Abstract
Polymer synthesis via multicomponent reactions (MCRs) has opened avenues in polymer chemistry and led to the development of various types of functional polymers. Herein, we developed a strategy to prepare multifunctional polymers via the successive modification of dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-thione (DHPMT), which can be generated by the tricomponent Biginelli reaction. Four hydrophobic polymers were efficiently prepared by using DHPMT derivatives. These polymers can be dip-coated onto the oxidized copper mesh to obtain superhydrophobic meshes because of the strong attractive forces between the DHPMT derivatives and Cu(II). The optimized mesh has self-cleaning properties and outstanding stability in various liquid environments; it has also been successfully applied for oil/water separation with high separation efficiency and good durability. These results demonstrate that successive modification of DHPMT is a promising method for fabricating multifunctional polymers, which may have applications in polymer chemistry and materials science.

Abstract
Due to protection of extracellular polymeric substances, the therapeutic efficiency of conventional antimicrobial agents is often impeded by their poor infiltration and accumulation in biofilm. Herein, one type of surface charge adaptable nitric oxide (NO) nanogenerator was developed for biofilm permeation, retention and eradication. This nanogenerator (PDG@Au-NO/PBAM) is composed of a core-shell structure: thermo-sensitive NO donor conjugated AuNPs on cationic poly(dopamine-co-glucosamine) nanoparticle (PDG@Au-NO) served as core, and anionic phenylboronic acid-acryloylmorpholine (PBAM) copolymer was employed as a shell. The NO nanogenerator featured long circulation and good biocompatibility. Once the nanogenerator reached acidic biofilm, its surface charge would be switched to positive after shell dissociation and cationic core exposure, which was conducive for the nanogenerator to infiltrate and accumulate in the depth of biofilm. In addition, the nanogenerator could sustainably generate NO to disturb the integrity of biofilm at physiological temperature, then generate hyperthermia and explosive NO release upon NIR irradiation to efficiently eradicate drug-resistant bacteria biofilm. Such rational design offers a promising approach for developing nanosystems against biofilm-associated infections.

Abstract
Diabetic chronic wounds entail enormous psychological and economic burdens on diabetic patients. Traditional types of wound dressings lack diversity in their functions and do not have sufficient adaptability to the wound environment, which makes it difficult to meet the complicated needs arising during the healing process when they are used. Stimuli-responsive hydrogels respond specifically to the special environment of the wound area, for example, temperature, pH, glucose, etc., and achieve on-demand release by loading active substances, which effectively promotes diabetic wound healing. Herein, based on the research progress in stimulus-responsive wound dressings in recent years and the relevant work of our research team, we summarized and discussed hydrogel wound dressings responsive to temperature, pH, glucose, reactive oxygen species, enzymes, and multiple stimuli. Based on the special physiological environment of diabetic wounds, hydrogels with single or multiple stimuli-responsive properties can be designed so that they can release drugs on demand and improve the microenvironment of the wound, thus meeting the specific needs of different stages of wound healing. Although stimuli-responsive hydrogels currently show excellent therapeutic potential, there is still room for further development-cells or cytokines loaded in wound dressings usually act only at specific healing stages and the timing needs to be precisely controlled in order to avoid counterproductive effects on wound healing. In addition, the construction of sensor-therapeutic integrated devices for real-time monitoring of wound biochemical indicators so that drugs are release on demand and with precision to promote wound healing is also one of the topics that deserve more attention from researchers.

Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2023; 184:125-138.

Abstract
In this study, nanofibrous polymeric matrices were successfully developed with nanoclay, montmorillonite (MMT) and various boron (B) compounds, which were known to have positive effects on the wound healing with elevated antibacterial properties. For this purpose, MMT was modified with quaternary ammonium salt, trimethyl octadecyl ammonium bromide (TMOD), and boron compounds, boron nitride (BN), zinc borate (ZB), or phenylboronic acid (PBA) were adsorbed on organomodified MMT (OMMT). Then, poly (lactic acid) (PLA) based nanofibrous PLA-OMMT/B composites were fabricated via electrospinning. Modification of MMT nanoparticles with TMOD occurred through ion-exchange reaction and led to better homogenous fibrous structures which exhibited dramatic inhibition for gram-positive bacteria. Moreover, composites with ZB and PBA demonstrated both bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects for gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The chemical structures of the matrices were evaluated through ATR-FTIR and supported the intercalated composite formation. The thermal and mechanical stabilities of PLA matrices were also enhanced after OMMT and B incorporation. The lowest breaking strain value was recorded for PLA-OMMT/PBA composite compared to other B composites. The 100% and 50% extracts of the PLA-OMMT matrices showed modest cytotoxic effect on the human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) on the second day culture that probably originated from TMOD. These results demonstrated that PLA-OMMT/B matrices, especially PBA including matrices, can be used as replaceable wound dressings that have limited interaction with cells but exhibit antibacterial activity and support the early stages of wound healing both morphologically and chemically.

