Adhesion of Antibody-Functionalized Polymersomes
Langmuir, 2006Polymersomes are vesicles made from synthetic block copolymers. The adhesiveness of micron-sized polymersomes, functionalized with antibodies that bind to vascular cell adhesion molecules, which could be useful for vascular targeting, was measured. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule whose expression ...

A review of polypeptide-based polymersomes
Biomaterials, 2014Self-assembled systems from biodegradable amphiphilic polymers at the nanometer scale, such as nanotubes, nanoparticles, polymer micelles, nanogels, and polymersomes, have attracted much attention especially in biomedical fields. Among these nano-aggregates, polymersomes have attracted tremendous interests as versatile carriers due to their colloidal ...

Membrane Stabilization of Biodegradable Polymersomes
Langmuir, 2009Biodegradable polymersomes are promising vehicles for a range of applications. Their stabilization would improve many properties, including the retention and controlled release of polymersome contents, yet this has not been previously accomplished. Here, we present the first example of stabilizing fully biodegradable polymersomes through acrylation of ...

Structural and mechanical characteristics of polymersomes
Soft Matter, 2014Polymersomes self-assembled from amphiphilic macromolecules have attracted growing attention because of their multifunctionality and stability. By controlling the structural characteristics of polymersomes, including vesicle shape, size, and membrane thickness, their mechanical and transport properties as well as their fusion behavior can be ...

Can Polymersomes Form Colloidosomes?
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2012Hydroxy-functionalized polymersomes (or block copolymer vesicles) were prepared via a facile one-pot RAFT aqueous dispersion polymerization protocol and evaluated as Pickering emulsifiers for the stabilization of emulsions of n-dodecane emulsion droplets in water.

Intercompartmental enzymatic cascade in channel-equipped polymersome-in-polymersome architectures
J. Mater. Chem. BCompartmentalization as a design principle is prerequisite for the functioning of eukaryotic cells. Although cell mimics in the form of single vesicular compartments such as liposomes or polymersomes have been tremendously successful investigations of the corresponding higher order architectures in particular bilayer based multicompartment vesicles ...
