The material properties of block copolymers can be tuned and potentially improved by introducing noncovalent interactions in place of covalent linkages between polymeric blocks resulting in the formation of supramolecular block copolymers. Such materials combine the microphase separation behavior inherent to block copolymers with the responsiveness of supramolecular materials thereby affording dynamic and reversible materials. This tutorial review covers recent advances in main-chain supramolecular block copolymers and describes the design principles, synthetic approaches, advantages, and potential applications.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20.52

Herein, we describe an unusual pathway for monoolein/water reorganization from a bicontinuous mesophase to a discontinuous reverse micellar assembly, directed by the inclusion of polar macromolecules. This pathway is very different from those reported earlier, wherein the Fd3m phase formed only upon addition of apolar oils. Experiments and molecular dynamics simulations indicate that hydrophilic ternary additives capable of inducing discontinuous phase formation must (i) interact strongly with the monoolein head group and (ii) have a compact molecular architecture. We present a detailed investigation that contrasts a monoolein-water system containing polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrons with one containing their linear analogs. The Fd3m phase forms only on the addition of PAMAM dendrons but not their linear analogs. Thus, the dendritic architecture of PAMAM plays an important role in determining lipid mesophase behavior. Both dendrons and their linear analogs interact strongly with monoolein through their amine groups. However, while linear polymers adsorb and spread on monoolein, dendrons form aggregates that interact with the lipid. Dendrons induce formation of an intermediate reverse hexagonal phase, which subsequently restructures into the Fd3m phase. Finally, we demonstrate that other additives with compact structures that are known to interact with monoolein, such as branched polyethylenimine and polyhedral silsesquioxane cages, also induce the formation of the Fd3m phase.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.798</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kalva, Nagendra</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Parekh, Nimisha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ambade, Ashootosh V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Controlled micellar disassembly of photo- and pH-cleavable linear-dendritic block copolymers</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymer Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">38</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THOMAS GRAHAM HOUSE, SCIENCE PARK, MILTON RD, CAMBRIDGE CB4 0WF, CAMBS, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6826-6835</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;A linear-dendritic block copolymer with both photo-and pH-cleavable linkages at the junction between the hydrophobic dendron and hydrophilic linear polymer was synthesised.

The two segments were connected using click chemistry. The copolymer was found to self-assemble into micelle-like aggregates in dilute aqueous solution. Stimuli-responsive disassembly of the aggregates was studied by monitoring fluorescence emission of the encapsulated hydrophobic dye and dynamic light scattering (DLS).

The photo and pH stimuli were applied separately as well as simultaneously to study the rate of dye release. The synergistic effect of the two stimuli on dye release was demonstrated and the non-cytotoxic nature of the polymer was shown using the MTT assay.

These resonances are highly sensitive to the relative position of atoms in a molecule as well as the crystal packing arrangement. To understand the variation of THz resonances, THz spectra (2-10 THz) of three structural isomers: 2-, 3-, and 4-cyanobenzaldehyde have been studied. THz spectra obtained from Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry of these isomers show that the resonances are distinctly different especially below 5 THz. For understanding the intermolecular interactions due to hydrogen bonds, four molecule cluster simulations of each of the isomers have been carried out using the B3LYP density functional with the 6-31G(d,p) basis set in Gaussian09 software and the compliance constants are obtained. However, to understand the exact reason behind the observed resonances, simulation of each isomer considering the full crystal structure is essential. The crystal structure of each isomer has been determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis for carrying out crystal structure simulations. Density functional theory (DFT) simulations using CRYSTAL14 software, utilizing the hybrid density functional B3LYP, have been carried out to understand the vibrational modes. The bond lengths and bond angles from the optimized structures are compared with the XRD results in terms of root-mean-square-deviation (RMSD) values. Very low RMSD values confirm the overall accuracy of the results. The simulations are able to predict most of the spectral features exhibited by the isomers. The results show that low frequency modes (&amp;lt;3 THz) are mediated through hydrogen bonds and are dominated by intermolecular vibrations.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">29</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.883</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patil, Naganath G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Basutkar, Nitin B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ambade, Ashootosh V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Visible light-triggered disruption of micelles of an amphiphilic block copolymer with BODIPY at the junction</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">51</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17708-17711</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;A visible light-cleavable polymer is synthesised to overcome the limitations of UV-sensitive polymers.

