However, to the best of authors' knowledge, there has not been any comprehensive review of AR-based assembly systems. This paper aims to provide a concise overview of the technical features, characteristics and broad range of applications of AR- based assembly systems published between 1990 and 2015. Among these selected articles, two thirds of them were published between 2005 and 2015, and they are considered as recent pertinent works which will be discussed in detail. In addition, the current limitation factors and future trends in the development will also be discussed.展开更多

Calixarenes, with diversified features, have been widely applied into drug delivery systems, which can respond to multi-stimuli and exhibit excellent performance. In this mini-review, we summarize the recent advances on controlled drug delivery systems based on calixarenes, in the form of inclusion complexes, amphiphilic self-assembly nanocarriers including micelles, hydrogels, vesicles and liposomes, and supramolecular nanovalves on mesoporous silica nanomaterials.展开更多
