trapping of chemical pollutants, in immunoassays, and for the design of sensors. Owing to novel synthesis strategies resulting in more biocompatible MIPs in the form of soluble nanogels, these synthetic antibodies have found favor in the biomedical domain since 2010, when for the first time, they were shown to capture and eliminate a toxin in live mice. This review, covering the years 2015-2020, will first describe the rationale behind these antibody mimics, and the different synthesis methods that have been employed for the preparation of MIPs destined for in vitro and in vivo targeting and bioimaging of cancer biomarkers, an emerging and fast-growing area of MIP applications. MIPs have been synthesized for targeting and visualizing glycans and protein-based cell receptors overexpressed in certain diseases, which are well-known biomarkers for example for tumors. When loaded with drugs, the MIPs could locally kill the tumor cells, making them efficient therapeutic agents. We will end the review by reporting how MIPs themselves can act as therapeutics by inhibiting cancer growth. These works mark a new opening in the use of MIPs for antibody therapy and even immunotherapy, as materials of the future in nanomedicine.

Abstract
Accurate, simple, and valuable analytical methods for detection of food contamination are rapidly expanding to evaluate the validity of food product quality because of ethnic considerations and food safety. Herein molecularly imprinted nanogels (MIP-NGs), capable of porcine serum albumin (PSA) recognition, were prepared as artificial molecular recognition elements. The MIP-NGs were immobilized on a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor for detection of pork contamination in real beef extract samples. The MIP-NGs-based QCM sensor showed high affinity and excellent selectivity toward PSA compared to reference serum albumins from five different animals. The high PSA specificity of MIP-NGs led to the detection of pork contamination with a detection limit of 1% (v/v) in real beef extract samples. We believe the artificial molecular recognition materials prepared by molecular imprinting are a promising candidate for halal food control.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are synthetic receptors with tailor-made recognition sites for target molecules. Their high affinity and selectivity, excellent stability, easy preparation, and low cost make them promising substitutes to biological receptors in many applications where molecular recognition is important. In particular, spherical MIP nanoparticles (or nanoMIPs) with diameters typically below 200 nm have drawn great attention because of their high surface-area-to-volume ratio, easy removal of templates, rapid binding kinetics, good dispersion and handling ability, undemanding functionalization and surface modification, and their high compatibility with various nanodevices and in vivo biomedical applications. Recent years have witnessed significant progress made in the preparation of advanced functional nanoMIPs, which has eventually led to the rapid expansion of the MIP applications from the traditional separation and catalysis fields to the burgeoning biomedical areas. Here, a comprehensive overview of key recent advances made in the preparation of nanoMIPs and their important biomedical applications (including immunoassays, drug delivery, bioimaging, and biomimetic nanomedicine) is presented. The pros and cons of each synthetic strategy for nanoMIPs and their biomedical applications are discussed and the present challenges and future perspectives of the biomedical applications of nanoMIPs are also highlighted.

Abstract
Increased pressure on upstream processes to maximize productivity has been crowned with great success, although at the cost of shifting the bottleneck to purification. As drivers were economical, focus is on now on debottlenecking downstream processes as the main drivers of high manufacturing cost. Devising a holistically efficient and economical process remains a key challenge. Traditional and emerging protein purification strategies with particular emphasis on methodologies implemented for the production of recombinant proteins of biopharmaceutical importance are reviewed. The breadth of innovation is addressed, as well as the challenges the industry faces today, with an eye to remaining impartial, fair, and balanced. In addition, the scope encompasses both chromatographic and non-chromatographic separations directed at the purification of proteins, with a strong emphasis on antibodies. Complete solutions such as integrated USP/DSP strategies (i.e., continuous processing) are discussed as well as gains in data quantity and quality arising from automation and high-throughput screening (HTS). Best practices and advantages through design of experiments (DOE) to access a complex design space such as multi-modal chromatography are reviewed with an outlook on potential future trends. A discussion of single-use technology, its impact and opportunities for further growth, and the exciting developments in modeling and simulation of DSP rounds out the overview. Lastly, emerging trends such as 3D printing and nanotechnology are covered. Graphical Abstract Workflow of high-throughput screening, design of experiments, and high-throughput analytics to understand design space and design space boundaries quickly.

