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. Then, methodologies constructing ACWs were discussed. Finally, applications summarized accompanied by potential outlook given fields. Key Scientists Within recent ten years, fabricating biocompatible surface for cyto‐protection rapidly developed. For example, Rawil F. Fakhrullin Yuri M. Lvov developed ‘layer‐by‐layer’ strategy construct ‘face‐lifting’ micro‐organisms. Afterwards, Choi introduced ‘artificial spore’ which thin tough encapsulations.