Abstract
Poor wound healing after diabetes mellitus remains a challenging problem, and its pathophysiological mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. Persistent bleeding, disturbed regulation of inflammation, blocked cell proliferation, susceptible infection and impaired tissue remodeling are the main features of diabetic wound healing. Conventional wound dressings, including gauze, films and bandages, have a limited function. They generally act as physical barriers and absorbers of exudates, which fail to meet the requirements of the whol diabetic wound healing process. Wounds in diabetic patients typically heal slowly and are susceptible to infection due to hyperglycemia within the wound bed. Once bacterial cells develop into biofilms, diabetic wounds will exhibit robust drug resistance. Recently, the application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels, also known as "smart hydrogels", for diabetic wound healing has attracted particular attention. The basic feature of this system is its capacities to change mechanical properties, swelling ability, hydrophilicity, permeability of biologically active molecules, etc., in response to various stimuli, including temperature, potential of hydrogen (pH), protease and other biological factors. Smart hydrogels can improve therapeutic efficacy and limit total toxicity according to the characteristics of diabetic wounds. In this review, we summarized the mechanism and application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels for diabetic wound healing. It is hoped that this work will provide some inspiration and suggestions for research in this field.

Abstract
Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have been used to prepare polymers with appealing functions. The Biginelli reaction, one of the oldest and most famous MCRs, has sparked new scientific discoveries in polymer chemistry since 2013. Recent years have seen the Biginelli reaction stepping further from simple coupling tools; for example, the functions of the Biginelli product 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-(thi)ones (DHPM(T)) have been gradually exploited to develop new functional polymers. In this mini-review, we mainly summarize the recent progress of using the Biginelli reaction to identify polymers for biomedical applications. These polymers have been documented as antioxidants, anticancer agents, and bio-imaging probes. Moreover, we also provide a brief introduction to some emerging applications of the Biginelli reaction in materials and polymer science. Finally, we present our perspectives for the further development of the Biginelli reaction in polymer chemistry.

Abstract
The incorporation of a phenylboronic acid group has appeared as an attractive strategy to build smart drug delivery systems. Here, we report novel synthesis of phenylboronic acid-functionalized copolypeptides based on an l-boronophenylalanine N-carboxyanhydride (BPA-NCA) monomer and their application for robust co-encapsulation and responsive release of dual anticancer drugs. By employing different poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) initiators and copolymerizing with varying NCA monomers, linear and star PEG-poly(l-boronophenylalanine) copolymers (PEG-PBPA, star-PEG-PBPA), PEG-poly(l-tyrosine-co-l-boronophenylalanine) [PEG-P(Tyr-co-BPA)], PEG-poly(l-lysine-co-l-boronophenylalanine) [PEG-P(Lys-co-BPA)], and PEG-poly(β-benzyl-l-aspartate-co-l-boronophenylalanine) [PEG-P(BLA-co-BPA)] were obtained with controlled compositions. Interestingly, PEG-PBPA self-assembled into uniform micellar nanoparticles that mediated robust co-encapsulation and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and acid-responsive release of dual antitumor drugs, curcumin (Cur) and sorafenib tosylate (Sor). These dual drug-loaded nanoparticles (PBN-Cur/Sor) exhibited a greatly enhanced anticancer effect toward U87 MG-luciferase glioblastoma cells. The facile synthesis of phenylboronic acid-functionalized copolypeptides from BPA coupled with their robust drug loading and responsive drug release behaviors make them interesting for construction of smart cancer nanomedicines.
