This review aims to provide a systemic analysis of the in vivo, as well as subcellular, fate of
polymeric micelles (PMs), starting from the entry of PMs into the body. Few PMs are able to …

Hydrogels are water-swollen three-dimensional networks made of polymers, proteins, small
molecules or colloids. They constitute a versatile platform for drug delivery because of their …

Self-assembly is the process of association of individual units of a material into highly
arranged/ordered structures/patterns. It imparts unique properties to both inorganic and …

This review discusses one-dimensional supramolecular polymers that form in aqueous
media. First, naturally occurring supramolecular polymers are described, in particular …

Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), an important subfamily of metal–organic frameworks
(MOFs), have been a hot topic as the porous structure nature, high specific surface area and …

CO2 is an ideal trigger for switchable or stimuli-responsive materials because it is benign,
inexpensive, green, abundant, and does not accumulate in the system. Many different CO2 …

Amphiphilic molecules, comprising hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties and the intrinsic
propensity to self‐assemble in aqueous environment, sustain a fascinating spectrum of …

Self-assembly is an essential process in nature and important in the field of material science,
biology and chemistry. Study on self-assembly has lasted for more than 100 years and has …

In recent years, porous bioactive glass micro/nanospheres (PBGSs) have emerged as
attractive biomaterials in various biomedical applications where such engineered particles …

Stimuli‐responsive polymers have received tremendous attention from scientists and
engineers for several decades due to the wide applications of these smart materials in …
