Artificial cells are constructed to imitate natural cells and allow researchers to explore
biological process and the origin of life. The construction methods for artificial cells, through …

In recent years, emulsions stabilized by micro‐or nanoparticles (known as Pickering
emulsions) have attracted much attention. Micro‐or nanoparticles, as the main components …

Advancing the spontaneous bottom-up construction of artificial cells with high organizational
complexity and diverse functionality remains an unresolved issue at the interface between …

Artificial cells have attracted much attention as substitutes for natural cells. There are many
different forms of artificial cells with many different definitions. They can be integral biological …

With the ultimate aim to construct a living cell, bottom-up synthetic biology strives to
reconstitute cellular phenomena in vitro–disentangled from the complex environment of a …

The mechanism of spontaneous assembly of microscale compartments is a central question
for the origin of life, and has technological repercussions in diverse areas such as materials …

The ability to build synthetic cellular populations from the bottom-up provides the
groundwork to realize minimal living tissues comprising single cells which can communicate …

A gene-directed chemical communication pathway between synthetic protocell signaling
transmitters (lipid vesicles) and receivers (proteinosomes) was designed, built and tested …

Although several strategies are now available to produce functional microcompartments
analogous to primitive cell-like structures, little progress has been made in generating …

Integrative colloidosomes with hierarchical structure and advanced function may serve as
biomimetic microreactors to carry out catalytic reactions by compartmentalizing biological …
