The transition from linear to highly branched poly(β-amino ester)s: Branching matters for gene delivery
Dezhong Zhou,Dezhong Zhou,Lara Cutlar,Yongsheng Gao,Wei Wang,Jonathan O'Keeffe-Ahern,Sean McMahon,Blanca Duarte,Fernando Larcher,Brian J. Rodriguez,Udo Greiser,Wenxin Wang,Wenxin Wang +12 more
TL;DR: The findings prove that the A2 + B3 + C2 approach is highly generalizable and flexible for the design and synthesis of HPAEs, which cannot be achieved by the conventional polymerization approach; H PAEs are more efficient vectors in gene transfection than the corresponding LPAEs.

Poly(ethylene glycol)-Based Hyperbranched Polymer from RAFT and Its Application as a Silver-Sulfadiazine-Loaded Antibacterial Hydrogel in Wound Care
Sean McMahon,Robert Kennedy,Patrick Duffy,Jeddah Marie Vasquez,J. Gerard Wall,Hongyun Tai,Wenxin Wang +6 more
TL;DR: In vitro toxicology evaluations demonstrated that this hydrogel-with low concentrations of encapsulated SSD-supported the survival of embedded human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) and inhibited growth of the aforementioned pathogens.
A chondroitin sulfate based injectable hydrogel for delivery of stem cells in cartilage regeneration
Xiaolin Li,Qian Xu,Melissa Johnson,Xi Wang,Jing Lyu,Yinghao Li,Sean McMahon,Udo Greiser,Sigen A,Wenxin Wang +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the combination of chondroitin sulfate (CS) and hyperbranched multifunctional PEG copolymer (HB-PEG) could synergistically promote cartilage repair.

Intramolecular Cyclization Dominating Homopolymerization of Multivinyl Monomers toward Single-Chain Cyclized/Knotted Polymeric Nanoparticles
Yongsheng Gao,Dezhong Zhou,Tianyu Zhao,Xuan Wei,Sean McMahon,Jonathan O’Keeffe Ahern,Wei Wang,Udo Greiser,Brian J. Rodriguez,Wenxin Wang +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the homopolymerization of acrylate based multivinyl monomers can be kinetically controlled via Cu0-mediated controlled/living radical polymerization in the presence of additional CuII, which enables the efficient promotion of intramolecular cyclization and suppression of intermolecular cross-linking.
