Abstract
Antibody drugs play a vital role in diagnostics and therapy. However, producing antibodies from mammalian cells is challenging owing to cellular heterogeneity, which can be addressed by applying droplet-based microfluidic platforms for high-throughput screening (HTS). Here, we designed an integrated system based on disulfide-bonded redox-responsive hydrogel beads (redox-HBs), which were prepared through enzymatic hydrogelation, to compartmentalize, screen, select, retrieve, and recover selected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells secreting high levels of antibodies. Moreover, redox-HBs were functionalized with protein G as an antibody-binding module to capture antibodies secreted from encapsulated cells. As proof-of-concept, cells co-producing immunoglobulin G (IgG) as the antibody and green fluorescent protein (GFP) as the reporter molecule, denoted as CHO(IgG/GFP), were encapsulated into functionalized redox-HBs. Additionally, antibody-secreting cells were labeled with protein L-conjugated horseradish peroxidase using a tyramide amplification system, enabling fluorescence staining of the antibody captured inside the beads. Redox-HBs were then applied to fluorescence-activated droplet sorting, and selected redox-HBs were degraded by reducing the disulfide bonds to recover the target cells. The results indicated the potential of the developed HTS platform for selecting a single cell viable for biopharmaceutical production.

Abstract
Droplet-based high-throughput screening systems are an emerging technology that provides a quick test to screen millions of cells with distinctive characteristics. Biopharmaceuticals, specifically therapeutic proteins, are produced by culturing cells that secrete heterologous recombinant proteins with different populations and expression levels; therefore, a technology to discriminate cells that produce more target proteins is needed. Here, we present a droplet-based microfluidic strategy for encapsulating, screening, and selecting target cells with redox-responsive hydrogel beads (HBs). As a proof-of-concept study, we demonstrate the enrichment of hybridoma cells with enhanced capability of antibody secretion using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-catalyzed hydrogelation of tetra-thiolate poly(ethylene glycol); hybridoma cells were encapsulated in disulfide-bonded HBs. Recombinant protein G or protein M with a C-terminal cysteine residue was installed in the HBs via disulfide bonding to capture antibodies secreted from the cells. HBs were fluorescently stained by adding the protein L-HRP conjugate using a tyramide signal amplification system. HBs were then separated by fluorescence-activated droplet sorting and degraded by reducing the disulfide bonds to recover the target cells. Finally, we succeeded in the selection of hybridoma cells with enhanced antibody secretion, indicating the potential of this system in the therapeutic protein production.

Abstract
Liquid marbles (LMs) are nonsticking droplets whose surfaces are covered with low-wettability particles. Owing to their high mobility, shape reconfigurability, and widely accessible liquid/particle possibilities, the research on LMs has flourished since 2001. Their physical properties, fabrication mechanisms, and functionalisation capabilities indicate their potential for various applications. This review summarises the fundamental properties of LMs, the recent advances (mainly works published in 2020-2023) in the concept of LMs, physical properties, formation methods, LM-templated material design, and biochemical applications. Finally, the potential development and variations of LMs are discussed.

Abstract
Three-dimensional cell culture technology (3DCC) sits between two-dimensional cell culture (2DCC) and animal models and is widely used in oncology research. Compared to 2DCC, 3DCC allows cells to grow in a three-dimensional space, better simulating the in vivo growth environment of tumors, including hypoxia, nutrient concentration gradients, micro angiogenesis mimicism, and the interaction between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment matrix. 3DCC has unparalleled advantages when compared to animal models, being more controllable, operable, and convenient. This review summarizes the comparison between 2DCC and 3DCC, as well as recent advances in different methods to obtain 3D models and their respective advantages and disadvantages.

Abstract
Globally, liver cancer, which is one of the major cancers worldwide, has attracted the growing attention of technological researchers for its high mortality and limited treatment options. Hydrogels are soft 3D network materials containing a large number of hydrophilic monomers. By adding moieties such as nitrobenzyl groups to the network structure of a cross-linked nanocomposite hydrogel, the click reaction improves drug-release efficiency in vivo, which improves the survival rate and prolongs the survival time of liver cancer patients. The application of a nanocomposite hydrogel drug delivery system can not only enrich the drug concentration at the tumor site for a long time but also effectively prevents the distant metastasis of residual tumor cells. At present, a large number of researches have been working toward the construction of responsive nanocomposite hydrogel drug delivery systems, but there are few comprehensive articles to systematically summarize these discoveries. Here, this systematic review summarizes the synthesis methods and related applications of nanocomposite responsive hydrogels with actions to external or internal physiological stimuli. With different physical or chemical stimuli, the structural unit rearrangement and the controlled release of drugs can be used for responsive drug delivery in different states.

Abstract
In this second part of our systematic review on the research area of 3D cell culture in micro-bioreactors we give a detailed description of the published work with regard to the existing micro-bioreactor types and their applications, and highlight important results gathered with the respective systems. As an interesting detail, we found that micro-bioreactors have already been used in SARS-CoV research prior to the SARS-CoV2 pandemic. As our literature research revealed a variety of 3D cell culture configurations in the examined bioreactor systems, we defined in review part one “complexity levels” by means of the corresponding 3D cell culture techniques applied in the systems. The definition of the complexity is thereby based on the knowledge that the spatial distribution of cell-extracellular matrix interactions and the spatial distribution of homologous and heterologous cell–cell contacts play an important role in modulating cell functions. Because at least one of these parameters can be assigned to the 3D cell culture techniques discussed in the present review, we structured the studies according to the complexity levels applied in the MBR systems.
