Nanomaterials, including carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide, metal–organic frameworks,
metal nanoparticles, and porous carbon, play a crucial role as efficient carriers to enhance …

Compartmentalization is a crucial feature of a natural cell, manifested in cell membrane and
inner lumen. Inspired by the cellular structure, multicompartment polymersomes (MCPs) …

A molecular robot, which is a system comprised of one or more molecular machines and
computers, can execute sophisticated tasks in many fields that span from nanomedicine to …

Understanding the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance is critical for the development of new
therapeutics. Traditional methods for testing bacteria are often limited in their efficiency and …

We report a versatile approach for engineering protein capsules by harnessing the
ultrasonication-mediated assembly (sono-assembly) of protein-stabilized emulsions for …

Multicompartment polymersomes (MCPs) refer to polymersomes that not only contain one
single compartment, either in the membrane or in the internal cavity, but also mimic the …

A bio‐inspired membrane made of Pluronic L‐121 is produced around Escherichia coli
thanks to the simple co‐extrusion of bacteria and polymer vesicles. The block copolymer …

Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are microcompartments serving to confine reactions,
allow signaling pathways, or design synthetic cells. Polymer GUVs are composed of …

A major shortcoming associated with the application of enzymes in drug synergism
originates from the lack of site-specific, multifunctional nanomedicine. This study introduces …
