- Glucose-responsive gel from phenylborate polymer and poly(vinyl alcohol): Prompt response at physiological pH through the interaction of berate with amino group in the gel
-
Purpose. To design glucose-responsive gels based on the complexation between polymers having phenylboronic acid groups and poly (vinyl alcohol). Specifically, high-glucose sensitivity at physiological pH was achieved through the interaction of phenylborate with amino groups. Method. Terpolymers of m-acrylamidophenylbotonic acid, N,N-dimethylaminopropylacrylamide (DMAPAA), and N,N-dimethylacrylamide were prepared. DMAPAA was introduced in the terpolymer to stabilize phenylborate-polyol complex at physiological pH. The effect of amino groups on complex stabilization was estimated from viscosity as well as UV spectrum measurements. Results. A good correlation was observed between complexation rate and fraction of phenylborate as well as DMAPAA in the terpolymers. In line with this increased complexation rate, UV difference spectra measurement revealed that ionization of phenylboronic acid was facilitated in the terpolymer due to the interaction with DMAPAA. Further, sensitive change in the complexation rate was demonstrated with a variation in glucose concentration, which is in sharp contrast with the poor glucose-sensitivity of the polymer without DMAPAA. Conclusions. The introduction of an amino group into phenylborate polymers was quite effective for increasing the complexation ability and the glucose responsivity at physiological pH. These results suggest the feasibility of this complex-gel system in designing a self-regulated insulin-releasing device.

- Autonomous and Continuous Stimuli-Responsive Polymer Surface for Antibacterial Application through Enzymatic Self-Propagating Reactions
-
Stimuli-responsive polymer materials inspired by biological materials have invoked increasing research interest; however, they still suffer from limitations such as finite amplified responses and poor sensitivity of the unstimulated parts. Herein, a new strategy for creating H+-responsive polymer surfaces that are capable of transforming specific local fleeting stimuli into global macroscopic changes is described. The introduction of self-propagating reactions into the polymer-surface systems endows them with excellent stimuli-amplifying properties and response of the unstimulated parts. On the basis of this design, a polymer and enzymatic reaction were employed to enable a specific response to a stimulus and then lead to macroscopic changes of the surface. It is further shown that the prepared H+-responsive polymer surfaces can be employed for antibacterial application. This work provides a good example of achieving autonomously reconfigurable materials that respond to local fleeting stimuli.

An entirely new strategy is explored for directional transport delivery of antibiotics to bacteria utilizing a bacteria-activated nanoplatform. The nanoplatform can effectively prevent the premature leakage of the therapeutic payload, but release was triggered when the nanoplatforms adhere to bacteria, promising potential applications for the delivery of a wide-range of antimicrobials.

- Trisubstituted Imidazoles with a Rigidized Hinge Binding Motif Act As Single Digit nM Inhibitors of Clinically Relevant EGFR L858R/T790M and L858R/T790M/C797S Mutants: An Example of Target Hopping
-
The high genomic instability of non-small cell lung cancer tumors leads to the rapid development of resistance against promising EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). A recently detected triple mutation compromises the activity of the gold standard third-generation EGFR inhibitors. We have prepared a set of trisubstituted imidazoles with a rigidized 7-azaindole hinge binding motif as a new structural class of EGFR inhibitors by a target hopping approach from p38α MAPK inhibitor templates. On the basis of an iterative approach of docking, compound preparation, biological testing, and SAR interpretation, robust and flexible synthetic routes were established. As a result, we report two reversible inhibitors 11d and 11e of the clinically challenging triple mutant L858R/T790M/C797S with IC50 values in the low nanomolar range. Furthermore, we developed a kinome selective irreversible inhibitor 45a with an IC50 value of 1 nM against the EGFR L858R/T790M double mutant. Target binding kinetics and metabolic stability data are included. These potent mutant EGFR inhibitors may serve as a basis for the development of structurally novel EGFR probes, tools, or candidates.

- A glucose-sensitive autonomy type insulin release micro-gel carrier and its preparation method
-
The invention provides a glucose-sensitive self-regulated insulin release micro-gel carrier and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method of the glucose-sensitive self-regulated insulin release carrier comprises the following steps: performing free radical polymerization on three monomers namely 3-acryloyl aminophenylboronic acid, hydrophilic RGD polypeptide containing ethenyl functional groups and N-isopropylacrylamide to obtain a glucose-sensitive nano gel, and then combining the glucose-sensitive nano gel with insulin to obtain a medicine-loaded micro-gel. According to the glucose-sensitive self-regulated insulin release micro-gel carrier provided by the invention, the release of insulin can be automatically 'opened and closed' according to the changes of glucose concentrations at human body temperature.

- Phenylboronate-diol crosslinked glycopolymeric nanocarriers for insulin delivery at physiological pH
-
Research into polymers with glucose-sensitivity in physiological conditions has expanded recently due to their therapeutic potential in diabetes. Herein, to explore the glucose-responsive properties of a new polymer under physiological conditions, we synthesized an amphiphilic block glycopolymer based on phenylboronic acid and a carbohydrate, which was named poly(d- gluconamidoethyl methacrylate-block-3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid) (p(AAPBA-b-GAMA)). Based on the cross-linking between the diol groups of the carbohydrates and phenylboronic acid, the glycopolymers self-assembled to form nanoparticles (NPs). The glucose-sensitivity was revealed by the swelling behavior of the NPs at different glucose concentrations and was found to be dependent on the glucose level. The morphology of the NPs revealed by transmission electron microscopy showed that the NPs were spherical in shape with good dispersity. The cell viability of the NPs investigated by MTT assay was more than 90%, indicating that the glycopolymers had good cytocompatibility. Insulin could be loaded onto the glycopolymer NPs with high efficiency (up to 10%), and insulin release increased with enhancement of the glucose level in the medium. Such a glucose-responsive glycopolymer is an excellent candidate that holds great potential in the treatment of diabetes.
