Abstract
To create functional tissue engineering scaffolds, biomaterials should mimic the native extracellular matrix of the tissue to be regenerated. Simultaneously, the survival and functionality of stem cells should also be enhanced to promote tissue organisation and repair. Hydrogels, but in particular, peptide hydrogels, are an emerging class of biocompatible scaffolds which act as promising self-assembling biomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative therapies, ranging from articular cartilage regeneration at joint defects, to regenerative spinal cord injury following trauma. To enhance hydrogel biocompatibility, it has become imperative to consider the native microenvironment of the site for regeneration, where the use of functionalised hydrogels with extracellular matrix adhesion motifs has become a novel, emerging theme. In this review, we will introduce hydrogels in the context of tissue engineering, provide insight into the complexity of the extracellular matrix, investigate specific adhesion motifs that have been used to generate functionalised hydrogels and outline their potential applications in a regenerative medicine setting. It is anticipated that by conducting this review, we will provide greater insight into functionalised hydrogels, which may help translate their use towards therapeutic roles.

Abstract
A highly water-soluble rosin-based surfactant (C14-MPA-Na) was synthesized. Novel temperature-responsive supramolecular hydrogels were further prepared using C14-MPA-Na. The microstructure and the mechanical properties of the hydrogels were investigated. Unexpectedly, instead of the long one-dimensional structure, a new kind of twisted semicircular aggregate was formed in the hydrogels, which was rarely reported. Besides, the hydrogels possessed excellent shear-recovery properties. Upon heating to 40 °C, the hydrogels transformed into viscoelastic solutions, which were constructed by worm-like micelles. By adjusting the temperature, the hydrogels and the viscoelastic solutions could be freely transformed. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to further explore the possible self-assembly mechanism of C14-MPA-Na. The curved alkane chain which partially overlapped with rosin's rigid skeleton became stretched when heated to 40 °C. The introduction of the rosin rigid skeleton endowed the supramolecular hydrogels with a novel microstructure and contributed to the development of strategies for the utilization of forest resources.

Abstract
The morphology and physicochemical properties of ordered molecular aggregates are closely related to surfactant molecules. Herein, a rosin-based amine oxide surfactant containing a large hydrophobic group (abbreviated R-10-AO) was synthesized from dehydroabietic acid, which is an important derivative of rosin. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) images and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) showed that at a concentration of ∼5 mM, R-10-AO molecules formed flexible nanobelts with a thickness of only 2-3 nm. The width of these nanobelts was 50-150 nm and the length was more than 1 μm. The formation of the stable nanobelts arose from the strong van der Waals forces of the bulky hydrophobic portions of R-10-AO in solution, facilitating the stability of the asymmetrical aggregates. Rheological tests showed that the formed nanobelts were thermodynamically stable. The entanglement of these nanobelts led to significant viscoelasticity of the solutions. The zero-shear viscosity (η0) of the R-10-AO solution reached 10 Pa s at a concentration of 5 mM, which is much greater than that of most wormlike micellar solutions. This work provides the inspirations of preparing aggregates with novel properties using natural products.

Rosin-based chiral wormlike Micelles: Rheological behavior and its application in preparing ultrasmall gold nanoparticles. J Colloid Interface Sci 2020; 579:61-70.

Abstract
Innovations in surfactant structures are a feasible way to prepare unique molecular aggregates with interesting properties. Herein, taking dehydroabietic acid as the starting material, a new amine oxide surfactant, abbreviated as R-8-AO, was synthesized. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) images and circular dichroism (CD) spectra reveal that at suitable concentrations, R-8-AO molecules form rarely discovered right-handed chiral wormlike micelles, which have a cross-sectional diameter of 5-6 nm. The overlap concentration of R-8-AO is approximately 8 mM, above which the wormlike micelles began to entangle in solutions. Due to the strong van der Waals forces between R-8-AO molecules, the scaling law gives an exponent of 7.88, which is higher than the theory predicted value. Gold nanoparticles were synthesized in-situ by irradiating mixed solutions of HAuCl4 and wormlike micelles formed by R-8-AO with UV light. These ultrasmall spherical gold nanoparticles, which are located at the surface of wormlike micelles, have a uniform particle size of 3 ± 1 nm, as observed by TEM. In addition, the gold nanoparticles form a worm-like morphology induced by the wormlike micelles, showing soft-aggregate-directed nanoparticle assembly. This work is first to reveal the effectiveness of preparing ultrasmall gold nanoparticles with new morphological wormlike micelles as soft templates. The resulting organic-inorganic hybrid aggregates are also expected to find applications in catalysis and electronic fields.

