Abstract
Self-assembly in living cells represents one versatile strategy for drug delivery; however, it suffers from the limited precision and efficiency. Inspired by viral traits, we here report a cascade targeting-hydrolysis-transformation (THT) assembly of glycosylated peptides in living cells holistically resembling viral infection for efficient cargo delivery and combined tumor therapy. We design a glycosylated peptide via incorporating a β-galactose-serine residue into bola-amphiphilic sequences. Co-assembling of the glycosylated peptide with two counterparts containing irinotecan (IRI) or ligand TSFAEYWNLLSP (PMI) results in formation of the glycosylated co-assemblies SgVEIP, which target cancer cells via β-galactose-galectin-1 association and undergo galactosidase-induced morphological transformation. While GSH-reduction causes release of IRI from the co-assemblies, the PMI moieties release p53 and facilitate cell death via binding with protein MDM2. Cellular experiments show membrane targeting, endo-/lysosome-mediated internalization and in situ formation of nanofibers in cytoplasm by SgVEIP. This cascade THT process enables efficient delivery of IRI and PMI into cancer cells secreting Gal-1 and overexpressing β-galactosidase. In vivo studies illustrate enhanced tumor accumulation and retention of the glycosylated co-assemblies, thereby suppressing tumor growth. Our findings demonstrate an in situ assembly strategy mimicking viral infection, thus providing a new route for drug delivery and cancer therapy in the future.

Abstract
Supramolecular gels, self-assembled from low-molecular-weight gelators (LMWGs), have a long history and a bright future. This review provides an overview of these materials, from their use in lubrication and personal care in the ancient world, through to next-generation technologies. In academic terms, colloid scientists in the 19th and early 20th centuries first understood such gels as being physically assembled as a result of weak interactions, combining a solid-like network having a degree of crystalline order with a highly mobile liquid-like phase. During the 20th century, industrial scientists began using these materials in new applications in the polymer, oil and food industries. The advent of supramolecular chemistry in the late 20th century, with its focus on non-covalent interactions and controlled self-assembly, saw the horizons for these materials shifted significantly beyond their historic rheological applications, expanding their potential. The ability to tune the LMWG chemical structure, manipulate hierarchical assembly, develop multi-component systems, and introduce new types of responsive and interactive behaviour, has been transformative. Furthermore, the dynamics of these materials are increasingly understood, creating metastable gels and transiently-fueled systems. New approaches to shaping and patterning gels are providing a unique opportunity for more sophisticated uses. These supramolecular advances are increasingly underpinning and informing next-generation applications - from drug delivery and regenerative medicine to environmental remediation and sustainable energy. In summary, this article presents a panorama over the field of supramolecular gels, emphasising how both academic and industrial scientists are building on the past, and engaging new fundamental insights and innovative concepts to open up exciting horizons for their future use.

Abstract
Composite hydrogels composed of low-molecular-weight peptide self-assemblies and polysaccharides are gaining great interest as new types of biomaterials. Interactions between polysaccharides and peptide self-assemblies are well reported, but a molecular picture of their impact on the resulting material is still missing. Using the phosphorylated tripeptide precursor Fmoc-FFpY (Fmoc, fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl; F, phenylalanine; Y, tyrosine; p, phosphate group), we investigated how hyaluronic acid (HA) influences the enzyme-assisted self-assembly of Fmoc-FFY generated in situ in the presence of alkaline phosphatase (AP). In the absence of HA, Fmoc-FFY peptides are known to self-assemble in nanometer thick and micrometer long fibers. The presence of HA leads to the spontaneous formation of bundles of several micrometers thickness. Using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP), we find that in the bundles both (i) HA colocalizes with the peptide self-assemblies and (ii) its presence in the bundles is highly dynamic. The attractive interaction between negatively charged peptide fibers and negatively charged HA chains is explained through molecular dynamic simulations that show the existence of hydrogen bonds. Whereas the Fmoc-FFY peptide self-assembly itself is not affected by the presence of HA, this polysaccharide organizes the peptide nanofibers in a nematic phase visible by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The mean distance d between the nanofibers decreases by increasing the HA concentration c, but remains always larger than the diameter of the peptide nanofibers, indicating that they do not interact directly with each other. At a high enough HA concentration, the nematic organization transforms into an ordered 2D hexagonal columnar phase with a nanofiber distance d of 117 Å. Depletion interaction generated by the polysaccharides can explain the experimental power law variation d ∼ c - 1 / 4 and is responsible for the bundle formation and organization. Such behavior is thus suggested for the first time on nano-objects using polymers partially adsorbing on self-assembled peptide nanofibers.