Linear PNIPAM precursor was prepared from an azide-functionalized azobenzene containing ATRP initiator. Two polymers obtained by varying the chain length of the PNIPAM block showed different morphologies and lower critical solution temperature (LCST) values in aqueous solution. Complete change in morphology of the two polymers into large spherical aggregates and nanotubes, respectively, was observed upon heating the micellar solution above LCST. The azobenzene unit was found to undergo trans-cis photoisomerization in the assemblies and caused a change in the microenvironment of an encapsulated hydrophobic dye without any release.

Here, we demonstrate that a large PAMAM dendron (G5: fifth generation) induces the formation a very unusual mesophase with P4332 symmetry. This mesophase had previously been observed in monoolein/water systems only on addition of cytochrome C. The P4332 mesophase can be considered an intermediate phase between the bicontinuous Ia3d and discontinuous micellar mesophases. In this unusual phase, every third rod junction of the Ia3d mesophase is replaced with a spherical micelle. We present a detailed investigation of the phase behaviour of monoolein/water as a function of G5 concentration and temperature. Addition of 1% G5 in 85/15 monoolein/water system induces a transition from the L to Ia3d phase. Further increase in G5 concentration to above 2% induces the formation of the P4332 phase. Thus, incorporation of G5 yields a qualitatively different phase diagram when compared with incorporation of lower generation PAMAM dendrons (G2 – G4) in monoolein/water, where the reverse micellar Fd3m phase forms. PAMAM dendrons of all generations, G2 – G5, bear terminal amine groups that interact with the monoolein head group. The compact molecular architecture of the dendrons and these attractive interactions induce bending of the monoolein bilayer structure. For smaller dendrons, G2 – G4, this results in the formation of the Fd3m phase. However, the large size of the G5 dendron precludes this and a rare intermediate phase between the Ia3d and discontinuous micellar phase, the P4332 mesophase forms instead.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">23</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.833</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dash, Jyotirmayee</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ray, Shaumik</style></author></secondary-authors><tertiary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Devi, Nirmala</style></author></tertiary-authors><subsidiary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Basutkar, Nitin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gonnade, Rajesh G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ambade, Ashootosh V.</style></author></subsidiary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tuning of terahertz resonances of pyridyl benzamide derivatives by electronegative atom substitution</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Compliance constant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Density functional theory</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ph2AP molecule</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terahertz spectroscopy</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">39</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">636–650</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;N-(pyridin-2-yl) benzamide (Ph2AP)-based organic molecules with prominent terahertz (THz) signatures (less than 5 THz) have been synthesized. The THz resonances are tuned by substituting the most electronegative atom, fluorine, at ortho (2F-Ph2AP), meta (3F-Ph2AP), and para (4F-Ph2AP) positions in a Ph2AP molecule. Substitution of fluorine helps in varying the charge distribution of the atoms forming hydrogen bond and hence strength of the hydrogen bond is varied which helps in tuning the THz resonances. The tuning of lower THz resonances of 2F-Ph2AP, 3F-Ph2AP, and 4F-Ph2AP has been explained in terms of compliance constant (relaxed force constant). Four-molecule cluster simulations have been carried out using Gaussian09 software to calculate the compliance constant of the hydrogen bonds. Crystal structure simulations of the above molecules using CRYSTAL14 software have been carried out to understand the origin of THz resonances. It has been observed that THz resonances are shifted to higher frequencies with stronger hydrogen bonds. The study shows that 3F-Ph2AP and 4F-Ph2AP have higher hydrogen bond strength and hence the THz resonances originating due to stretching of intermolecular hydrogen bonds have been shifted to higher frequencies compared to 2F-Ph2AP. The methodology presented here will help in designing novel organic molecules by substituting various electronegative atoms in order to achieve prominent THz resonances.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;0.267&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dash, Jyotirmayee</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ray, Shaumik</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Devi, Nirmala</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Basutkar, Nitin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ambade, Ashootosh V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pesala, Bala</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fine-tuning of Terahertz resonances in hydrogen-bonded organic molecular complexes</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Molecular Structure</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Compliance constant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Natural bond orbital analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Organic molecular complex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terahertz spectroscopy</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1184</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">495-502</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Novel organic molecular complexes have been designed and synthesized to obtain prominent Terahertz (THz) resonances in the low-frequency region. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds give rise to low-frequency THz resonances and hence binary organic molecular complexes of pyridyl alkylamide/benzamide (DAP) and hexyl thymine (C6THY) with multiple strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds (N-H–-O and N-H–-N) are designed and synthesized. THz resonances of the complexes are fine-tuned by varying the number of benzene rings in the DAP moiety (PrDAP + C6THY, PrPhDAP + C6THY and PhDAP + C6THY). DFT simulation studies of two molecule clusters have been carried out to understand the origin of low-frequency THz resonances. It has been observed that the lowest THz resonances (&amp;lt; 2 THz) originate due to translation/rotation of the whole crystal structure and the resonances from 2 to 4 THz are mainly due to intermolecular hydrogen bond bending/stretching vibrations. In order to understand the individual hydrogen bond strengths, compliance constants, which are inverse of the force constants are calculated and Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis has been carried out. Comparison of the experimental THz spectra of different complexes shows that there is a small but tunable variation in THz resonances from one complex to another. Tuning of THz resonances has potential applications in designing THz tags, which can be used in various anti-counterfeiting applications such as currency notes, pharmaceutical tablets.

