Abstract
The potential application of high aspect-ratio nanomaterials motivates the development of the fabrication and modification of lipid nanotubes(LNTs). To date, diverse fabricate processes and elaborate template procedures have produced suitable tubular architectures with definite dimensions and complex structures for expected functions and applications. Herein, we comprehensively summarize the fabrication of LNTs in vitro and discuss the progress made on the micro/nanomaterials fabrication using LNTs as a template, as well as the functions and possible application of a wide range of LNTs as fundamental or derivative material. In addition, the characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages of different fabrication, modification methods, and development prospects of LNTs were briefly summarized.

Abstract
Nanotubes with a single monolayer membrane wall comprised of a synthetic glycolipid and one of two synthetic azobenzene derivatives were assembled. X-ray diffraction, infrared, UV-visible, and circular dichroism spectroscopy clarified the embedding style of the azobenzene derivatives in the membrane wall, revealing that, depending on their different intermolecular hydrogen bond strengths, one azobenzene derivative was individually dispersed whereas the other formed a J-type aggregate. The non-aggregated derivative was insensitive to UV irradiation due to tight fixation by the surrounding glycolipid. In contrast, the aggregated derivative was sensitive to UV irradiation, which induced trans-to-cis isomerization of the derivative and disassembly of the J-type aggregate. Subsequent dissociation of the derivative into the bulk solution resulted in the formation of many nanometer-scale holes in the membrane wall. Although a model protein encapsulated within the nanotubes was slowly released over time from the two open ends of the nanotubes without UV irradiation, exposure to UV irradiation resulted in faster, preferential release of the protein through the holes in the membrane wall. The present findings are expected to facilitate the development not only of efficient means of recovering guest compounds stored within nanotubes but also the development of novel stimuli-responsive capsules in biological and medical fields.

Abstract
This paper reports molecular diffusion behavior in two bolaamphiphile-based organic nanotubes having inner carboxyl groups with different inner dimeters (10 and 20 nm) and wall structures, COOH-ONT10nm and COOH-ONT20nm, using imaging fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (imaging FCS). The results were compared to those previously obtained in a similar nanotube with inner amine groups (NH2-ONT10nm). COOH-ONT10nm, as with NH2-ONT10nm, were formed from a rolled bolaamphiphile layer incorporating triglycine moieties, whereas COOH-ONT20nm consisted of four stacks of triglycine-free bolaamphiphile layers. Imaging FCS measurements were carried out for anionic sulforhodamine B (SRB), zwitterionic/cationic rhodamine B (RB), and cationic rhodamine-123 (R123) diffusing within ONTs (1-9 μm long) at different pH (3.4-8.4) and ionic strengths (1.6-500 mM). Diffusion coefficients (D) of these dyes in the ONTs were very small (0.01-0.1 μm2/s), reflecting the significant contributions of molecule-nanotube interactions to diffusion. The D of SRB was larger at higher pH and ionic strength, indicating the essential role of electrostatic repulsion that was enhanced by the deprotonation of the inner carboxyl groups. Importantly, the D of SRB was virtually independent of nanotube inner diameter and wall structure, indicating the diffusion of the hydrophilic molecule was controlled by short time scale adsorption/desorption processes onto the inner surface. In contrast, pH effects on D were less clear for relatively hydrophobic R123 and RB, suggesting the significant contributions of non-Coulombic interactions. Interestingly, the diffusion of these molecules in COOH-ONT20nm was slower than in COOH-ONT10nm. Slower diffusion in COOH-ONT20nm was attributable to relatively efficient partitioning of the hydrophobic dyes into the bolaamphiphile layers, which was reduced in COOH-ONT10nm due to the stabilization of its layer by polyglycine-II-type hydrogen bonding networks. These results show that, by tuning the bolaamphiphile structures and their intermolecular interactions, unique environments can be created within the nanospaces for enhanced molecular separations and reactions.

