Abstract
Amino acids have emerged as a sustainable source for the design of functional polymers. Besides their wide availability, especially their high degree of biocompatibility makes them appealing for a broad range of applications in the biomedical research field. In addition to these favorable characteristics, the versatility of reactive functional groups in amino acids (i.e., carboxylic acids, amines, thiols, and hydroxyl groups) makes them suitable starting materials for various polymerization approaches, which include step- and chain-growth reactions. This review aims to provide an overview of strategies to incorporate amino acids into polymers. To this end, it focuses on the preparation of polymerizable monomers from amino acids, which yield main chain or side chain-functionalized polymers. Furthermore, postpolymerization modification approaches for polymer side chain functionalization are discussed. Amino acids are presented as a versatile platform for the development of polymers with tailored properties.

Abstract
In this review, molecular brushes and other macromolecular architectures bearing a bottlebrush segment where the main chain is synthesized by ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) mediated by Mo or Ru metal complexes are considered. A brief review of metathesis and ROMP is presented in order to understand the problems and the solutions provided through the years. The synthetic strategies towards bottlebrush copolymers are demonstrated and each one discussed separately. The initiators/catalysts for the synthesis of the backbone with ROMP are discussed. Syntheses of molecular brushes are presented. The most interesting properties of the bottlebrushes are detailed. Finally, the applications studied by different groups are presented.

Abstract
In this study, amphiphilic Janus-type polymers were synthesized via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), multiple vicinal diol formation, and grafting of poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether (mPEG). These amphiphilic polymers formed self-assemblies, which were a mixture of micelles and multimicellar aggregates, in water. By choosing suitable Janus-type polymers and irradiating an aqueous solution of polymers using a sonicator, either small micelles or large multimicellar aggregates were obtained selectively. Hydrophobic substituents controlled the aggregation-disaggregation behavior, leading to the formation of metastable self-assemblies by sonication. The formation of self-assemblies with a uniform size was affected by ultrasonic frequency, rather than power. In vivo optical tumor imaging revealed that the large-size multimicellar aggregates persisting for a long time in blood circulation slowly accumulated in tumor tissues. In contrast, the tumor site was rapidly, clearly visualized using the small-size micelles.