	A series of dual stimuli-responsive block copolymers comprising temperature-responsive poly(N-vinyl-caprolactam) (PVCL) and biodegradable pH-responsive poly(L-lysine) (PLL) of varying chain length were syn-thesized by a combination of free radical polymerization and ring opening polymerization. The block copolymers formed micelles and vesicles (polymersomes) in response to temperature and pH, respectively, in aqueous so-lution. The nanoassemblies were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering techniques. Encapsulation of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic dyes in the polymersomes was shown. Doxo-rubicin (DOX) was loaded in the polymersomes and its controlled release in response to the two stimuli, inde-pendently and jointly, was studied. The drug was found to be released due to stimuli-induced increased permeability without disassembly of the polymersomes. A significant increase in the cellular uptake of the drug-loaded polymersomes at hyperthermia conditions was demonstrated at 41 degrees C and release of the drug upon localization in lysosomes was observed. Cellular internalization pathway of the polymersomes was investigated by competitive inhibition assay and a combination of endocytic pathways dominated by caveolae-mediated mechanism was found to be operative.&lt;/p&gt;

	A largely bio-based new bisphenol, namely, 4,4 `-((3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methylene)-bis(2-methoxyphenol) (DMBM) was synthesized by the reaction of veratraldehyde with guaiacol. DMBM and varying compositions of DMBM and bisphenol A were polycondensed with bis(4-fluorophenyl) sulfone to afford reasonably high molecular weight film-forming (co)poly(ether sulfone)s possessing built-in methoxyl groups. T10 and Tg values of (co)poly(ether sulfone)s were in the range 382-478 degrees C and 171-187 degrees C, respectively indicating their good thermal stability and the values decreased with increase in mol % incorporation of DMBM. The methoxyl groups present in (co)poly (ether sulfone)s were quantitatively de-blocked resulting in the formation of corresponding polymers possessing pendant catechol moieties and free phenolic hydroxyl groups. By virtue of the presence of these functional moieties, (co)poly(ether sulfone)s are amenable for post-polymerization modifications, and exhibited properties such as antimicrobial (23 mm against Staphylococcus aureus and 18 mm against Escherichia coli)), antioxidant (72 % scavenger of free radicals), adhesive (2.24 MPa lap shear strength) and usefulness as redox-active agent in zinc-ion batteries. These data underscore the promise of DMBM as a versatile monomer of wider utility for the synthesis of functional (co)poly(ether sulfone)s capable of expanding their applicability beyond the conventional ones.&lt;/p&gt;

	Current attempts to replace fossil-derived materials with vegetable oils for polymer production mainly rely on edible oils. This approach raises sustainability concerns due to potential food security risks. This report introduces the first in-depth examination of Thevetia peruviana oil (TPO) epoxidation, an easily accessible nonedible vegetable oil, utilizing diverse acidic ion-exchange resins as catalysts. It is followed by the development of vitrimers based on epoxidized oil (ETPO) with various dicarboxylic acid hardeners. Amberlite IRC120H emerged as the most effective catalyst for the epoxidation of the oil, allowing for repeated catalyst reusability for up to five cycles. An impressive relative oxirane conversion of 98.9% was achieved after optimization. DSC analysis revealed that among the diacids, 2,2'-dithiodibenzoic acid (DTBZ) has the lowest activation energy with ETPO. Additionally, the ETPO-DTBZ-based thermosets displayed exceptional solvent resistance and thermal stability, indicative of a high degree of cross-linked networks within the system. Mechanical analyses revealed that all aliphatic hardeners resulted in soft materials, while DTBZ resulted in thermosets with tensile stress and modulus of 15 and 843 MPa, respectively. Consequently, DTBZ-ETPO thermosets were successfully recycled, repaired, and reshaped with minimal changes in the mechanical properties. The shape memory of the thermosets was also established.&lt;/p&gt;

