Star Polymer Nanomedicines─Challenges and Future Perspectives

TL;DR: A review on the translation of star polymer nanoparticles toward therapeutic application can be found in this paper , where the authors discuss all the important potential translational breakthroughs in the field as well as offer a perspective on how the addition of cutting-edge in vitro and in vivo models could provide us with the tools for the successful future clinical translation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomimetic polymers responsive to a biological signaling molecule: Nitric oxide (NO) triggered reversible self-assembly of single macromolecular chains into nanoparticles.

TL;DR: The capability of smart response to the extracellular or intracellular microenvironments, such as overexpressed enzymes, and glutathione and pH differences, has become a necessary character of the anticancer drug delivery nanovehicles in recent years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymeric micelles with anti-virulence activity against Candida albicans in a single- and dual-species biofilm

TL;DR: In this article, polymeric micelles comprised of di-block polymer, poly-(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate and poly 2-(N,N-diethylamino) ethyl methacarrylate polymer, P(PEGMA-b-DEAEMA), were observed to exhibit remarkable inhibitory effects on hyphal growth of Candida albicans and C. tropicalis, thus preventing biofilm formation and removing existing biofilms.

Reversible addition−fragmentation chain transfer polymerization initiated with ultraviolet radiation

TL;DR: In this article, 1-phenylethyl phenyldithioacetate (1-PEPDTA) was used to polymerize styrene under a source of ultraviolet radiation in the presence of certain thiocarbonylthio compounds.

Direct synthesis of pyridyl disulfide-terminated polymers by RAFT polymerization

TL;DR: In this article, a trithiocarbonate RAFT agent was modified with a pyridyl disulfide group and used in the direct synthesis of endgroup polymers.
