Bright and colorful fluorescent polymers are ideal materials for a variety of applications. Although could be made by physical doping or chemical binding units, it is great challenge to get highly emissive with single fluorophore. Here the development general facile method synthesize ultrabright using twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) probe reported. By incorporating polymerizable, fluorescent, environmental sensitive TICT probe, series acrylic (emission from 481 543 nm) almost 100% fluorescence quantum yields prepared. Like solvatochromic effect, functional groups within side chains (including alkyl chain, tetrahydrofurfuryl group, hydroxyl group) provide varied polarity incorporated fluorophore, resulting in polymeric materials. Benefiting excellent photophysical properties, show potential encryption, cultural relics protection, white light-emitting diode bulb making, fingerprint identification.

DNA-based hydrogels stand out for bone regeneration due to their exceptional biocompatibility and programmability. These facilitate the formation of spatial structures through bulk hydrogel fabricating, microsphere formatting, 3D printing. Furthermore, microenvironment can be finely tuned by leveraging degradation products, nanostructure, targeting, delivery capabilities inherent materials. In this review, we underscore advantages hydrogels, detailing composition, gelation techniques, structure optimization. We then delineate three critical elements in promotion using hydrogels: (i) osteogenesis driven phosphate ions, plasmids, oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) that enhance mineralization promote gene protein expression; (ii) vascularization facilitated tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs) aptamers, which boosts expression targeted release; (iii) immunomodulation achieved loaded factors, TDNs, bound ions stimulate macrophage polarization exhibit antibacterial properties. With these properties, used construct organoids, providing an innovative tool disease modeling therapeutic applications tissue engineering. Finally, discuss current challenges future prospects, emphasizing potential impacts regenerative medicine.

Comprehensive Summary Artificial cell wall (ACW) referring to active functional cellular nano‐coatings is capable of providing more cell‐shell synergic and cooperative properties than conventional single nanoencapsulation (SCNE). With the development SCNE, issues cytocompatibility, degradability, etc ., have already been improved successively. However, further emphasis on cooperativity between itself its shell still missing paying attention functions hybrids. Recent research proved that construction nano‐coating cells not only needs satisfy functionalization cells, but also necessary empower interact with other environments. This indicates SCNEs are tending be “active” participate in metabolic process gradually develop stage ACWs. review provided a reasonable description artificial wall, realization this concept requires cooperativity, self‐adaption fluxionality.

The regulation of oxidative stress in living cells is essential for maintaining cellular processes and signal transduction. However, developing straightforward strategies to activate stress-sensitive membrane channels situ poses significant challenges. In this study, we present a chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) system based on conjugated oligomer, oligo(p-phenylenevinylene)-imidazolium (OPV-Im), designed the activation transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) calcium by superoxide anion (O2⋅-) without requiring external light sources. OPV-Im oligomer targeted cell efficiently, leading TRPM2 CRET process subsequent intracellular overload. This cascade resulted mitochondrial damage inhibition autophagy, ultimately inducing apoptosis. Additionally, strategy could be applied selective killing tumor that overexpress ion inhibiting growth three-dimensional (3D) spheroids. Our offers novel approach regulating channel activity compared optogenetics photodynamic therapy.