Abstract
Self-assembled organic nanotubes made of single or multiple molecular components can be classified into soft-matter nanotubes (SMNTs) by contrast with hard-matter nanotubes, such as carbon and other inorganic nanotubes. To date, diverse self-assembly processes and elaborate template procedures using rationally designed organic molecules have produced suitable tubular architectures with definite dimensions, structural complexity, and hierarchy for expected functions and applications. Herein, we comprehensively discuss every functions and possible applications of a wide range of SMNTs as bulk materials or single components. This Review highlights valuable contributions mainly in the past decade. Fifteen different families of SMNTs are discussed from the viewpoints of chemical, physical, biological, and medical applications, as well as action fields (e.g., interior, wall, exterior, whole structure, and ensemble of nanotubes). Chemical applications of the SMNTs are associated with encapsulating materials and sensors. SMNTs also behave, while sometimes undergoing morphological transformation, as a catalyst, template, liquid crystal, hydro-/organogel, superhydrophobic surface, and micron size engine. Physical functions pertain to ferro-/piezoelectricity and energy migration/storage, leading to the applications to electrodes or supercapacitors, and mechanical reinforcement. Biological functions involve artificial chaperone, transmembrane transport, nanochannels, and channel reactors. Finally, medical functions range over drug delivery, nonviral gene transfer vector, and virus trap.

Abstract
Creation of hollow, one-dimensional nanomaterials has gained great recent attention in the chemical and material sciences. In a study aimed at discovering new functional materials of this type, we observed that an amphiphilic diacetylene (DA) derivative, containing an azobenzene moiety and an oligo-ethylene group, self-assembles to form nanotubes and undergoes photopolymerization to form hollow polydiacetylene (PDA) nanotubes with a uniform wall thickness and diameter. The azobenzene-PDA nanotubes are photoresponsive in that on-and-off UV-irradiation leads to a reversible morphological change between straight and bent forms in association with E-Z photoisomerization of the azobenzene group. Owing to the UV-induced structural change feature, the new DA and PDA nanotubes serve as a controlled release material. Accordingly, fluorescent rhodamine B encapsulated inside the nanotubes are effectively released by using repeated on-off UV irradiation. Furthermore, photo-release of rhodamine B was shown to occur in an artemia (brine shrimp).

Abstract
A facile route to prepare nanotubes from rod-like mesogens dissolved in typical organic solvents is reported. For selected types of chiral rod-like molecules, nanotubes were formed from both enantiomers and racemic mixtures by slow evaporation from solution, regardless of the solvent, concentration or deposition type. The obtained supramolecular assemblies were studied using AFM, TEM and SEM techniques, and other experimental techniques (IR, UV-Vis spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction) were also applied. The difference in the surface tension at opposite crystallite surfaces is suggested as a possible mechanism for nanotube nucleation. We propose a quite new rolling-up mechanism related to the surface tension difference at opposite crystallite surfaces.

Abstract
The diffusion behavior of fluorescent molecules within bolaamphiphile-based organic nanotubes (ONTs) was systematically investigated using imaging fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (imaging FCS). Anionic sulforhodamine B, zwitterionic/cationic rhodamine B, or cationic rhodamine 123 was loaded into ONTs having cylindrical hollow structures (ca. 10 nm in inner diameter) with amine and glucose groups on the inner and outer surfaces, respectively. Wide-field fluorescence video microscopy was used to acquire imaging FCS data for dye-doped ONTs in aqueous solutions of different ionic strengths (1-500 mM) at different pH (3.4-8.4). The diffusion behavior of these dyes was discussed on the basis of their apparent diffusion coefficients ( D) that were determined by autocorrelating the time transient of fluorescence intensity at each pixel on an ONT. Molecular diffusion in the ONTs was significantly slowed by the molecule-nanotube interactions, as shown by the very small D (10-1 to 10-2 μm2/s). The pH dependence of D revealed that dye diffusion was basically controlled by electrostatic interactions associated with the protonation of the amine groups on the ONT inner surface. The pH-dependent change in D was observed over a wide pH range, possibly because of electrostatically induced variations in the p Ka of the densely packed ammonium ions on the ONT inner surface. On the other hand, the influence of ionic strength on D was relatively unclear, suggesting the involvement of non-Coulombic interactions with the ONTs in molecular diffusion. Importantly, individual ONTs of different lengths (1-5 μm) afforded similar diffusion coefficients for each type of dye at each solution condition, implying that the properties of the ONTs were uniform in terms of solute loading and release. These results highlight the characteristics of the molecular diffusion behavior within the ONTs and will help in the design of ONTs better suited for use as drug vehicles and contaminant adsorbents.