Abstract
Sequence-selective recognition of peptides in water has been one of the most important and yet unsolved problems in bioorganic and supramolecular chemistry. The motivation comes from not only the importance of these molecules in biology but also the fundamental challenges involved in the research. Molecular imprinting in doubly cross-linked surfactant micelles offers a unique solution to this problem by creating a "supramolecular code" on the micelle surface that matches the structural features of the peptide chain. Hydrophobic "dimples" are constructed on imprinted micelles that match the hydrophobic side chains of the peptide precisely in size and shape. Polar binding functionalities are installed at correct positions to interact with specific acidic and basic groups on the peptide. Secondary hydrogen-bonding and electrostatic interactions are introduced through imprinting to enhance the binding affinity and specificity further. Binding affinities of tens of nanomolar are readily achieved in water for biological peptides with over a dozen residues. Excellent binding selectivity is observed even for subtly different peptides. The synthesis of these protein-sized nanoparticles involves a one-pot reaction complete within 2 days; purification requires nothing but precipitation and solvent washing. These features make the molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MINPs) highly promising peptide-binding "artificial antibodies" for chemical and biological applications.

Abstract
A new type of thermosensitive dual-template epitope molecular imprinting polymer was prepared and coated on magnetic carbon nanotubes (MCNTs@D-EMIP) for simultaneous recognition of human serum albumin (HSA) and transferrin (Trf) via the strategies of dual-template epitope imprinting, metal chelation imprinting, and distillation-precipitation polymerization (DPP). C-terminal peptides of HSA and C-terminal peptides of Trf were selected as templates, zinc acrylate and N-isopropylacrylamide were used as functional monomers, and MCNTs@D-EMIP was prepared by the method of DPP. The two types of template epitopes were immobilized by metal chelation and six-membered ring formed with zinc acylate. MCNTs@D-EMIP was prepared in only 30 min, which was much shorter than other polymerization methods. The resultant MCNTs@D-EMIP showed excellent specific recognition ability toward HSA and Trf. The adsorption amounts of MCNTs@D-EMIP for HSA and Trf were 103.67 and 68.48 mg g-1 and the imprinting factors were 2.57 and 2.17, respectively. In addition, MCNTs@D-EMIP displayed a thermosensitive property to realize temperature-controlled recognition and release of target proteins. Furthermore, the results of high-performance liquid chromatography analysis proved that MCNTs@D-EMIP could be applied to specifically recognize two types of targets simultaneously in the biosample. The proposed strategy provided a preparation method for the thermosensitive dual-template epitope imprinting polymer via dual-template imprinting, metal chelation imprinting, and DPP.

Abstract
A dynamic hydrogel that sequentially responds to two independent but interrelated physical and biomolecular signals was reported in this work. Once hit by an external light signal, an immobilized internal molecular signal is activated and freed via photoreaction; and subsequently the freed molecular signal works as a self-programming factor of the hydrogel to induce the dissociation of a biomolecular complex to release protein via hybridization reaction. Notably, pulsatile external light input can be converted to periodical protein output from the hydrogel to regulate cell migration. Thus, this hydrogel holds potential as a self-programming platform for biological and biomedical applications such as controlled release of bioactive substances.

Abstract
Molecular recognition has an important role in numerous living systems. One of the most important molecular recognition methods is molecular imprinting, which allows host compounds to recognize and detect several molecules rapidly, sensitively and selectively. Compared to natural systems, molecular imprinting methods have some important features such as low cost, robustness, high recognition ability and long term durability which allows molecularly imprinted polymers to be used in various biotechnological applications, such as chromatography, drug delivery, nanotechnology, and sensor technology. Sensors are important tools because of their ability to figure out a potentially large number of analytical difficulties in various areas with different macromolecular targets. Proteins, enzymes, nucleic acids, antibodies, viruses and cells are defined as macromolecules that have wide range of functions are very important. Thus, macromolecules detection has gained great attention in concerning the improvement in most of the studies. The applications of macromolecule imprinted sensors will have a spacious exploration according to the low cost, high specificity and stability. In this review, macromolecules for molecularly imprinted sensor applications are structured according to the definition of molecular imprinting methods, developments in macromolecular imprinting methods, macromolecular imprinted sensors, and conclusions and future perspectives. This chapter follows the latter strategies and focuses on the applications of macromolecular imprinted sensors. This allows discussion on how sensor strategy is brought to solve the macromolecules imprinting.

Abstract
One of the mechanisms responsible for cancer-induced increased blood supply in malignant neoplasms is the overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Several antibodies for VEGF targeting have been produced for both imaging and therapy. Molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles, nanoMIPs, however, offer significant advantages over antibodies, in particular in relation to improved stability, speed of design, cost and control over functionalization. In the present study, the successful production of nanoMIPs against human VEGF is reported for the first time. NanoMIPs were coupled with quantum dots (QDs) for cancer imaging. The composite nanoparticles exhibited specific homing toward human melanoma cell xenografts, overexpressing hVEGF, in zebrafish embryos. No evidence of this accumulation was observed in control organisms. These results indicate that nanoMIPs are promising materials which can be considered for advancing molecular oncological research, in particular when antibodies are less desirable due to their immunogenicity or long production time.