	Amphiphilic 3-arm star copolymer containing visible light-cleavable BODIPY group and pH-responsive imine bonds at the junction of hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and two poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) arms was synthesized by the combination of ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and click chemistry. The formation and stimuli-responsive disruption of micelles were analyzed using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. Dual stimuli-responsive release of anticancer drugs Doxorubicin (Dox) and Camptothecin (CPT) from the micelles was studied. Micellar assemblies containing Dox conjugated to PEG-BODIPY through imine bonds were prepared and controlled release of Dox in response to visible light and pH was shown. CPT and Dox-loaded star copolymer micelles as well as CPT loaded Dox-conjugated micelles were used in cellular uptake studies on MDA-MB 231 cells, and the synergistic effect of the two stimuli on the release of the two drugs was demonstrated inside the cells. Micellar assemblies also showed excellent bioimaging properties in the cellular uptake studies. [GRAPHICS]&lt;/p&gt;

	In this study, poly(isobornyl acrylate)-b-poly(citronellyl methacrylate) (PIBA-b-PCMA) block copolymers were synthesized with controlled molecular weights and low dispersity using photoinduced electron transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization of isobornyl acrylate (IBA) and citronellyl methacrylate (CMA), both terpene-derived monomers. A series of block copolymers was obtained by varying the chain length of PCMA block. Kinetics study of the polymerization of IBA and CMA using 4-cyano-(((dodecylthio)carbonothioyl)thio)pentanoic acid (CDTPA) as chain transfer agent showed a linear plot of ln[M]0/[M]t vs time indicating first order reaction. Distinct glass transition temperatures were observed for the individual blocks and enhanced thermal stability was seen with increasing PCMA content. Post-polymerization modification of the polymer was demonstrated using thiol-ene reaction with the vinyl group in the pendent citronellyl moiety. Adhesion performance, evaluated through lap shear test on aluminum substrates, showed that the block copolymers achieved peak shear strengths of 1.74 MPa at a 38:62 PIBA:PCMA mole ratio.&lt;/p&gt;

	Organic photoredox catalysts (PCs) based on squaraine dyes are investigated for photoinduced electron transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization under visible-light (lambda max = 485 nm) irradiation in the presence of triethylamine that suppresses self-aggregation of dye and accelerates the polymerization. Several commonly used PCs are also screened, and self-aggregation is found to be reduced with triethylamine, thus providing a simple and effective approach to reduce aggregation of PCs. There is no induction period, and total polymerization time is shorter for squaraine dye PCs than for reported PCs under similar conditions. The photocatalyst system is amenable to polymerization by using different RAFT agents. Methyl methacrylate and a range of functional methacrylates are polymerized with good control over molecular weight and narrow dispersity in a first-order reaction with a random switch ``ON-OFF'' of the light source and even without an inert atmosphere. The mechanism of polymerization without and with requirement of triethylamine is elucidated using control experiments and found to be an oxidative and reductive electron transfer, respectively. A series of diblock and random copolymers of methyl methacrylate with methacrylate monomers are synthesized. Controlled polymerization is also demonstrated using a continuous-flow method and in an aqueous medium.&lt;/p&gt;

