Abstract Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAAm) is the most well-known and widely used
stimuli-responsive polymer in the biomedical field owing to its ability to undergo temperature …

In 1996, the author reported “self-oscillating” polymer gels that spontaneously repeat
swelling–deswelling changes in a closed solution without any on–off switching by external …

In nature, interfacial molecular interactions are at the heart of all biological processes and
are mediated by diverse stimuli. Inspired by nature's responsive mechanisms and our …

Hepatic tissue engineering may be an effective approach for the treatment of liver disease;
however, its practical application requires hepatic cell separation technologies that do not …

The existing methods for exosome isolation, such as ultracentrifugation, size exclusion, and
affinity separation, suffer from some limitations. Herein, we aimed to develop temperature …

Recently, antibody drugs have been investigated for medical treatments of intractable
diseases. An effective antibody drug separation method is in demand for production of such …

Many thermoresponsive surfaces for biomedical applications have been developed using
various techniques for modifying substrates with thermoresponsive polymers. In addition …

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have beneficial effects in cell
transplantation therapy; these cells are collected from adipose tissue using low-invasive …

The use of poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide)(PNIPAAm) in thermoresponsive interfaces for
biomedical applications has been extensively investigated. Understanding the hydration …

Viral vectors have attracted attention as a potential new therapeutic modality for gene
therapy. In this study, we developed a temperature-modulated viral vector purification …
