Anchoring Supramolecular Polymers to Human Red Blood Cells by Combining Dynamic Covalent and Non‐Covalent Chemistries
Abstract Understanding cell/material interactions is essential to design functional cell‐responsive materials. While the scientific literature abounds with formulations of biomimetic materials, only a fraction of them focused on mechanisms of the molecular interactions between cells and material.
Comblike Polymers with Topologically Different Side Chains for Surface Modification: Assembly Process and Interfacial Physicochemical Properties
Abstract The effects of side-chain topology within comblike polymers (CLPs) are revealed when these are assembled on inorganic surfaces to yield dense brush interfaces. CLPs featuring cyclic poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) (PAOXA) side chains and a surface-interacting backbone are less sterically hindered with respect to their linear graft-bearing analogues, show slower adsorption kinetics, and generate denser assemblies on TiO2 surfaces.
Chemical Design of Non‐Ionic Polymer Brushes as Biointerfaces: Poly(2‐oxazine)s Outperform Both Poly(2‐oxazoline)s and PEG
The era of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) brushes as a universal panacea for preventing non‐specific protein adsorption and providing lubrication to surfaces is coming to an end. In the functionalization of medical devices and implants, in addition to preventing non‐specific protein adsorption and cell adhesion, polymer‐brush formulations are often required to generate highly lubricious films.

Topology Effects on the Structural and Physicochemical Properties of Polymer Brushes
The application of polymer “brushes”, with their unique physicochemical properties, has led to a radical change in the way we functionalize biomaterials or formulate hybrids; however, their attractive traits can be largely surpassed by applying different polymer topologies, beyond the simple linear chain. Cyclic and loop brushes provide enhanced steric stabilization, improved biopassivity, and lubrication compared to their linear analogues.