Abstract
Based on ricinoleic acid, two asymmetric bolaamphiphiles with unsymmetrical hydrophobic skeletons and two different hydrophilic head groups were designed and synthesized. The first bola compound had acetylcholine (ACh) and maleimide (MAL) head groups while the second was derived from the first bolaamphiphile by thiol-ene conjugation of its maleimide moiety with l-glutathione and possessed ACh and l-glutathione-MAL head groups. Both synthetic bolaamphiphiles were characterized by common spectroscopic methods. The asymmetric bola compound with ACh and MAL head groups was investigated for its ability to self-aggregate into nanoparticles and showed to form in aqueous media nano-sized vesicles that were stable, positively charged and had symmetrical monolayer membrane with antiparallel packing. These vesicles prepared with or without membrane stabilizers such as cholesterol (CHOL) and cholesteryl hemisuccinate (CHEMS) were able to encapsulate carboxyfluorescein (CF), a water soluble and self-quenching marker and particularly those without additives were more CF encapsulating. The synthesis of bolaamphiphile with ACh-l-glutathione-MAL head groups gives evidence that the bola with ACh and MAL head groups can be utilized as a precursor of a plethora of asymmetric bolas.

Abstract
Lipid nanotubes are the preferred structures for many applications, especially biological ones, and thus have attracted much interest recently. However, there is still a significant need for developing more lipid nanotubes that are reversibly controllable to improve their functionality and usability. Here, we presented a two-way reversible morphology control of the nanotubes formed by the recently designed molecule AQUA (C25H29NO4). Because of its special design, the AQUA has both pH-sensitive and redox-active characters provided by the carboxylic acid and anthraquinone groups. Upon chemical reduction, the nanotubes turned into thinner ribbons, and this structural transformation was significantly reversible. The reduction of the AQUA nanotubes also switched the nanotubes from electrically conductive to insulative. Nanotube morphology can additionally be altered by decreasing the pH below the pKa value of the AQUA, at ∼4.9. Decreasing the pH caused the gradual unfolding of the nanotubes, and the interlayer distance in the nanotube's walls increased. This morphological change was fast and reversible at a wide pH range, including the physiological pH. Thus, the molecular design of the AQUA allowed for an unprecedented two-way and reversible morphology control with both redox and pH effects. These unique features make AQUA a very promising candidate for many applications, ranging from electronics to controlled drug delivery.

Abstract
Organic nanotubes form in aqueous solution near physiological pH by self-assembly of lithocholic acid (LCA) with inner diameters of 20-40nm. The encapsulation of enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) and resultant confinement effect for eGFP within these nanotubes is studied via confocal microscopy. Timed release rate studies of eGFP encapsulated in LCA nanotubes and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) indicate that the diffusive transport of eGFP out of and/or within the nanotubes is very slow, in contrast to the rapid introduction of eGFP into the nanotubes. By encapsulating two fluorescent proteins in LCA nanotubes, eGFP and mCherry, as a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) pair, the FRET efficiencies are determined using FRET imaging microscopy at three different protein concentrations with a fixed donor-to-acceptor ratio of 1:1. Förster theory reveals that the proteins are spatially separated by 4.8-7.2nm in distance inside these nanotubes. The biomimetic nanochannels of LCA nanotubes not only afford a confining effect on eGFP that results in enhanced chemical and thermal stability under conditions of high denaturant concentration and temperature, but also function as protein concentrators for enriching protein in the nanochannels from a diluted protein solution by up to two orders of magnitude.

Abstract
A series of bolaform supra-amphilphiles with different symmetries were fabricated through dynamic benzoic imine bond formation. The pH dependence of imine formations of these supra-amphiphiles were characterazied. We found that the extent of the imine formation of these supra-amphiphies were different. The supra-amphiphiles with a poorer symmetry always exhibited a lower imine formation at a given pH. Therefore, the varied extent of imine bond formation indicate the different aggregations of these supra-amphilphiles, which are controlled by the molecular symmetry of the supra-amphiphiles.