Abstract
A novel pH-responsive wormlike micellar viscoelastic solution was constructed by a rosin-based anionic surfactant (Na-MPA-AZO-Na) in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The viscoelasticity, aggregate morphology, and pH-responsiveness of the pH-responsive wormlike micelles have been investigated through the method of rheology and cryogenic-transmission electron microscopy. Its corresponding mechanism has been studied using 1H NMR and 1H-1H 2D NOESY HNMR. The zero-shear viscosity (η0) of the wormlike micellar solution rapidly decreases by 3 orders of magnitude as the pH increases from 5.21 to 9.56. The viscoelastic fluids and water-like solutions can be converted by tuning the pH between 3.62 and 12.00, and the corresponding aggregates also transform between wormlike micelles and spherical micelles. In addition, the wormlike micellar cross-sectional diameter is approximately 10 nm, which is remarkably larger than that of the common wormlike micelles. The phenomenon can be attributed to the large steric volume of the rosin rigid skeleton. When the pH is 12.00, a "pseudo" Gemini surfactant is constructed by Na-MPA-AZO-Na and CTAB through the electrostatic interactions. Wormlike micelles also can be formed with the increasing concentrations. The η0 of the wormlike micellar system shows strong dependence on concentration with an exponent of 9.6 (η0 ∝ C9.6). This work further promotes new applications of forest resources.

Abstract
The rational combination of natural molecules is expected to provide new soft material building blocks. Herein, a rosin-based amino acid surfactant was synthesized using dehydroabietic acid and l-serine as the starting materials (denoted as R-6-Ser). Supramolecular hydrogels were formed when β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was mixed with R-6-Ser at molar ratios of over 0.5:1 and above certain concentrations. The hydrogels were investigated using rheometry, small-angle X-ray scattering, CD spectroscopy, and cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM). The β-CD associated with the isopropyl benzyl group of the dehydroabietic acid unit in R-6-Ser and formed R-6-Ser@β-CD complexes. The complexes and R-6-Ser self-assembled to form elongated right-handed rigid fibers with a diameter of approximately 7-8 nm, which were responsible for the elasticity of the hydrogels. This work demonstrated the feasibility of preparing supramolecular hydrogels from a diterpenoid-based surfactant and β-CD and provides a new means of utilizing the secretions of pine trees.

Abstract
Multiple-responsive supramolecular vesicles have been successfully fabricated by the complexation between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and a pH/photo dual-responsive amphiphile 4-(4-(hexyloxy)phenylazo)benzoate sodium (HPB) with azobenzene and carboxylate groups. When mixing β-CD with HPB to reach a host/guest molar ratio of 1 : 1, the azobenzene group of HPB could be spontaneously included by β-CD molecules. Then, the formed inclusion complexes (HPB@β-CD) could self-assemble into vesicles, which was driven by the hydrophobic interaction of the alkyl chain of HPB and the hydrogen bonds between neighboring β-CDs. The reversible assembly/disassembly of the vesicles could be simply regulated under UV or visible light irradiation. The reversible phase transformation between vesicles and microbelts could also be realized by adjusting the pH values of the sample. Adding both competitive guest molecules (1-adamantane carboxylic acid sodium (ADA)) and α-amylase would result in the phase transformation from vesicles to micelles. Moreover, the vesicles would be destroyed when β-CD was continuously added until the ratio of host/guest reached 2 : 1. Such an interesting quintuple-responsive vesicle system reported here not only has potential applications in various fields such as controlled release or drug delivery, but also provides a reference for the design and construction of multiple responsive systems. A quintuple-responsive vesicle system was successfully fabricated by simply mixing HPB with an equal amount of β-CD.![]()

Abstract
The principle of encapsulation/release of a guest molecule from stimuli responsive hydrogels (SRHs) is mainly realised with pH, temperature or light stimuli. However, only a limited number of redox responsive hydrogels have been investigated so far. We report here the development of a SRH that can release its guest molecule upon a redox stimulus. To obtain this redox hydrogel, we have introduced into the hydrogel the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) stable nitroxide radical, which can be reversibly oxidized into an oxoammonium cation (TEMPO+). Water solubility is provided by the presence of the (oligoethyleneglycol)methacrylate (OEGMA) comonomer. Electrochemical and mechanical characterization showed that those gels exhibit interesting physicochemical properties, making them very promising candidates for practical use in a wide range of applications.

Abstract
A new adamantane-based ionic liquid, (11-(((-adamantane-1-carbonyl)oxy)undecyl)-1-methylimidazol-3-ium bromide (AD-C11im), was synthesized from 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid and observed that it can aggregate into micelles in aqueous solution. A number of experiments were conducted to understand the self-assembly of supra-amphiphiles building block fabricated by β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and adamantane-based ionic liquid at diverse molar ratios. Studies revealed that host–guest interaction between the adamantane group and β-CD occurred and AD-C11im@1β-CD building block formed when same amount β-CD was added. Then the micelles aggregates formed by AD-C11im only turned into spherical vesicles, which was confirmed by AFM, DLS and TEM. Besides, according to the results of AFM, it can be confirmed that the vesicles were monolayer structure. When double amount β-CD was added, both the adamantane group and the hydrophobic chain were encapsulated by β-CD and AD-C11im@2β-CD building block formed. Thus the aggregations changed from vesicles to net-like nanofiber, which was observed by TEM. When the β-CD concentration increased to 40 mM, the formation of light blue hydrogel was observed during the self-assembling process of AD-C11im@2β-CD building block. The self-assembly of supra-amphiphiles building block fabricated by β-CD and AD-C11im at diverse molar ratios was studied. The micelles of AD-C11im turned into monolayer vesicles, net-like nanofibers and hydrogel at different β-CD/AD-C11im system.![]()