Abstract
Herein, a novel dual-signal sensing system for the determination of β-galactosidase (β-Gal) activity was established, which was based on a dual-emission probe assembled from gold-platinum bimetallic nanoclusters (Au-Pt NCs) and rhodamine B. Under the catalysis of β-Gal, 4-nitrophenyl β-D-galactopyranoside (PNPG) was rapidly hydrolyzed to generate p-nitrophenol (PNP), which has an obvious UV absorption peak at 400 nm. The hydrolyzed product PNP can quench the fluorescence of Au-Pt NCs effectively by inner filter effect (IFE), and PNP had no impact on the fluorescence of rhodamine B, which will change the emission intensity ratio of Au-Pt NCs and rhodamine B. Therefore, the ratiometric fluorescent and colorimetric dual-signal sensor based on Au-Pt NCs and rhodamine B was successfully constructed for sensitive detection of β-Gal activity. The linear detection range for the ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric methods were 2.5-25 U/L and 15-55 U/L with detection limits of 1.2 U/L and 5.2 U/L, respectively. The developed assay method has been used for quantitative detection of β-Gal in spiked serum samples and showed good performance. And the detection platform has high reliability and excellent selectivity, which opens a new avenue for the further application of Au-Pt NCs in chemical sensing and biological analysis.

Abstract
Supramolecular glycopolymers exhibiting inherent dynamicity, tunability, and adaptivity allow us to arrive at a deeper understanding of multivalent carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions and carbohydrate-protein interactions, both being essential to key biological events. The impacts of the carbohydrate segments in these supramolecular glycopolymers towards their structure, dynamics, and function as biomaterials are addressed in this minireview. Bottlenecks and challenges are discussed, and we speculate about possible future directions.

Abstract
Nature uses systems of high complexity coordinated by the precise spatial and temporal control of associated processes, working from the molecular to the macroscopic scale. This living organization is mainly ensured by enzymatic actions. Herein, we review the concept of Localized Enzyme-Assisted Self-Assembly (LEASA). It is defined and presented as a straightforward and insightful strategy to achieve high levels of control in artificial systems. Indeed, the use of immobilized enzymes to drive self-assembly events leads not only to the local formation of supramolecular structures but also to tune their kinetics and their morphologies. The possibility to design tailored complex systems taking advantage of self-assembled networks through their inherent and emergent properties offers new perspectives for the design of novel, more adaptable materials. As a result, some applications have already been developed and are gathered in this review. Finally, challenges and perspectives of LEASA are introduced and discussed.

Abstract
Carbohydrate based low molecular weight gelators have been an intense subject of study over the past decade. The self-assembling systems built from natural products have high significance as biocompatible materials and renewable resources. The versatile structures available from naturally existing monosaccharides have enriched the molecular libraries that can be used for the construction of gelators. The bottom-up strategy in designing low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) for a variety of applications has been adopted by many researchers. Rational design, along with some serendipitous discoveries, has resulted in multiple classes of molecular gelators. This review covers the literature from 2017-2020 on monosaccharide based gelators, including common hexoses, pentoses, along with some disaccharides and their derivatives. The structure-based design and structure to gelation property relationships are reviewed first, followed by stimuli-responsive gelators. The last section focuses on the applications of the sugar based gelators, including their utilization in environmental remediation, ion sensing, catalysis, drug delivery and 3D-printing. We will also review the available LMWGs and their structure correlations to the desired properties for different applications. This review aims at elucidating the design principles and structural features that are pertinent to various applications and hope to provide certain guidelines for researchers that are working at the interface of chemistry, biochemistry, and materials science.

Abstract
Hydrogels are soft materials of the utmost importance in the biomedical and healthcare fields. Two approaches can be considered to obtain such biomaterials: the macromolecular one and the supramolecular one. In the first, the chemical gel is based on crosslinking while in the second the physical hydrogel is stabilized thanks to noncovalent interactions. Recently, new trends rely on smart devices able to modify their physico-chemical properties under stimulation. Such stimuli-responsive systems can react to internal (i.e. pH, redox potential, enzyme, etc.) or external (i.e. magnetic field, light, electric field, etc.) triggers leading to smart drug release and drug delivery systems, 3D scaffolds or biosensors. Even if some stimuli-responsive biomaterials are currently widely studied, other ones represent a real challenge. Among them, electro-responsive hydrogels, especially obtained via supramolecular approach, are under-developped leaving room for improvement. Indeed, currently known macromolecular electro-responsive systems are reaching some limitations related to their chemical composition, physicochemical properties, mechanical strength, processing technologies, etc. In contrast, the interest for supramolecular hydrogels has risen for the past few years suggesting that they may provide new solutions as electro-responsive soft materials. In this short review, we give a recent non exhaustive survey on macromolecular and supramolecular approaches for electro-responsive hydrogels in the biomedical field.
