Abstract Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogels are one of the most commonly studied thermoresponsive biomaterials. In this work, we investigate ball milling as a method producing PNIPAM nanogels and confirm that temperature responsiveness is maintained in nanogel form based on hydrodynamic diameter zeta potential measurements.

Endothelial keratoplasty is a recent shift in the surgical treatment of corneal endothelial dystrophies, where the dysfunctional endothelium is replaced whilst retaining the unaffected corneal layers. To overcome the limitation of donor corneal shortage, alternative use of tissue engineered constructs is being researched. Tissue constructs with intact extracellular matrix are generated using st...

Unlike tumor biopsies that can be constrained by problems such as sampling bias, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are regarded as the "liquid biopsy" of the tumor, providing convenient access to all disease sites, including primary tumor and fatal metastases. Although enumerating CTCs is of prognostic significance in solid tumors, it is conceivable that performing molecular and functional analyse...

Hydrogel particles are versatile materials that provide exquisite, tunable control over the sequestration and delivery of materials in pharmaceutics, tissue engineering, and photonics. The favorable properties of hydrogel particles depend largely on their size, and particles ranging from nanometers to micrometers are used in different applications. Previous studies have only successfully fabric...

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a debilitating ischemic disease caused by vascular occlusion. Pro-angiogenic therapeutics have the potential to produce collateral vasculature, delaying or negating the need for amputation or invasive revascularisation. Thermoresponsive hydrogels can provide an in situ depot for the sustained release of drugs and provide protection and cohesion for encapsulated c...

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) with a narrow molecular weight distribution was prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) radical polymerization. A dithioester group at the chain end of PNIPAM thus prepared was cleaved by treating with 2-ethanolamine to provide thiol-terminated PNIPAM with which gold nanoparticles were coated via reactions of the terminal thiol wi...

For nearly a decade, thermoresponsive ophthalmic in situ gels have been recognized as an interesting and promising ocular topical delivery vehicle for lipophilic drugs. In this study, a series of thermosensitive copolymers, hyaluronic acid-g-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (HA-g-PNIPAAm), was synthesized, by coupling carboxylic end-capped PNIPAAm to aminated hyaluronic acid through amide bond linka...

Remote-controlled nanocarriers for drug delivery are of great promise to provide timely, sensitive and spatiotemporally selective treatments for cancer therapy. Due to convenient and precise manipulation, deep penetration through tissues and excellent biocompatibility, near-infrared (NIR) irradiation is a preferred external stimulus for triggering the release of loaded drugs. In this work, for ...

Healthy cells are required in large numbers to form a tissue-engineered construct and primary cells must therefore be increased in number in a process termed 'expansion'. There are significant problems with existing procedures, including cell injury and an associated loss of phenotype, but three-dimensional culture has been reported to offer a solution. Reversible gels, which allow for the reco...