	2,2-Bis-(methylol)propionic acid-based second-generation polyester dendron amphiphile (T-D) containing visible light-responsive donor-acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA) as hydrophobic tails is synthesized. Micelles of T-D amphiphile and its mixed micelles of varying compositions with nonresponsive dendron amphiphile containing lauryl groups are prepared in aqueous solution. In transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy analyses, T-D amphiphiles show rice grain-like ellipsoidal micelles as the predominant morphology. Mixed micelles display a composition-dependent morphology gradient such that the morphology changes from rice grain like to mixed to completely spherical with decreasing content of the T-D amphiphile. Complete morphology change to spherical micelles and partial reversal to ellipsoidal micelles, finally leading to ill-defined aggregates, are observed when the T-D amphiphile micelles are subjected to visible light-dark storage photoswitching cycles. Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) analysis of 1 wt.% micellar solution in THF:water (10:90) reveals only a minor change in shape and size upon photoirradiation, and the data could be fitted to spherical or ellipsoidal model. Release of hydrophobic dye from mixed micelles is tuned by the content of the photoresponsive amphiphile. Cellular uptake and visible light-triggered release of hydrophobic drug from mixed micelles are demonstrated using MDA-MB-231 cells, suggesting their applicability for photoresponsive drug delivery.&lt;/p&gt;

	Linear-dendritic block copolymers comprising poly(epsilon-caprolactone) attached to hydrophilic 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid (bis-MPA) ester dendron via a disulfide and containing a defined number of pendent visible-light-responsive donor-acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA) groups are synthesized using click chemistry and postpolymerization modification. Self-assembly in aqueous solution selectively affords rice grain-like ellipsoidal, rod-like, and spherical micelles, governed by the number of DASA groups. Progressive disassembly of the micelles is observed during photoswitching cycles. Release of camptothecin depends on the DASA content under light irradiation and is enhanced by the synergistic effect of two stimuli. Cellular uptake quantified by FACS analysis is demonstrated to be influenced by the shape of the micelles, with ellipsoidal micelles exhibiting higher efficiency than spherical micelles by following clathrin- and caveolae-mediated endocytosis as major pathways for internalization. Both types of micelles were found to maintain the particle size in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at 37 degrees C. Doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded ellipsoidal micelles under photoirradiation show significantly higher apoptosis than free DOX.&lt;/p&gt;

	Loading of multiple drugs in a nanocarrier with high entrapment efficiency is important for combination therapy in cancer treatment. Here, a block copolymer comprising hydrophobic poly(epsilon-caprolactone) block with a defined number of pendent propargyl groups, polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether as a hydrophilic block, and a redox-responsive disulfide group at the block junction is synthesized using click chemistry and ring-opening polymerization (ROP). Benzaldehyde and thymine groups are introduced in the side chains for selective attachment of anti-cancer drugs, doxorubicin (DOX) and methotrexate (MTX), via the formation of pH-responsive imine linkage and hydrogen bonds, respectively. The drug-conjugated block copolymers are assembled into spherical micelles of &amp;lt; 200 nm, and the preferential release of DOX and MTX in response to acidic pH and redox conditions is shown. At pH 5, DOX release was 59.5%, and MTX release was 40% compared to 13% and 12% at pH 7.4, whereas at pH 5 with 10 mM GSH, a DOX release of 81.5% was observed after 48 h. Cellular uptake of drug-conjugated micelles and their apoptosis compared to free DOX in the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells is demonstrated. Caveolae-mediated endocytosis was found to be the major pathway used by drug-loaded nanocarriers.&lt;/p&gt;

	New aromatic copolyesters were synthesized by phase-transfer catalyzed interfacial polycondensation of 4,4 `-((3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methylene)bis(2-methoxyphenol) (DMBM) with isophthaloyl chloride (IPC) and a mixture of (50:50 mol %) IPC and terephthaloyl chloride (TPC). Additionally, a series of copolyesters was synthesized by polycondensation of varying compositions of DMBM and bisphenol A with IPC. Copolyesters exhibited inherent viscosity and Mn values in the range 0.59-0.98 dL/g and 15,840-49,460 g/mol, respectively, indicating formation of reasonably high molecular weight polymers. Copolyesters could be cast into tough, transparent and flexible films from chloroform solution. UV-vis measurements on films gave values of T400, T450 and cut-off wavelength in the range 80-84 %, 83-89 % and 324-334 nm, respectively. The formation of random copolyesters was evidenced by 13C NMR spectroscopic studies. Copolyesters exhibited good thermal stability with 10% weight loss temperature in the range 391-438 degrees C. The Tg values of copolyesters were in the range 162-180 degrees C and Tg values decreased with an increase in mol% content of DMBM. Copolyesters exhibited tensile strength, Young's modulus and elongation at break values in the range 83.55-70.68 MPa, 2.11-1.31 GPa and 10.52-5.45 %, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