Abstract
A method to control the release of the anti-cancer drug doxorubicin (Dox) from cylindrical nanocapsules, known as organic nanotubes (ONTs), is reported. Co-assembly of a tube-forming glycolipid and its hydrophobized analogue yield novel ONTs with both -COOH and hydrophobic benzyloxycarbonyl groups localized on cylindrical nanochannels. The hydrophobicity of the ONTs nanochannels is easily tunable by adjusting the mixing ratio of the two glycolipids in the co-assembly process. The resultant biologically stable ONTs are able to capture Dox with high efficiency into the cylindrical nanochannels via ion complexation between cationic Dox and anionic -COO(-) , and the release of Dox from hybrid ONTs is effectively controlled by tuning the electrostatic interaction and the hydrophobicity. This controlled release by tuning the hydrophobicity of the ONTs' nanochannels greatly reduces the cytotoxicity of Dox@ONTs for HeLa cells.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive organic tubes are an attractive supramolecular assembly which has potential applications as a controlled release vehicle. We synthesize a smart organic tube by the coassembly of lithocholic acid (LCA) and taurolithocholic acid (TLCA) in aqueous solution. The coassembled LCA/TLCA tubes can be longitudinally unzipped into flat sheets by capillary force after being dehydrated on substrates. Consequently, the encapsulated guest molecules are released from the unzipping tubes. After the release of guest molecules, the flat sheets can be zipped back into hollow tubes upon hydration with aqueous solution. The zipping/unzipping LCA/TLCA tubes provide a new type of delivery vehicles, which may have potential for surface decontaminations.

Abstract
Transportation, release behavior, and stability of a green fluorescent protein (GFP, 3x4 nm) in self-assembled organic nanotubes with three different inner diameters (10, 20, and 80 nm) have been studied in terms of novel nanocontainers. Selective immobilization of a fluorescent acceptor dye on the inner surface enabled us to not only visualize the transportation of GFP in the nanochannels but to also detect release of the encapsulated GFP to the bulk solution in real time, based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Obtained diffusion constants and release rates of GFP markedly decreased as the inner diameter of the nanotubes was decreased. An endo-sensing procedure also clarified the dependence of the thermal and chemical stabilities of the GFP on the inner diameters. The GFP encapsulated in the 10 nm nanochannel showed strong resistance to heat and to a denaturant. On the other hand, the 20 nm nanochannel accelerated the denaturation of the encapsulated GFP compared with the rate of denaturation of the free GFP in bulk and the encapsulated GFP in the 80 nm nanochannels. The confinement effect based on rational fitting of the inner diameter to the size of GFP allowed us to store it stably and without denaturation under high temperatures and high denaturant concentrations.

Abstract
The search for efficient low-molecular-weight gelators (LMWGs) with possible structure-activity correlation is on the rise. The present work reports a novel set of amphiphilic dipeptide-based carboxylic acids capable of efficiently gelating organic solvents. More interestingly, their sodium salts showed enhanced efficiency in organogelation with the additional ability to gelate water. Electrostatic interactions present in the aggregation of the sodium carboxylates of amphiphilic dipeptides seem to be important because some of the nongelator carboxylic acids turned out to be excellent gelators upon salt formation. The combinations and sequence of the amino acids in the dipeptide moiety were systematically altered to understand the collective importance of the nonpolar aliphatic/aromatic substitution in amino acids in the self-assembling behavior of amphiphiles. Almost a 20-fold enhancement in the gelation ability was observed on reversing the sequence of the amino acid residues, and in some cases, nongelators were transformed to efficient gelators. Spectroscopic and microscopic studies of these thermoreversible organo/hydrogels revealed that balanced participation of the noncovalent interactions including hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions are crucial for organo/hydrogelation. These dipeptides selectively gelate organic solvents from their mixtures with water, and the xerogels prepared from these organogels showed time-dependent adsorption of dyes such as crystal violet. The most remarkable feature of these gelators is the pH responsiveness, which was aptly utilized for the pH-dependent phase-selective gelation of either solvent in a biphasic mixture of oil and water. The dissimilar gelation ability of the acid and its salt originating from the pH responsiveness of the amphiphilic dipeptide was employed in the instant removal of large amounts of dyes for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The mechanical behavior of self-assembled lipid tubules is an important property which determines their suitability for technological applications. We study the instability of multibilayer lipid tubules (with wall thickness t and external radius R(ext)) beyond elastic response under local radial atomic force microscopy indentations. A discontinuity in force-distance curves associated with the buckling instability of lipid tubules is observed. The critical force at which lipid tubules undergo a buckling transition linearly scales as t/R(ext). In addition, a reduced critical buckling force is found to extend a distance of approximately 1 microm from the end of lipid tubules.
