Progress of In situ Polymerization within Cellular Microenvironment in Biomedical Applications
All the important biomacromolecules in cells are formed by the polymerization of small molecular monomers. Polymerization within cellular microenvironment is very common and important in cell metabolism. Thus
transfer of polymerization reactions from laboratory flasks to cellular microenvironment is expected to be a powerful and versatile tool for regulation of cellular function. Owing to the diversity and tunability of polymers
in situ
polymerization in cellular microenvironment may bring great possibilities for understanding
analysis and regulation of cellular function
which has great potential in the field of biomedicine. In this review
we summarize and classify
in situ
polymerization triggered by exogenous or endogenous stimuli (such as light
glutathione
reactive oxygen species
enzymes
etc
.) in the cell microenvironment. The applications of
in situ
polymerization in the field of antitumor therapy
nerve repair and antimicrobe are briefly introduced. Finally
the key challenges of
in situ
polymerization in organisms are discussed
and its future development is proposed.
