The lack of efficient therapeutic options for many severe disorders including cancer spurs
demand for improved drug delivery technologies. Nanoscale drug delivery systems based …

Optical and photonic technologies play an important role in human progress. The bending of
light to our will has not only enabled our biological self-discovery, but has also allowed us to …

Polymeric micelles provide a platform that can be carefully tuned for drug delivery. The nano-
scale aggregates form spontaneously in aqueous solution and can be used to overcome …

Stimuli-responsive polymers have gained increasing attention, which is attributed to the
manifold applications they can be used for. Several years' intensive research was invested …

Poor water solubility for many drugs and drug candidates remains a major obstacle to their
development and clinical application. Conventional formulations to improve solubility suffer …

In the paper, we begin by describing polyethylene glycol–poly lactic acid-co-glycolic acid
(PEG–PLGA) which was chosen as a typical model copolymer for the construction of nano …

Polymeric micelles, self‐assembling nano‐constructs of amphiphilic copolymers, are widely
considered as convenient nano‐carriers for a variety of applications, such as diagnostic …

Micelles formed through the self-assembly of block copolymers have been widely used to
encapsulate highly hydrophobic drugs to increase their effective solubility. However, this …

Ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury is a disease process that affects several vital organs. There
is widespread agreement that the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway plays a crucial role in the …

The generation of supramolecular architectures with well-defined structures and
functionalities is recently garnering attraction. Self-assemblage of amphiphilic polymers …
