Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) hold great clinical value as promising diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic agents. This field, however, is hindered by technical challenges in the isolation of EVs from biofluids for downstream purposes. We here report a rapid (<30 min) isolation method for EV extraction from diverse biofluids with yield and purity exceeding 90%. These high performances are ascribed to the reversible zwitterionic coordination between the phosphatidylcholine (PC) on EV membranes and the "PC-inverse" choline phosphate (CP) decorated on magnetic beads. By coupling this isolation method with proteomics, a set of differentially expressed proteins on the EVs were identified as potential colon cancer biomarkers. Last, we demonstrated that the EVs in various clinically relevant biofluids, such as blood serum, urine, and saliva, can also be isolated efficiently, outperforming the conventional approaches in terms of simplicity, speed, yield, and purity.

Abstract
The development of injectable hydrogels with good biocompatibility, self-healing, and superior hemostatic properties is highly desirable in emergency and clinical applications. Herein, we report an in situ injectable and self-healing hemostatic hydrogel based on choline phosphoryl functionalized chitosan (CS-g-CP) and oxidized dextran (ODex). The CP groups were hypothesized to accelerate hemostasis by facilitating erythrocyte adhesion and aggregation. Our results reveal that the CS-g-CP/ODex hydrogels exhibit enhanced blood clotting and erythrocyte adhesion/aggregation capacities compared to those of the CS/ODex hydrogels. The CS-g-CP50/ODex75 hydrogel presents rapid gelation time, good mechanical strength and tissue adhesiveness, satisfactory bursting pressure, and favorable biocompatibility. The hemostatic ability of the CS-g-CP50/ODex75 hydrogel was significantly improved compared to that of the CS/ODex hydrogel and commercial fibrin sealant in the rat tail amputation and liver/spleen injury models. Our study highlights the positive and synergistic effects of CP groups on hemostasis and strongly supports the CS-g-CP50/ODex75 hydrogel as a promising adhesive for hemorrhage control.

Abstract
Zwitterionic methacrylate polymers with either choline phosphate (CP) (poly(MCP)) or phosphorylcholine (PC) (poly(MPC)) side groups were analyzed to characterize the bound hydration water molecules as nonfreezing water (NFW), intermediate water (IW), or free water (FW). This characterization was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of polymer/water systems, and the enthalpy changes of cold crystallization and melting were determined. The electron pair orientation of CP is opposite to that of PC, and the former binds the alkyl terminal groups at the phosphate esters. The numbers of NFW and IW molecules per monomer unit of poly(MCP) with an isopropyl terminal group were estimated to be 10.7 and 11.3 mol/mol, respectively, which were slightly greater than those of the poly(MCP) bearing an ethyl terminal group. More NFW and IW molecules hydrated the phosphobetaine polyzwitterions, poly(MCP) and poly(MPC), compared with carboxybetaine and sulfobetaine polymers. Moreover, the hydration states of polyelectrolytes were compared with the zwitterionic polymers. Finally, we discuss the relationship between the amount of hydration water and bio-inert properties.

Abstract
Among zwitterionic structures, the choline phosphate (CP) group is uniquely attractive for its ability to access novel chemical compositions that embed functional groups directly into the zwitterionic moiety. This paper describes the attachment of fluorinated alkyl groups to CP moieties, yielding zwitterionic monomers 1 and 2 that proved amenable to controlled free radical polymerization and the production of a new set of CP-containing fluorinated polymers and copolymers with phosphorylcholine (PC) zwitterions. This combination of fluorinated hydrocarbons and zwitterions affords novel, water-soluble polymeric amphiphiles that we have examined at fluid interfaces, as coatings, in cell culture, and in magnetic resonance imaging.

Abstract
Phosphorus is a ubiquitous and one of the most common elements found in living organisms. Almost all molecules containing phosphorus in our body exist as analogs of phosphate salts or phosphoesters. Their functions are versatile and important, being responsible for forming the genetic code, cell membrane, and mineral components of hard tissue. Several materials inspired from these phosphorus-containing biomolecules have been recently developed. These materials have shown unique properties at the biointerface, such as nonfouling ability, blood compatibility, lubricity, mineralization induction capability, and bone affinity. Several unfavorable events occur at the interface of materials and living organisms because most of these materials have not been designed while taking host responses into account. These unfavorable events are directly linked to reducing functions and shorten the usable periods of medical devices. Biomimetic phosphorus-containing polymers can improve the reliability of materials in biological systems. In addition, phosphorus-containing biomimetic polymers are useful not only for improving the biocompatibility of material surfaces but also for adding new functions due to the flexibility in molecular design. In this review, we describe the recent advances in the control of biointerfacial phenomena with phosphorus-containing polymers. We especially focus on zwitterioninc phosphorylcholine polymers and polyphosphoesters.

Abstract
Biodegradable polycaprolactone (PCL) has been widely applied as a scaffold material in tissue engineering. However, the PCL surface is hydrophobic and adsorbs nonspecific proteins. Some traditional antifouling modifications using hydrophilic moieties have been successful but inhibit cell adhesion, which is not ideal for tissue engineering. The PCL surface is modified with bioinspired zwitterionic poly[2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl choline phosphate] (PMCP) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization to improve cell adhesion through the unique interaction between choline phosphate (CP, on PMCP) and phosphate choline (PC, on cell membranes). The hydrophilicity of the PCL surface is significantly enhanced after surface modification. The PCL-PMCP surface reduces nonspecific protein adsorption (e.g., up to 91.7% for bovine serum albumin) due to the zwitterionic property of PMCP. The adhesion and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on the modified surface is remarkably improved, and osteogenic differentiation signs are detected, even without adding any osteogenesis-inducing supplements. Moreover, the PCL-PMCP films are more stable at the early stage of degradation. Therefore, the PMCP-functionalized PCL surface promotes cell adhesion and osteogenic differentiation, with an antifouling background, and exhibits great potential in tissue engineering.
