Surface immobilised polymer brushes containing azobenzenes were prepared using microcontact chemistry and surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerisation. Two surfaces bearing brushes can be glued together in the presence of a β-cyclodextrin polymer.

Abstract Timely lysosome escape is very important for nanomedicines to avoid premature degradation. Herein, we report an exciting finding that phenylboronic acid (PBA) modification can greatly facilitate the lysosome escape of cylindrical polymer brushes (CPBs), and further promote their exocytosis and transcellular transfer. This fundamental finding for the first time reveals that PBA groups improve the tumor penetration of nanomaterials via an active transcytosis mechanism. We speculate that the mechanism of the PBA-enhanced lysosome escape is associated with the specific interactions of the PBA group with the lysosomal membrane proteins and hot shock proteins. The featured advantage of the PBA modification over the known lysosome escape strategies is that it does not cause significant adverse effects on the properties of the CPBs. Furthermore, doxorubicin was conjugated to the PBA-modified CPBs with drug loading content larger than 20%. This CPBs-based prodrug could eradicate the tumors established in mice by multiple intravenous administration.

AbstractWe investigated the interplay between different mechanisms of the lateral and vertical segregation in the synthesized via “grafting from” approach symmetric A/B (where A and B are poly(styrene-co-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene) and poly(methylmethacrylate), respectively) polymer brushes upon exposure to different solvents. We used X-ray photoemission electron spectroscopy and microscopy (X-PEEM), AFM, water contact angle measurements, and oxygen plasma etching to study morphology of the brushes. The ripple morphology after toluene (nonselective solvent) revealed elongated lamellar-like domains of A and B polymers alternating across the surface. The dimple-A morphology consisting of round clusters of the polymer A was observed after acetone (selective solvent for B). The top layer was enriched with the polymer B showing that the brush underwent both the lateral and vertical phase segregation. A qualitative agreement with predictions of SCF theory was found.