Abstract
A surface directly connects the bulk of a material to its surroundings. The ability to dynamically regulate the surface without affecting the bulk of a material holds great potential for new applications. The purpose of this work was to demonstrate that the surface can be dynamically changed using nanoparticles and oligonucleotides (ODNs) in a reversible and reiterative manner. A dual-functional nanogel was synthesized as the model of nanoparticles using miniemulsion polymerization and click chemistry. The nanogel can not only adsorb drugs for sustained drug release but also bind a surface functionalized with complementary ODNs. Importantly, hybridization reaction and ODN degradation can drive reversible and reiterative nanogel binding to the surface for dynamic change, which in principle is unlimited. Moreover, nanogel-mediated dynamic change offers the surface with the drug-releasing function for inhibiting the growth of surrounding cells. Because nanogels can be replaced by any functional nanoparticles with a diverse array of properties, nanoparticle-programmed surface change constitutes a promising platform for various applications such as drug delivery and stent implantation.

Abstract
Participation of magnetic component in molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) has facilitated enormously the incorporation of these polymeric materials on electrode surfaces allowing the design of electrochemical sensors with very attractive analytical characteristics in terms of simplicity, reproducibility, low fabrication cost, high sensitivity and selectivity and rapid assay time. The magnetically susceptible resultant MIPs (MMIPs) allowed a simple and fast elution of the template molecules from MMIPs, are easily and faster collected without filtration, centrifugation or other complex operations and are also faster assembled and removed from the electrode surface by simply using an external magnetic field. A wide range of different (nano)materials such as gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), graphene oxide, single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs and MWCNTs) as well as different electrode modifiers (ionic liquids (ILs) and surfactants/dispersants) have been incorporated into the MMIPs to improve the analytical performance of the resulting electrochemical sensors which have demonstrated great promise for determination of relevant analytes in environmental, food and clinical analyses.

Abstract
Molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs) are tailor-made materials with selective recognition to the target. The goals of this study were to prepare cholesterol imprinted polymeric nanospheres (CIPNs) and optimize their adsorption parameters and also to use CIPNs for adsorption of cholesterol (CHO), which is an important physiological biomacromolecule, from gastrointestinal mimicking solution (GIMS). Pre-polymerization complex was prepared using CHO as template and N-methacryloylamido-(l)-phenylalanine methyl ester (MAPA). This complex was polymerized with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA). CHO was removed by MeOH and tetrahydrofuran (THF). Adsorption studies were performed after chacterization studies to interrogate the effects of time, initial concentration, temperature, and ionic strength on CHO adsorption onto CIPNs. Maximum adsorption capacity (714.17mg/g) was higher than that of cholesterol imprinted polymers in literature. Pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm fitted best with the adsorption onto CIPNs. 86% of adsorbed cholesterol was desorbed with MeOH:HAc (80:20, v/v) and CIPNs were used in adsorption-desorption cycle for 5-times with a decrease as 12.28%. CHO analogues; estron, estradiol, testosterone, and progesterone were used for competitive adsorption. The relative selectivity coefficients of CINPs for cholesterol/estron and cholesterol/testosterone were 3.84 and 10.47 times greater than the one of non-imprinted polymeric nanospheres (NIPNs) in methanol, respectively.

Abstract
Considering outburst of various infectious diseases globally, nanoparticle assisted targeted drug delivery has emerged as a promising strategy that can enhance the therapeutic efficacy and minimize the undesirable side effects of an antimicrobial agents. Molecular imprinting is a newly developed strategy that can synthesize a drug carrier with highly stable ligand-like 'cavity', may serve as a new platform of ligand-free targeted drug delivery systems. In this study, we use the amphiphilic lipopolysaccharides, derived from Pseudomonas aeruginosa as imprinting template and obtained an evenly distributed sub-40 nm polymeric nanoparticles by using inverse emulsion method. These molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MIPNPs) showed specific binding to the lipopolysaccharide as determined by fluorescence polarization and microscale thermophoresis. MIPNPs showed selective recognition of target bacteria as detected by flow cytometry. Additionally, MIPNPs exhibited the in vivo targeting capabilities in both the keratitis model and meningitis model. Moreover, the photosensitizer methylene blue-loaded MIPNPs presented significantly strong inhibition of bacterial Growth, compared to non-imprinted controls for in vitro model of the photodynamic therapy. Our study shows an attempt to design a magic bullet by molecular imprinting that may provide a novel approach to generate synthetic carrier for targeting pathogen and treatment for a variety of infectious human diseases.