Abstract
A novel cationic gemini surfactant (C12NDDA) with a spacer containing naphthalene and amides was successfully synthesized. The assembly of C12NDDA with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was investigated using various techniques including transmission electron microscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), and scanning electron microscopy. Tuning the C12NDDA concentration and the C12NDDA/β-CD molar ratio allowed the production of different assembled aggregate morphologies such as micelles, vesicles, nanowires, nanorods, and hydrogels. Investigation of the inclusion mechanisms of C12NDDA and β-CD by 1H NMR revealed that hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and electrostatic forces play key roles in the assembly process. The antimicrobial activities of the C12NDDA/xβ-CD (x = 0-4) inclusion complexes were tested against Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Salmonella) and Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus), and very low minimum inhibitory concentrations of 0.078-0.31 μg mL-1 were observed. Thus, this newly synthesized gemini surfactant and its inclusion complexes exhibit potential as superior broad-spectrum disinfectants for various biomedical and biotechnological applications.

Abstract
A novel bio-based anionic surfactant containing a large rigid group and a flexible alkyl chain, namely, sodium N-dodecyl-maleimidepimaric carboxylate (C12-MPA-Na), was synthesized from rosin. The molecular structure of C12-MPA-Na was identified using 1H NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy and MS. Despite containing 36 carbon atoms, C12-MPA-Na showed good water solubility at room temperature. Large spherical aggregates with diameters of 100-200 nm were formed by C12-MPA-Na when its concentration was above 0.1 mM, which was slightly higher than the critical micelle concentration (0.078 mM). Annular wormlike micelles were discovered with increasing C12-MPA-Na concentration, and began to change into extremely long threadlike wormlike micelles when the C12-MPA-Na concentration reached approximately 58 mM. The viscoelastic properties of the wormlike micelle solutions were investigated using steady state and oscillatory shear sweep rheological measurements. The zero-shear viscosity (η0) strongly depended on the concentration of C12-MPA-Na, and the scaling exponent was 34.1. Cryo-TEM confirmed the formation of large spherical aggregates and wormlike micelles. 1H-1H 2D nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) was used to detect the molecular interactions of C12-MPA-Na. The results indicated that the alkyl chain of C12-MPA-Na was partially overlapped with its non-planar rigid structure in aqueous solution, and the possible aggregation process for C12-MPA-Na was proposed.

Abstract
A novel photo-responsive anionic surfactant with a dimethylamino-substituted azobenzene located at the end of the hydrophobic chain, 6-(4-dimethylaminoazobenzene-4'-oxy)hexanoate sodium (DAH), has been designed. Through the host-guest interaction in aqueous solution, the trans-DAH could be spontaneously included by using two native α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) molecules. The formed hydrophilic inclusion complex (DAH@2α-CD), however, could act as a gelator to induce the formation of a supramolecular hydrogel, which is driven mainly by hydrogen bonds between neighboring α-CDs and also between the carboxylate in DAH and water. Compared with common hydrogels that consist of networks with fibres or discrete polymer chains, the hydrogel formed by DAH@2α-CD was composed of periodic lamellar structures possessing good shear-thinning behavior and much swollen water layers. The more interesting point for such a hydrogel was its visible-light responsibility for gel-sol reversible phase transition. This originated from the introduction of an electron-donating group (dimethylamino) to azobenzene, which noticeably red-shifted the responsive wavelength for its trans-to-cis isomerization. It was also worth noting that the host-guest interaction between azobenzene in DAH and α-CD significantly improved the photo-transition efficiency from trans to cis forms of azobenzene, which played a critical role in the visible-light responsibility of the hydrogel. This unique visible-light-responsive behavior combined with the inherent thermo-responsive property from α-CD should make the prepared hydrogel find more potential applications in biomedical systems.

Abstract
A cationic surfactant with adamantane as the end group, 1-[11-((adamantane-1-carbonyl)oxy)-undecyl]pyridinium bromide (AP), has been synthesized. Its β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) induced hierarchical self-assembling behaviors in aqueous solution were investigated using transmission or scanning electron microscopy methods and small-angle X-ray scattering measurements. Like conventional single chain surfactants, micelles could be formed by AP itself in dilute solutions. However, the dramatic phase transitions of these micelles occurred when host-guest inclusions between AP and β-CD were sequentially produced at different host/guest molar ratios (R), corresponding to the supramolecules with different chemical structures. The AP micelles could be changed into spherical unilamellar vesicles by adding β-CD to reach an R value of 1 : 1. Such vesicles then evolved into multi-wall nanotubes or hydrogels when the β-CD amount was further increased to obtain an R value of 2 : 1. The unique structural characteristics of these supramolecular aggregates come from their "monolayer-like" walls, which have rarely been reported in the past for CD/surfactant inclusion complexes. The interesting results obtained here not only enrich the β-CD/surfactant aggregation systems, but also provide a novel and facile strategy to tune the morphology and structure of aggregates.
