Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) are highly branched macromolecules with a three-dimensional dendritic architecture. Due to their unique topological structure and interesting physical/chemical properties, HBPs have attracted wide attention from both academia and industry. In this paper, the recent developments in HBP self-assembly and their biomedical applications have been comprehensively reviewed. Many delicate supramolecular structures from zero-dimension (0D) to three-dimension (3D), such as micelles, fibers, tubes, vesicles, membranes, large compound vesicles and physical gels, have been prepared through the solution or interfacial self-assembly of amphiphilic HBPs. In addition, these supramolecular structures have shown promising applications in the biomedical areas including drug delivery, protein purification/detection/delivery, gene transfection, antibacterial/antifouling materials and cytomimetic chemistry. Such developments promote the interdiscipline researches among surpramolecular chemistry, biomedical chemistry, nano-technology and functional materials.
超支化聚合物(HBPs)是具有三维树枝状结构的高度支化的大分子。由于其独特的拓扑结构和有趣的物理/化学性质,HBPs 引起了学术界和工业界的广泛关注。本文全面综述了 HBP 自组装及其在生物医学中的应用的最新进展。通过两亲性 HBPs 的溶液或界面自组装,可以制备出许多从零维(0D)到三维(3D)的精细超分子结构,如胶束、纤维、管、囊泡、膜、大复合囊泡和物理凝胶。此外,这些超分子结构在药物传递、蛋白质纯化/检测/传递、基因转染、抗菌/抗污材料和细胞模拟化学等生物医学领域表现出了很有前景的应用。这些发展促进了超分子化学、生物医学化学、纳米技术和功能材料等多个学科之间的交叉研究。
